  ^{Marie Claire - Best Friend}

^{Jennifer Aniston has a new film, a new beau, a new bod, and, according to Hollywood buzz, she�s the �friend� to watch.}

^{She doesn�t want to talk about her hair.  Maybe that�s why Jennifer Aniston, the 27-year-old star of the NBC sitcom Friends, bared her behind on the cover of Rolling Stone last March: She was so sick of being known as the cut to clone, she just wanted to change the subject.  So now the subject is her butt.}

^{�The first dress I tried to put on for the Marie Claire cover shoot wouldn�t fit over my hips,� she says.  �I was laughing, and then I said, �Could we hold the rest of the dresses up to me first, so I don�t have to go through this?�  Jennifer�s mortification was fleeing, however.  She seems pretty happy with the body that emerged a couple of years ago when she took her agent�s advice and dropped 30 pounds.}

^{�I went to a nutritionist,� remembers the Manhattan native, who moved to L.A. a year after graduating from New York�s High School of Performing Arts.  �She nearly threw me out of her office.  I was eating mayonnaise sandwiches, fried foods, burgers.  So I started to eat healthy and work out.  I mean, I had never done anything,� says the woman who was just named one of Hollywood�s hottest bodies by In Style magazine.}

^{Meanwhile, Aniston was staying alive in the business, landing parts in short-running TV series.  Then, two years ago, she landed the part of Rachel, the rich girl turned waitress, on the sitcom phenomenon Friends.  Big-screen roles quickly followed: Three of her movies are due out this year, including this summer�s She�s the One, the second film from The Brothers McMullen writer/director/star Ed Burns.}

^{�No, I�ve never been cheated on,� reports Jennifer, who plays a woman whose husband takes Cameron Diaz as a mistress, �but it�s one of my biggest fears � being cheated on or left.  I guess that comes from watching my mom deal with it.  Aniston�s parents, Days of Our Lives soap star John, and model-turned-photographer Nancy, broke up when she was 9.}

^{Today Aniston is particularly close to her only sibling, older half-brother Johnny Melick, despite his early penchant for frightening her.  �Once, when we were young, he made me watch Friday the 13th, after which I went into the bathroom.  He�d snuck in there first and hid behind the shower curtain, then jumped out, wearing this horrible mask that had eyeballs falling out and snakes for hair.  I let out a scream and�.Well, let�s just say it was a good thing I was sitting on the toilet.�}

^{Today, family and pals keep Aniston from freaking in the face of her megasuccess, as does �a boyfriend who�s heaven.�  That celestial honey is Tate Donovan, costar of the cancelled Fox sitcom Partners, whom she�s been seeing since October and who recently took her to visit his family in New Jersey.}

^{�His parents are still together, he�s one of six kids, and they were all really happy to see him,� recalls Aniston.  �We sat around a big table in the house he grew up in.  I envy that so much.�  She sort of moans at the sweetness of it all.  �I don�t go for the big planned-out romantic gesture,� the actress says, �but when he showed me his old bedroom, it was pretty romantic.�}
