Celebrity Timeline - Jennifer Aniston

If you still didn`t hear about our new category, you can follow Celebrity Timeline link to see first issue of mentioned category, presenting Brad Pitt`s life. There you can also read short introduction to the category, and find out what was on our mind when we decided to start Celebrity Timeline.

Unfortunately, in last few days we had some technical difficulties, so we are still struggling with migrating of CelebritiesTAN to the new platform, but I really hope that next week I`ll be able to announce brand new site on our dedicated server with improved look and feel. But until then, check out Jennifer Aniston` Celebrity Timeline, and be patient a little bit more.

Jennifer was born on February 11, 1969 in Sherman Oaks, CA. She spent the first year of her life living in Greece with her family, and later moved to New York City, when her father landed a role on the daytime drama named “Love of Life”. On the first picture you can see how she looked back in that time. Few years later, when she was six, Jennifer began attending the Rudolf Steiner School, a Waldorf educational school that applied the philosophy of integrating artistic and analytic learning to fulfill a child’s unique and untapped destiny. Little Jennifer was inspired to act after seeing the play “Children of A Lesser God” on Broadway. After discovering acting at the age of 11, she joined the Rudolf Steiner School’s drama club. You can see how she looked in school on the second picture, and next picture is taken in 1987. That was the year when she graduated from the Fiorello LaGuardia High School of Music and Performing Arts.

Celebrity X No. 11

Before moving on to a new Celebrity X issue, I want to apologize because I didn`t publish new posts in the past two days. Last week I announced some brand new categories that are yet to come and other interesting stuff which are scheduled to appear on CelebritiesTAN.com throughout this week. We are considering migrating site to Wordpress platform because it is more flexible and gives us much more room to play with some new and exciting features. In that way we could make the site even more interactive and playful so you would have more stuff to enjoy on CelebritiesTAN.com. Because of this transfer we are spending a lot of time researching what is the best way to export data and migrate the design to have better look and feel for you as our number one priority. Given that, please have some patience for the next month or so. We’ll keep you posted about our progress.

Today I prepared a little bit harder Celebrity X issue. This picture is really rare, and there is no way to know who it is, unless you are his loyal fan. But don`t worry, I`ll give you few hints. The person on the picture was born in Los Angeles, but his mother moved from Germany to the U.S. during her childhood, while his father is half of Italian and half German descent. His parents gave him name after one worldwide famous artist, but soon they divorced, when he was just one year old. He firstly appeared in a TV show as a five years old boy. In relatively short period of time he managed to progress into top category of Hollywood superstars, with his extraordinary sense for acting. He has amazing list of roles in numerous blockbusters in his successful acting history, but his claim to fame was role in which he acted as Toby in This Boy’s Life in 1993. I hope this helps you enough to realize who could it be. Continue reading and find out is your answer the right one.

Celebrity X No. 10

I returned from my trip to Venice, but now I wish that I could stay at least few days longer. You should go there if you still haven`t seen it, because Venice looks really wonderful, much better than on TV. The only problem is that the crowds are extremely annoying. When you are standing on the main square, Piazza San Marco, it almost feels like you are on a football match on some overcrowded stadium. But it is definitely worth to see such a great cultural attraction for a little bit of elbow pushing.

We are moving on with a new Celebrity X issue, which is in front of you. This one shouldn`t be hard to guess, because we have another Hollywood celebrity who became so popular today that you just can`t avoid hearing some gossip about her. Or gossip about her husband, equally famous actor, who is sixteen years older than her, or even their three year old daughter. Our Celebrity X began a highly publicized relationship with the mentioned actor in early 2005, and in November 2006 they got married in Italy. She first achieved worldwide fame for her role in one successful television teen drama (shown from 1998 to 2003). With these few hints, you should already know enough to guess who could it be. Follow the link below to find out if you are right, and to see few more interesting facts from her younger days. Check out the answer by double-clicking the “+/- Show Answer” link right below this text.

Celebrity X No. 9

It`s been raining the whole day here at my place, and the weather is generally terrible, with lot of southern winds. Maybe it`s good for surfing, but most of people are freaking out because of that. And world news are not making things easier at all. I hope that this fast spreading swine flu is not going to appear in your area, but lot of people are concerned and stressed out because of cases in their neighborhood.

To forget about all problems just for few minutes and to cheer you up a little bit, I decided to publish maybe the funniest picture from my whole collection which contains various pictures of celebrities when they were young. I suppose it is hard to stop laughing when you see this lovely baby on the picture. Well, if you didn`t know, this little baby, which was born in Englewood (New Yersey) in 1954, is one of the major future Hollywood stars. His father was a second-generation Italian American and his mother was Irish American. He was the youngest of six children in family, so it is sure that he had to fight for himself throughout the childhood. If you have older brothers, you`ll know what am I talking about. He has impressive list of roles in his cereer, but probably one of the most famous is that one from Quentin Tarantino`s megahit Pulp Fiction. I think that you should have enough hints to try to guess who could it be.
