Jennifer Aniston on 'Wanderlust' Relationships and Her Secret Food Obsession
"Extra's" Renee Bargh sat down with "Wanderlust" stars Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux to talk about their new comedy. Aniston also revealed her biggest food weakness.
The film centers on a Manhattan couple (Aniston and Paul Rudd), who after finding themselves at a crossroads in life and decide to experiment with living in a rural commune where free love rules.
"Nothing about that lifestyle appeals to me," laughed Aniston. "In my 20s, I was as hippie as I bought vintage clothing."
Theroux added, "I would not be going to that place. I like better food than what they were serving."
Aniston said she works out but she also eats. "It's not like I'm eating like a twig lettuce leaf with a piece of tuna on it. Actually, that does sound kind of good." The actress admitted her biggest food craving is salt. "That's Mexican food. Salt, salt, salt. I used to suck on bullion cubes, not lollipops."
As for Theroux's character in the movie, he plays an alpha male. Is he like that in real life? Aniston said, "Absolutely not. But he's a protector, for sure."
