Jennifer Aniston admits she`s often the butt of jokes

Washington: American actress Jennifer Aniston has admitted that people often laugh at her. “People laugh at me. Sometimes I know why, and sometimes I don’t,” Aniston told the September issue of Harper’s Bazaar.

“But I can pretty much find humor in anything. That is a necessary part of life. I don’t want to say laughter is healing, because it sounds corny, but it’s a release,” the 41-year-old actress added. Aniston has, meanwhile, compared herself to Barbra Streisand. Aniston has channeled 68-year-old Barbra Streisand’s iconic poses from ‘Funny Girl’ and ‘What’s Up, Doc?’ in Harper’s Bazaar magazine. “Barbra and I are people who have been put in the spotlight, for better or for worse, and you just keep riding, and you keep overcoming,” Us Magazine quoted Aniston as saying. “Barbra inspires me because there isn’t anything she hasn’t done that she wanted to do, especially as a female in the time when her generation was prime. She`s a true renais­sance woman. I had a long conversation with Barbra about directing because I directed a short a couple years ago, and if I don’t do it again soon, I’m going to burst out of my skin. And we also love interior design,” she added. ANI
