The guest list was newsworthy in itself,featuring names such as Barbra Streisand,Diane Keaton,Sandra Bullock,Orlando Bloom,Robert Downey jnr,Ellen DeGeneres and George and Amal Clooney. It also had an average guest age of about 53,which is generally more applicable to wakes than Hollywood parties.
In a solid rebuke to tabloid nonsense,she also invited a few of her exes,most surprisingly Pitt but also John Mayer,who once admitted the pair split over his tweeting habit. (For what it's worth,Mayer also described her as the"most communicative,sweetest,kindest person";Aniston is the queen of gold ratings from exes.)
She extended the favour to her friends'exes,inviting Pitt's one-time partner Gwyneth Paltrow,Mayer's ex Katy Perry,and the long-divorced Courtney Cox and David Arquette,spreading the forgiveness vibes across the do. Odd move,some might say?"Get over it,we're all still rich and more-or-less beautiful,let's party"appears to be Aniston's reply.
