It was a departure for her, for sure. Maybe she didn't enjoy making serious movies when she did them. I can imagine depending on some people's personalities they'd def prefer light rom-coms vs heavy, darker stories.

I never understood this weird "animosity" towards JA. Yeah, most of her movies are fluff, but she's good at it. She doesn't seem like she's gunning for an Oscar or anything so just let her be lol.

She most certainly gunned for an Oscar with Cake. She hired one of the best Oscar strategists (Lisa Tayback) because apparently that is how you win an Oscar.

Jen worked the Oscar campaign for 6 months. She got all her famous friends to push for a nomination by hosting Cake screenings, The Oscar strategist even got her on Dr Oz to talk about something or other. Pain I think. Tayback got People magazine to give her an award. Jen was everywhere that year, building momentum.

It didn't work though. Possibly Tayback's only failure.

Some think there's animosity when discussing Jen's career. But in my mind, we're watching her play the Hollywood game and that's what interests me.

I think there are other ways to win an Oscar and the other Jen figured it out pretty quick. :graucho:

My point! Somehow most show up in a few more mags or are "caught" out shopping a couple extra times lol All of them that had movies come out are doing the talk shows already.

I agree. I don't see JA as this PR machine. I rarely see an article about her and none of the rare photos we do see of her "out and about" seem staged.

JA absolutely did campaign and did a few extra "out and about" staged walks...but they all do it when they're in the hunt for an award or have a movie that's about to drop. It's really not that big of a deal.

I didn’t say she never does it, but compared to others like Jennifer L. where I am seeing 5 articles daily, or daily pap walks like AJ, it’s seems small in comparison.

I got it done... And I regretted every second of it until I grew out. People forgot to mention she has naturally wavy, thick hair. My straight, fine hair had cowlicks all over the damn place.

I had it. But I got it cut by a guy that lived in another town and he made it look fantastic when he did it. But I couldn't do it that well. I do have thick, curly hair.

I tried to find something on her refusing to change her hair for the movie. Didn't find that but did find an article where she said she likes her longer, highlighted hair. Says she regretted it when she cut the bob.

I was watching friends and it was when she had that cut... I really loved that cut.

I loved that haircut, too.
