Jen’s new movie totally bombed at the box office!
There weren’t too many options for ladies at the movies this weekend – Piranha 3D, Ice Cube’s The Lottery Ticket and the Twilight spoof Vampires Suck lead the box office — but Jennifer Aniston‘s new romantic comedy The Switch still bombed, coming in 7th place with a measly $8.1 million. Is this a sign of Jen’s big-screen career heading down the tubes?
Personally, I passed on spending $14 at the theater because, even though I love Jason Bateman, he seemed like he would be the one carrying the entire movie. Unfortunately, Jen hasn’t really done it for me since Friends went off the air in 2004.
What about all of you? Why didn’t YOU go see The Switch this weekend?
Watch a video below of HollywoodLife.com‘s advice for Jen. Here’s how she can re-vamp her career — and her image:

The problem is Jen Aniston herself; she can’t carry a movie as a lead actress. The more successful films were ones where she played support roles. Perhaps she’s been typecast since her role as Rachel in Friends. Her recent roles have become predictable and tiresome. She needs to taken on other more challenging roles, not just another whiney single white insecure suburban woman. The recent bad publicity with O’Reilly didn’t help either. You may not agree on his views, but he apparently has a bigger following than her!
