Streisand VS. Aniston?

Well well well... Ms. Aniston has made 'The Hit List' once again. The Friends alum, who has movie after movie this year along with her new self named Parfum, has dressed up like the 68-year-old Oscar, Grammy, Emmy and Tony-winning MEGASTAR, Barbra Streisand for the September issue of Harper's Bazaar.

Jennifer wore outfits inspired by Streisand's wardrobe from Funny Girl and What's Up, Doc. Not only was her hair, makeup and style on point but Aniston, 41, posed with her idol's signature long fingernails. She was quoted saying, "Perfectly manicured, thoroughly immodest fingernails. The nails were like, There she is!"

During the Bazaar photoshoot, Aniston listened to singer's 1964 song, "People" in repeat.

So why Barbra? Well, not that Barbra herself, would be appearing in any movies or releasing any albums soon, but Streisand has forever been Jennifer's idol.


Jennifer first met Streisand, at a New Year's party a few years ago. "I've loved her since I was a kid, and all of a sudden there she is, and she's just like someone you've always known," Jennifer says. "You know when you meet people you idolize and then you walk away from the conversation thinking, 'Well, that was a disappointment; they were kinder and more fabulous in my mind'? Well, she was wonderful, and you could talk to her about anything."


If you ask me, Jennifer resembles a younger Streisand, well of course, similar in some characteristics. She is however missing one key feature. As Barbra commented on the shoot she also would agree with me, "I was very flattered that Jennifer Aniston chose to interpret my style with the photos in Harper's Bazaar. She's a delightful person, and I think she did a wonderful job. If only she had a bump on her nose."


In the September issue out this week, Jennifer said Of her Bazaar shoot, "I have no idea what people are going to think about it. Everybody has an opinion; it's just what people love to have. But that's okay. Art is so subjective, and people can react however they want."


"Barbra inspires me because there isn't anything she hasn't done that she wanted to do, especially as a female in the time when her generation was prime. She's a true renaissance woman."


Harper's loved Jennifer Aniston so much and they've countlessly said that she was a "beautiful woman and a pleasure to work with," that they've allowed Jennifer to chose whatever she wanted to create for the theme of this issue. They wanted to represent Ms. Aniston as who she truly is. Just another down to earth woman.
