Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler were seen arm-in-arm at the premiere of their movie 'The Bounty Hunter' at New York last night.
The famous ‘Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston is a constant headline-grabber, and this time round she is in the news for her alleged closeness with co-star Gerard Butler.
Jennifer and Gerard were seen cozying up at the New York premiere of their upcoming romantic comedy titled ‘The Bounty Hunter’ last night.
And the rumor mills are busy spinning once again after Jennifer’s revelation that ‘they clicked’ while shooting for the movie.
Gerard, too, confirmed the rumors on their alleged link up last night when he hinted that Aniston was his “most treasured possession.” And Jennifer added, “He's a guy and he's also got a heart.”
Jennifer negates that the linkup rumors are geared towards publicity
While the media is rife with stories about the duo’s romantic interest in each other, Jennifer maintains that the two share a genuine and platonic relationship. And their closeness has nothing to do with publicity for the movie, she insists.
The beautiful actor remarks, “You know there's all this stuff about calculating... that me and Gerry are in this fake relationship for the press of our movie or the selling of it.”
“It's just so insulting at the same time, but again it's the story... I'm getting to a better place in understanding that they're just making money,” she insists.
Jennifer breaks her fashion trend
Jennifer stunned everyone when she appeared on the red carpet at the premiere night in a nude-colored, Grecian jersey dress designed by Donna Karen that complemented her perfectly toned figure.
But the most striking attention-grabbing element was her over-friendly behavior towards Gerard Butler. Both kept complimenting each other the whole night.
‘Jennifer is like family,’ says Gerard
Countering rumors about a romantic liaison with Jennifer, the Scottish actor admits that the two are ‘good friends’ and that Jennifer Aniston was like family for him.
The 40-year-old actor insists, “I literally became a member of her family. I went down for her birthday in Mexico. Of course, everyone takes that as something else, but we are very good friends.”
Both flirted on the sets of ‘Bounty Hunter’
Reports confirm that the duo flirted constantly with each other during the shooting of their new movie.
Director Andy Tennant confirmed that the duo made a great pair and “had a good time” during the shooting of the movie.
He says, “When you have that chemistry (between actors) you're like 'Thank God!' because they're having fun on day 45 and day 65 and they're still flirting.”
“Gerry likes to have fun, Jen likes to have fun, they don't take themselves seriously - which is a big mistake people assume with Jennifer, but she's a riot! So we went out [during filming] and had a good time,” he further said.
