Guest Writer Kathleen Hubert weighs in on Jennifer Aniston

Men’s Health Magazine came out with the top 100 Hottest Women of all time, naming Jennifer Aniston as the Hottest, at a ranking of number one. Compared to many of her sexy rivals that came in at lower positions, such as Raquel Welch and Marilyn Monroe, many people may find it surprising that this “girl next door” star from the long-running series “Friends” has garnered the top award as Hottest Woman Alive. The word sexy is not always the first word that pops in your mind when you think about Jennifer Anniston.

One of the reasons cited by Men’s Health Magazine for Friends’ star Jennifer Aniston’s status as the Hottest Woman of All Time relates to her down-to-earth charm. This quality makes her appear attainable. Men’s Health claimed that Jennifer never overacts or plays a bimbo, instead sticking with roles that paint her as authentic and genuine. The ten year TV series “Friends” led TV reviews as a top-rated show for years as one of the most beloved shows of all time. Men’s Health also reported that funny is sexy, explaining that Aniston is sexy in a way that makes her very human.
