Last week’s issue of OK! Magazine featured “Jen’s Shocking Decision – I Will Never Remarry” on the cover. Bullet points claimed the 40 year-old actress “realizes she’ll never find another Brad,” but that “she’ll still be a mom this year!”

Given the latest report from OK! I think it’s safe to assume that Aniston and/or her publicist have done something to offend the usually celebrity-friendly glossy. OK! claims that Aniston isn’t being particularly friendly to cast and crew on the NY set of the comedy she’s filming, The Baster, and they even go so far as to call her an “ice queen.” All she did was eat in her trailer to avoid the paparazzi, though:

It was like being at a new school on the first day of class for superstar Jennifer Anistonon Monday, as she began work on the NYC set of her upcoming film, The Baster.

The former Friend spent her day inside Greenwich Village restaurant Barbuto, shooting an awkward date scene with co-star Jason Bateman. The set-up involved the actors sitting at a booth inside the restaurant attempting to have a conversation.

Perhaps Jen was trying to stay in character between takes, because witnesses tell OK! wasn’t any friendlier when the cameras stopped rolling. “Jen kept mostly to herself,” one on-set source reveals. “She didn’t talk to anyone during the breaks.”

Though some Baster insiders tell OK! that Jen is “sweet and totally normal,” she’s not doing a great job of convincing everyone of that fact. In fact, on her first day on the set, she held up shooting because her hair wasn’t perfect.

“In the morning, the cast and crew had to wait to start filming without Jen because she asked for extra time to finishing blow-drying her hair,” reveals one source.

And when the lunch bell rang, not only did Jen not deign to eat her Cobb salad in the company of her new co-workers, she actually had herself driven to her trailer so she could eat alone!

“Jen refused to walk even a step outside the restaurant during the break for lunch,” says an insider. “She had her car pull up right next to the restaurant so she could be driven less than a block to her trailer to avoid photographers.”

If you carefully read this story from OK!, Aniston wasn’t trying to avoid her co-workers by eating along, she was trying to avoid the swarming paparazzi. Photographers can be incredibly invasive and they often shout obnoxious things at celebrities trying to get a response. You don’t blame her for not eating with everyone else if that means that she’s going to be photographed and heckled the whole time. What’s more is that she may have had the best interests of the cast and crew in mind by deciding to eat alone in her trailer. That way, they would be able to eat in peace instead of being bothered by photographers trying to get shots of her the whole time.

OK! decided to make it sound like Aniston was snubbing the people she works with though, and titled this article “Jen Aniston’s Ice Queen Antics on Baster Set.” She’s not my favorite person, but I doubt she’s a snob. Aniston usually comes across as friendly and kind in interviews and people who’ve worked with her say she’s approachable. OK! seems to have an issue with her and is looking for something to nitpick about. Maybe it’s true that she kept mostly to herself on the first day, but she might just take time to warm up to people. That’s doesn’t mean she’s an “ice queen.” I’m a little shy too on the first day at a new workplace and try to focus on the job. Stories like this really make me think that Aniston is damned no matter what she does.
