I think she's saying being outside gives the cyberbullies (courtesy of papparzii) more ammunition. "OMG! Jennifer Anniston went to Starbucks. Did you *see* what she was wearing?!?"

Instead, they'll make up stories of her being a weird recluse who stores her pee in mason jars.

Son of Thunder: I understand the Zelda Williams thing. I'd probably do the same. But freaking out because the web is infested with trolls and idiots and nutjobs who say mean things about celebrities? Cowboy up, princess.

For you, the day you were personally attacked by online pinheads was traumatic cyber bullying. For Fark... it was a Tuesday.

Now, now. We all know women are precious snowflakes that can't take people saying mean things against them.

I do have some sympathy for celebrities when it comes to this kind of thing. But for celebrities who are at that level like Jennifer Aniston, couldn't you just buy a house in some secluded location, like say rural montana, one of the lesser known Hawaiian Islands, or somewhere in Europe and just live there? I mean Johnny Depp lives in the south of France and you hardly ever hear about him in the tabloids. Clooney lives in Italy and I think Sandra Bullock lives in Texas or something. There is no money in TMZ sending a photographer out to a small town to got shots of one person when they can just hang out in Hollywood and get pictures of tons famous people. I mean she made 1 million an episode for the last 2 seasons of Friends, plus she get residuals. With that kind of cash you could live just about anywhere, and fly yourself back to LA anytime you need to go on an audition or have a meeting with your agent or whatever.

This. Many celebrities have simply moved out of CA and their problems went away. It's hard to be a celebrity victim when you move somewhere where nobody cares.

Or New York. There are a ton of celebrities who live there because no one makes a big deal about them. The average tourist doesn't venture out of midtown so they live in the Village or Tribeca or Brooklyn and walk around and do stuff without being bothered. Although I can say that it can be kind of unsettling realizing the guy in front of you getting coffee and a bagel is Liam Neeson.

Doesn't work like that, unfortunately.

If you live outside of LA, that means that whatever project you are working on mean two months away from home. That could happen anyway, but living outside of LA guarantees it. It also means you get zero chance to hang out with other industry people, which may negatively affect the amount of work you get.

Also, the tabloids usually don't hire the people that take the pictures. Professionals work freelance and they will go wherever they think the money is. Now that everyone has a camera at all times, there are even days where you'll see shots from people that were in the same club or that bumped into someone on the street. There are guys who do nothing but hang out at the airport to get shots of celebrities getting off long flights.

One of the worst tab things I ever saw involved Jennifer Lawrence. A photographer got a room in an adjacent hotel and took pictures through her window of her drinking wine and smoking pot with a buddy. The Daily Mail ran the photos and called her mom. Then the same photographer took pictures the next day when she got into a screaming fight with her mom on the phone.

The absolute worst was probably Anna Nicole Smith's death refrigerator. Shudder.

Meanwhile, scroll down to see a 66-page slideshow of celebrity candids.

Besides, a woman in her condition... according to what I see at the supermarket, she's been pregnant for about the past six years. That baby's gonna weigh like 50 pounds. I'd stay inside too.

Wouldn't even need to leave the state. There's lots of places in California that aren't LA. It's the same with New York, there's a whole lot of New York that is not New York City. No matter where they go, there will be people who will take pictures of them, everybody carries around a camera these days. Won't be nearly as bad as those cities where paparazzi concentrate, but it's always going to be there.

Harrison Ford is the person I always think of. I worked with a lady who babysat his kids when she was younger. It was no big deal for him to get a neighbor girl for a babysitting job when he went out. Everyone in the area knew him of course, but no one ever bothered him or tried to get pictures with him. He said the only time he had to worry about overexposure is when someone in the industry wanted a little cash on the side and would snitch that he was flying back to CA.

It might not work that way for working actors who have to do shiat like go on auditions and open calls and actually hustle to get work. But I doubt someone like Jennifer Aniston needs to do that sort of thing. To use my previous example, Johnny Depp seems to be doing ok finding work, and the dude lives in France.. At the same time he hardly ever appears on tabloid covers, even a few years ago when he was arguably the biggest star in the world. I have to think that that is because there is no money to be made for a photographer to fly to France and pay for accommodations in hopes of getting pictures when they can just hang out inside of some club in LA and get pictures of some random Karsashian or Lohan or some other reality show star.

For that matter the money she made off Friends has literally set up Aniston for life (or multiple lifetimes). Some quick calculations tell me that salary alone paid her somewhere in the neighborhood of 80 million dollars over 10 seasons. So it is not like she has to keep working to support herself.

His guest shot on PSYCH as an FBI agent who out Lassies Lassie is one of the top 5 in the show's run.

Though he's been fairly successful, he's talented enough that he deserves to be in better faire than
direct-to-video crap.

There are plenty of places near Los Angeles but not in Los Angeles where celebs often live to be close to work, but far enough away that it discourages the tour buses and random paparazzi. If you are two hours outside of town in a gated community or on a big private lot, the photographers aren't going to come out without a reason.

Ojai for example, is a small town with a history of celeb residents. Not only is a bit of a pain to get to, the locals and the cops are protective of the private nature of the community. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ojai,_California#Notable_current_and_pas t _residents (And I know that list is incomplete)

There's no shortage of photographers in France or anywhere else, so websites and magazines aren't sending anybody anywhere. However, I would guess that somebody like Depp has an "understanding" with agencies over there, that he will do the red carpet stuff but candid shots are no-go or something. It may also be that, having been a problem there longer than in the US, that paparazzi have different rules to follow (especially after the death of Princess Diana) as opposed to basically no rules in the US.

Jen, it's been a great run. For years and years you were my favorite Hollywood lady. You're funny, sexy, adorable with a prize winning smile.

But lately, you've changed, and not for the better. I could look past your desire to replace Sarah Jessica Parker, Cameron Diaz or Sandra Bullock as Hollywood's reigning Rom-Com queen. I enjoyed your attempts to be sexy and show "everything BUT the goods" in We're The Millers. I got over the fact that you kept blue balling me with every movie that the advanced publicity claimed was where you finally "took it all off" and then chickened out. I even forgave the purposely blurred bare butt shot in "The Break Up", frustrating though it was. I hope someday that you do share your full body nakedness with the world and make up for the near misses and wimp outs you've put your male fans through all these years.

You can't make up your mind if you want to marry this Justin jerk wad or not. You haven't had a movie out in two years and with this latest, you're veering dangerously into "crazy cat lady" territory. I'm worried about you, I hope you'll be alright, but I need to move on.

Lizzy Caplan will be taking your place as my new Hollywood lust magnet. If and/or when you get your act together, call me. Until then, best of luck to you.

Love, Always...
