One of the great ironies is that Star magazine spends more time writing inaccurate stories about Jennifer Aniston and John Mayer than they’ve actually spent together. 

In this week’s installment, the Star has an article titled, “Jen & John’s Twisted Romance!” Maybe it should be called “Star‘s Twisted Logic.” The piece begins, “Lying by the beach, drinking margaritas with friends, Jennifer Aniston looked like she was enjoying the single life during her stay at the luxe One&Only Palmilla resort in Los Cabos, Mexico. But secretly, she was disappointed and hurt.”

Right, and despite Gossip Cop‘s outwardly thin appearance, we cannot squeeze through the front door of our home.

Putting aside the absurdity of how Star knows Aniston’s inner feelings, the rag claims the reason she was hurt and disappointed was that she had planned the “trip as a romantic getaway with John Mayer, but he never showed.”  

It gets worse. The tab claims Aniston was further annoyed because “she had even sent a private jet to pick him up!”

In another example of Aniston and Mayer’s supposed ongoing “twisted romance,” the magazine writes, “The last time Jen visited his L.A. home, she was shocked and hurt to find a lacy thong in his bedroom.” (Ah yes, the other woman’s panty which just happens to be lying around.)

Star continues that while the “red-and-black underwear was hardly Jen’s style, John continued to deny that it was from another woman.” 

Didn’t think it could get worse? Hold on.

According to one of those magical Star sources, “Jen knew it was from one of his other lovers, but finally she gave up and said it might actually be hers. It’s as if he has the power to brainwash her!”

Brainwash her?!

Aniston’s rep, who’s overworked by the Star every week, told Gossip Cop that the story is — any guesses? — “a complete fabrication.” That we totally believe — no brainwashing here.
