TWO PEAS IN A POD
From a shared ex to a favorite vacation spot, Bullock and
Aniston have similarities everywhere you look
be asked back because
the kids are just a tornado
of energy and something
always ends up spilled,
broken or both. [So] Jen’s
spent more time at Sandy’s
house.”
One of the most
beautiful aspects of the
friendship is that there’s
no negativity, no drama.
“They were both in very
positive places in their
lives when the friendship
formed, as Sandra had
just started dating Bryan
and Jen was with Justin,
so this wasn’t, you know,
two women who were
heartbroken, sitting
around miserable,” says
the source. In a town
where friendships come
and go, by all accounts
Bullock’s and Aniston’s is
the real deal. “These are
two very accomplished
professional women who
celebrate each other’s
successes.”

THE EX FACTOR
Bullock got engaged to Tate
Donavan, 55, after they fell for
each other making Love Potion
No. 9 in 1990. After their split,
he dated Aniston for two years
until they broke up — as he
was filming a six-episode arc
with her on Friends in 1994.
GOLDEN GIRLS
Bullock took home a Golden
Globe in 2010 for her per-
formance in The Blind Side,
seven years after Aniston won
a Globe for best actress in a
TV comedy for her work on
Friends. They’ve scored other
hardware too: Bullock has an
Oscar and Aniston an Emmy.
FUNNY FRIEND
In 2014, comedian Chelsea
Handler revealed that both
Bullock and Aniston were
among her closest friends.
Both actresses were there to
support the talk-show host
on the 2014 finale
of her late-night show,
Chelsea Lately.
VACATION DESTINATION
Bullock has a home near
Jackson Hole, Wyo., — she
and Aniston (who was in town
with pals Jimmy Kimmel and
Jason Bateman) were even
seen dancing at the city’s
Million Dollar Cowboy Bar on
New Year’s Eve 2018.
NETFLIX DARLINGS
With Bullock’s December
thriller, Bird Box, being
viewed by 45 million ac-
counts in its first week, and
Aniston’s June comedy,
Murder Mystery, by nearly
31 million, they’ve starred in
two of the streamer’s most
successful original movies.
30 Rock’s Kenneth the
Page, 46, and Swedish
actor Skarsgård, 42,
have been close pals for
more than seven years.
McBrayer was even by
Skarsgård’s side when the
Big Little Lies villain took
home trophies at the 2017
Emmys and 2018 Screen
Actors Guild Awards.
