So she shills for a hair product, a skin care product and now is repping Emirates Airlines.

I keep reading about the over-the-top-luxury of this airline and who wouldn't want to take a shower while in the air and how the seats are the size of a NYC apartment.

Only problem, if the plane has technical difficulties and has to land in Iran, you're on your own.

Aww I actually love Tehran... Emirates usually uses Dubai as its "main airport" doesn't it? It has some great connections between Europe and Asia & the Pacific, I've flown with them quite a few times. I'm obviously not in the free champagne and luxury shower areas that Aniston is campaigning for though :laugh:
 
Yes, it is very snobbish to her middle America fans who think of her as the girl next door.

We see her whining about not being able to take a shower on a regular airplane. She's going very off brand with this, for the paycheque.

Thing is, many of us already knew she wasn't the friend who would hang with you, she's the rich celebrity who would leave you behind to ride in her limo and take a shower on Emirates. Unless you can afford it and then you can ride with her too.

Imagine Kris Jenner in this Emirates commercial. Now, is it cute or elitist?

Jennifer Aniston is hardly "the girl next door". Anyone who thinks she is and identifies with her because of that is delusional. The commercial is directed at those who can afford to fly on that airline...not for the likes of us who will never fly business class or first class unless we are lucky enough to be upgraded!

So, who is her fan base? Who is her audience, if not middle America, who thinks of her as a friend?

Okay, but if the plane has to make an emergency landing somewhere in Iran, you're still on your own. lol
 
The ad was clearly meant to be a joke/making fun. I didn't realize people were taking it seriously:oh:

I didn't think people were taking it seriously, although I do think there are many people who think she is America's sweetheart and can relate to her for some unknown reason.

I also think she is going off-brand and this is something a more elitist celeb would do. She's is the face of this airline at the moment, after all. It's not a one and done.

They are not the audience for that commercial! I think it is unrealistic to expect that Jennifer Aniston pick all of her commercial projects with her fan base in mind. She also does Aveeno ads...this airline paid her 5 million...I wouldn't expect her to turn that down. The commercial isn't harmful to anyone.

Yes they use Dubai and it's a pretty great airline, along with Qatar Airways.

Why Iran, though? It could be anywhere with low population or something, lol.
