Selena Gomez: Jennifer Aniston gives me a lot of, like, maternal advice
Selena Gomez and Jennifer Aniston are somewhat unlikely friends. Their friendship developed over the past year, year and a half. They share the same management and they seemed especially friendly during the Oscar season for some reason. I guess on Jennifer’s side, she sees a bit of herself in Selena. On Selena’s side, she gets to hang out with one of her idols. Anyway, Selena was asked about her friendship with Aniston in a recent radio interview and Selena – being the 22-year-old that she is – actually said that Aniston gives her “maternal advice.”
Everyone knows that Selena Gomez is a huge fan of Jennifer Aniston, but what many probably don’t realize is that they are also BFFs.
“She’s amazing,” the 22-year-old singer said of the former “Friends” star during a radio interview with KTU’s Carolina Bermudez.
“So you guys are, like, really friends?” Bermudez asked in disbelief.
“Yeah… we met through my management — they manage her as well — so it was kind of like a friendly meeting and instantly she’s, like, inviting me to her house,” Gomez revealed. “She has a pizza oven. Like, we’ve made pizzas at her house. She’s very cool and very sweet. She kind of gives me a lot of, like, maternal advice.”
Fans may remember that the two met last December during a party in Los Angeles. Following the encounter Gomez shared her excitement on Instagram.
“I have not only been following her career as a fan since I was 8 and now get to watch her completely transform in her new movie ‘CAKE,’ I have gotten to have real conversations with such a real heart, made my entire year,” she captioned a black-and-white photo of the two locked in a sweet embrace.
I’m going to be generous to both women. I’m going to say that Selena is not trying to passively aggressively bring up Jennifer’s age (repeatedly). And I’m also going to say that Jennifer probably doesn’t mind… that much. But here’s a word to the wise for all the younger girls: just because a woman older than you is giving you advice, doesn’t mean that we’re “maternal.” Fun sidenote though: Jennifer Aniston is actually 7 years older than Selena’s mother. THINK ABOUT THAT. Also, us older gals don’t appreciate it when we’re talking about something that happened in 2001 and you’re all, “LOLZ, I WAS 8 YEARS OLD!” *shakes fist at whippersnappers*
