  • Jennifer Aniston wants everyone to stop pitting her against Angelina Jolie
  • Jennifer Aniston has already moved on from Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's relationship 
  • Jennifer Aniston once praised Angelina Jolie's movie, "Unbroken" 

Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are still being linked to each other years after their respective divorce from Brad Pitt.

But during Aniston’s interview with Entertainment Tonight five years ago, the actress seemingly begged everyone to stop pitting her against Jolie.

The “Friends” alum was asked to comment on Jolie’s latest project, “Unbroken.” Aniston praised Jolie for doing a gorgeous job, and she also called the film beautiful and wonderful.

Aniston also denied the allegations that she and Jolie avoided each other at the Critics’ Choice Awards.

The actress said that it’s time for fans to stop with the petty allegations and start celebrating great work. She also dubbed the rumors about her and Jolie’s feud as silly, tiresome, and old.

“I think that’s slowly coming to an end. I really do. It’s just tiresome and old. It’s like an old leather shoe. Let’s buy a new pair of shiny shoes,” Aniston said.

Since Aniston’s interview with ET took place just five years ago, the actress must have already moved on from Pitt at that time. But shortly after her divorce from her ex-husband, Aniston’s statements about Jolie were very different.

During her interview with Vogue in 2008, Aniston seemingly threw shade at Jolie for saying that she couldn’t wait to go to work every day because that’s where she will reunite with Pitt. The former couple starred in “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” while Pitt was still married to Aniston.

“There was stuff printed there that was definitely from a time when I was unaware that it was happening. I felt those details were a little inappropriate to discuss. That stuff about how she couldn't wait to get to work every day? That was really uncool,” she said.

As of late, Aniston and Pitt have already patched things up. The two also see each other every now and then. Pitt also attended Aniston’s 50th birthday party earlier this year.

Angelina Jolie had all eyes on her on the 2012 Oscars red carpet. The 38-year-old mother of six flaunted her figure - particularly her right leg - in a black velveteen, strapless Atelier Versace gown with a thigh-high slit. Many noticed that the dress looked near-identical to one Jennifer Aniston wore in 2010. Who do you think looked better? Reuters/PA
