Sandra Bullock says she was told she couldn't ‘like' Jennifer Aniston: ‘No one wanted the ladies to be friends'
Sandra Bullock said she and Friends star Jennifer Aniston started out in Hollywood at a time when 'no one wanted the ladies to be friends' and female actors were meant to see each other only as competition. Speaking to Vanity Fair for a story on Aniston, Bullock reflected on their relationship and how it began. They first met about 15 years ago at a mutual friend's wedding, immediately struck up a friendship and 'spent the night trading shots and notes'. 'We're just like, 'Oh my God, we need to meet and cut loose,'' Bullock recalled. 'And we did.' They debuted in Hollywood around the same time. After playing smaller roles in films and TV series in the late 1980s, both landed breakthrough parts in 1994 – Bullock in Speed and Aniston in Friends. 'We were from that time in the business where no one wanted the ladies to be friends – it was about pitting everyone against each other,' Bullock recalled. 'We were told we weren't supposed to do that – meaning like and respect and honour each other.' The actors now related to each other not just as women working in the same industry, but over shared frightening experiences. In June 2014, a stalker named Joshua Corbett broke into Bullock's Los Angeles home with a love letter, leading the Oscar-winner to hide inside a cupboard to call 911. This year, a man named Jimmy Wayne Carwyle was arrested after he drove his car through the gate of Aniston's Bel Air home. He had allegedly been harassing her with voicemail, email, and social media messages for two years. 'People are out of their minds. Who wants to put that energy out there,' Aniston said, adding that her security team was 'not glamorous in any way. It's a necessity'. 'It makes me think, 'Do I really have to go outside and navigate the world?'' Bullock said. 'There's the cases where they got into the house, the cases where they're outside the house, the cases where you're on a film set and they figured out where you are, and the cases that no one hears about. 'It's ongoing. It's not a one-off. And it does create a mindset where your home also unfortunately becomes your fortress.' The two actors now work together to make sure they go out of their houses. 'There's a motivation of going, 'Okay, we need to go somewhere. Where are we going?'' said Bullock. Aniston revealed in the same story that she was also close friends with Gwyneth Paltrow. 'Ironically, I went to her and Brad's engagement party,' Aniston told the magazine. Paltrow was engaged to Brad Pitt in the 1990s and Aniston was married to him for five years until their divorce in 2005. She was asked if she ever talked about Pitt with Paltrow. 'Oh, of course,' she responded. 'How can we not? We're girls.'

Jennifer Aniston says she mourned Matthew Perry for a ‘long time' before his death
Friends star Jennifer Aniston has said she mourned her co-star Matthew Perry for a 'long time' before he died from a drug overdose in 2023. Aniston, 56, starred as Rachel Green alongside Perry as Chandler Bing in the much-loved comedy series from September 1994 to May 2004. They remained close in the years after Friends wrapped. Speaking to Vanity Fair, Aniston said of attempting to help Perry during his struggle with addiction: 'We did everything we could when we could. 'But it almost felt like we'd been mourning Matthew for a long time because his battle with that disease was a really hard one for him to fight. Aniston added: 'As hard as it was for all of us and for the fans, there's a part of me that thinks this is better. I'm glad he's out of that pain.' An investigation was launched into Perry's death, with two doctors and a dealer known as the 'ketamine queen' among five people charged in relation to his overdose. Perry was open about his three-decade-long struggle with addiction, which resulted in him visiting rehab 15 times over his lifetime, and having a number of near-death experiences. The star wrote in his poignant 2022 memoir, Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing that fans of Friends will be able to tell whether he was drinking alcohol or taking drugs 'from season to season' by 'gauging' his weight and tracking his facial hair throughout the show. 'When I'm carrying weight, it's alcohol; when I'm skinny, it's pills; when I have a goatee, it's a lot of pills,' he said. Two days after Perry's passing, Friends lead cast members – Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer – broke their silence on their co-star's death. 'We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew. We were more than just cast mates. We are a family. There is so much to say, but right now we're going to take a moment to grieve and process this unfathomable loss,' they wrote in a joint statement to People. 'In time we will say more, as and when we are able. For now, our thoughts and our love are with Matty's family, his friends, and everyone who loved him around the world.'

It's Bite-Sized Insanity on a Stick Again This Year for the State Fair of Texas Food Finalists
is an editor for Eater's Texas region. She lives in Dallas, where she's written about James Beard-celebrated and Michelin-recognized restaurants and she loves nachos. Every year, the State Fair of Texas vendors try to outdo themselves, dreaming up the next over-the-top creation to shock and delight fairgoers. 2025 is no exception. But there is a big shake-up among the finalists. Typically, we see 10 finalists, most of whom focus on the food, and get one, maybe two, drinks in the mix. This year, there are 15 finalists, and a new category called Sips to house all the drinks submissions that have been overshadowed by battered and fried bites in years past. Our take is simple: This is a smart move. The first two, if not three, weeks of the Fair take place in the ultra-hot dregs of September. All Fairgoers could use an excuse to stay hydrated. How much will people care about the drinks? Usually, drinks are the least interesting part of the announcement of the finalists, but let's find out if these five selections can turn that around. The finalists will battle it out on Thursday, August 21, at 2 p.m. CST. One winner from each category will be selected by a soon-to-be-announced panel of judges, which often includes a selection of local chefs, influencers, and Dallas celebrities. The Big Tex Choice Awards are streamed online on the Fair's Instagram and Facebook accounts, and they're generally a pretty entertaining time. The State Fair will be open from Friday, September 26, to Sunday, October 19. Explore the finalists below, and get Eater Dallas's hot takes on each based on vibes alone. Savory finalists Brisket balls of fire. State Fair of Texas Brisket and Brew-Stuffed Pretzels Created by Glen and Sherri Kusak Taking some brisket and sharp cheddar beer cheese, stuffing it in pretzel dough, and cooking it is not the most explosive idea in Fair history, but it will get the job done. This seems like it will be a slam dunk. For dips, we're going for the spicy mustard, but we won't judge you if you prefer barbecue sauce. (Maybe a little.) They call it crab and mozzarella arancini, we call it anarchy. State Fair of Texas Crab and Mozzarella Arancini Created by Stefan T. Nedwetzky It sounds good in theory: Maryland blue crab, white rice, mozzarella cheese, red bell peppers, and spring onions in a ball, deep-fried and covered in breadcrumbs. But this has the potential to go bad real fast. If the crab is just a little off, the stench could be a disaster. The vendor — the chef behind Texapolitan Pizza, which blew us away at a tasting last year — promises it is made in small batches for the best quality product. That better be true. Pastrami and mashed potatoes do work in a taco if you deep-fry it. State Fair of Texas Deep Fried Deli Tacos Created by Brent and Juan Reaves Based on the name alone, this is an immediate yes. The tacos are filled with pastrami, mashed potatoes, white cheese, and chives. There is a green sauce to dip it in (does that mean salsa verde or like mystery green sauce? TBD). We'd drop good money to get a bite. The Vietnamese crunch dog is an immediate yes. State Fair of Texas Vietnamese Crunch Dog Created by the Le Family Have you had a crunchy Vietnamese corndog? If so, you already know this is going to rule. Fletcher's corny dog already rules the Fair, and we will continue to eat them out of a sense of tradition, but we've had some soft, chewy corny dogs on off days before. That never happens with a crunch dog coated in Panko and bánh mì crumbs. Plus, pickled veggies and sriracha mayo? Hell yes. Part slider, part deviled egg, completely tempting. State Fair of Texas Wagyu Bacon Cheeseburger Deviled Egg Sliders Created by Kendall Williams A wagyu slider that's part deviled egg is also an immediate yes, out of sheer curiosity. Eater Dallas is particularly fond of both of those things. Put applewood bacon and aged cheddar on it, too? Say less. Sweet finalists That's one sour lemon. State Fair of Texas Candy Lemon Sour Face Created by Chef Heather J. Perkins Maybe we're masochists, but our curiosity about this ensures we will eat it. Will we like it? Unclear. This chef took a candy-dipped lemon and added that acidic sour stuff from sour candy to it. We're giving it at least a lick. Thrill us and chill us baby. State Fair of Texas Chill and Thrill Delight Created by Tony and Terry BednarOur curiosity about this take on salpicon de frutas from Colombia is piqued. We generally like what the Bednars make (they were responsible for drowning taquitos last year, and birria bombs in previously years, both of which should be tried). The winning entry from this duo in 2025 is a 'Texas-sized' cup of mango, pineapple, watermelon, grapes, cantaloupe, and strawberries soaked in watermelon juice and topped with shaved mango sorbet. Dang, that sounds so refreshing. Plus, our doctor won't scold us about eating it. Two wins in one. Now that's a… cheesecake? State Fair of Texas Dubai Chocolate Cheesecake Created by Stephen El GidiFrom the guy who created Biscoff Delight cheesecake, which took the Fair by storm two years ago, comes Dubai chocolate cheesecake, which is almost certain to do the same. It is served in a cup and combines pistachio spread, kataifi, tahini, and New York-style cheesecake with a chocolate drizzle. Ugh, okay if you insist. Dubai comes to the Fair — Dubai chocolate, that is. State Fair of Texas Rousso's Dubai Chocolate Funnel Cake Fries Created by Isaac and Joey RoussoIsaac Russo is forever bucking to be king of the Fair, and his entry last year, Cotton Candy Wrapped Bacon, was a new classic. This year, he made the finals with some funnel cake fries featuring a Dubai chocolate topping. Would eat, why not? This seems like a dangerous idea. State Fair of Texas Tex's Toast á la Mode Created by Michelle and Jayse Edwards French toast with Blue Bell vanilla ice cream and a thousand pounds of sugar in the form of caramel, maple syrup, and a cinnamon cereal for some crunch? Oh god. Sigh. Yes, but we'll regret it. This feels like a 'last bite on the way out' order. Sipper finalists If the song 'Kokomo' were a person, this is what it would look like. State Fair of Texas Coconut Quadruple Created by Binh Tran and My Vo You had us at coconut water-based coconut slushy topped with coconut ice cream and coconut flakes served in a coconut. There will be no drink more refreshing at the fair. Cookie chaos sounds about right for this one. State Fair of Texas Cookie Chaos Milkshake Created by Brad Weiss Is a shake a sipper, or is it a sweet? The Fair's powers that be have decided it's a liquid, but this one has snickerdoodle chunks, Golden Oreos, and classic Oreos, so we're dubious. Would take a sip (nibble?) though. Hold our beer, we're diving in. State Fair of Texas Hot Honeycomb Lemonade Shake Up Created by Tom Grace Inject this one into our veins, stat. A good old-fashioned lemonade made with fresh-squeezed lemons and sugar, plus honey and freshly cut jalapeños? Move over sauvignon blanc and jalapeños, we've got a new hot fave. Of note: you can add booze to it. We'd rather not, thank you. State Fair of Texas Nevins Dirty Red Bull Tex-arita Created by Josey Nevins Mayes and Tami Jo Nevins Mayes Look, no one hates Red Bull more than we do. No thanks. If you're into that sort of thing, this is sweet cream liquor, blue razz Pop Rocks, watermelon Red Bull, and blueberry Red Bull. We strongly recommend you don't, but if you must, please add alcohol. Lean into the hangover; it's going to get you either way. This may be the strangest Fair mash-up for the year. State Fair of Texas Poppin' Boba Rita Created byJustin Martinez Loving the idea of combining a boba drink and a margarita. The available flavors will be mango and strawberry. I'm also loving that we can make it 'dirty' with some creamy cold foam and a Tajin rim; sounds absolutely gross, and we're down.
