A single gesture during the Golden Globes managed to reignite the age-old feud between Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston, two actresses forever linked by their shared history with Brad Pitt.
The awards ceremony, a significant platform for Hollywood to address the prevalent s---al misconduct issues, witnessed an unexpected encounter between the two women, sparking a flurry of comments on social media.
As anticipation swirled around the joint appearance of Jolie and Aniston, who were both slated to present awards, the reality played out differently. Each took the stage separately, with Jolie presenting an award alongside her son Pax and Aniston presenting another.
However, it was during Aniston's moment in the spotlight that the internet erupted with criticism over an unflattering gesture from Jolie. As Aniston delivered her presentation, Jolie, seemingly indifferent, focused on touching up her makeup without acknowledging the stage.
The animosity between Jolie and Aniston has a history dating back to 2005. The tumultuous love affair between Brad Pitt and Jolie during the filming of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" marked the beginning of the end for Pitt's marriage to Aniston. The subsequent divorce was highly publicized, attributing Pitt's alleged infidelity as a catalyst. Both actresses found themselves united by their connection to Pitt, a connection that persisted even after Jolie and Pitt's highly publicized split in 2016.
In the aftermath of her divorce, Jolie sought forgiveness from Aniston for not being the husband she deserved, according to reports from Life & Style magazine. Although Aniston initially expressed deep hurt over the situation, the passage of time has seen the two actresses reconcile, evolving from former foes to friends once again.
The Golden Globes incident has once again thrust the spotlight on the uneasy relationship between Jolie and Aniston, providing social media users with fresh fodder for debate and speculation. The dynamics between these Hollywood stars continue to captivate public attention, leaving many wondering if the wounds of the past have truly healed or if new tensions are brewing beneath the surface.
