Jennifer Aniston is no stranger to speculation.

From her divorce with Brad Pitt to whispers about secret romances, the actress has spent decades dodging headlines that seem too wild to be true.

But this time, she decided to confront them head-on โ€” with a mix of humor, candor, and just enough mystery to keep people talking.

The moment came during a wide-ranging sit-down for a magazine profile, when the interviewer asked about her current relationship status.

Aniston smiled, sipped her coffee, and said, โ€œWell, at least no oneโ€™s marrying me off to Brad every other week anymoreโ€ฆ though apparently Iโ€™m having affairs with Presidents now.

It was a reference to a bizarre rumor that surfaced online earlier this year, suggesting she had been romantically linked to former U.S.

President Barack Obama โ€” a claim with zero evidence but plenty of viral traction on social media.

Aniston rolled her eyes at the mention of it.

โ€œThat one made me laugh,โ€ she said.

โ€œIโ€™ve never even been in the same room as Barack Obama.

I respect him enormously, butโ€ฆ I mean, come on.

The actress then turned to the subject of Brad Pitt โ€” carefully, but without the guarded tone sheโ€™s used in the past.

โ€œBrad and Iโ€ฆ weโ€™re fine,โ€ she said simply.

โ€œWeโ€™ve known each other for a long time.

Thereโ€™s history there, sure.

But the world has this obsession with making it more than it is.

Weโ€™re not getting back together, weโ€™re not enemies.

Weโ€™reโ€ฆ just fine.

Fans will remember that the two exes sent the internet into meltdown in early 2020 when they were photographed warmly greeting each other backstage at the SAG Awards.

That single handshake became a week-long media frenzy, with headlines suggesting a reconciliation was inevitable.

Aniston says moments like that are often taken out of context.

โ€œWeโ€™re two people who went through something very public together,โ€ she explained.

โ€œAnd now, we can be kind and respectful.

Thatโ€™s it.

The rest is fantasy.

On the Obama rumor, she was more playful.

โ€œHonestly, Iโ€™m flattered.

If youโ€™re going to make up a story, at least you picked someone amazing.

But letโ€™s be real โ€” that one goes straight in the fiction file.

Still, she admits the constant swirl of misinformation has its toll.

โ€œItโ€™s exhausting, because the truth is always so much more boring than the headlines,โ€ she laughed.

โ€œBut I also know itโ€™s part of the deal.

I chose this career.

I just wish people knew when to separate entertainment from reality.

The interview wrapped on a lighter note, with Aniston joking, โ€œMaybe I should just write a book called โ€˜No, I Didnโ€™t Sleep With Himโ€™ and dedicate a whole chapter to Brad and Barack.

Whether she was being dead serious or just keeping things cheeky, one thing was clear: Jennifer Aniston is done letting wild rumors go unchecked โ€” and sheโ€™s not afraid to call them out for exactly what they are.
