The National Enquirer has a big story about how Jennifer Aniston has fallen in love with Hawaii while filming Just Go With It. She’s so in love, she’s considering moving there permanently, sort of. The headline is all about Jennifer “leaving Hollywood for Hawaii” but really, the article is just about how Jennifer is considering buying a home there. Now, by my estimation, Jennifer is worth about $150 million, give or take $20 million or so. And also, just pulling this out of what I know about her, doesn’t she only own property in LA, and maybe Mexico too (although I think she just rents the Mexico property)? So, she could looking to buy in Hawaii as a second home, or a beach house or whatever. If I had her money, I would be doing something similar. If I had that money, I would have houses all over the place. And they wouldn’t be decorated like Ron Burgandy’s lair either.
JENNIFER ANISTON says aloha to Hollywood! Fed up with box-office disappointments and fizzled romances, the Friends beauty plans to make a new start in Hawaii, pals say.
The 41-year-old actress – encouraged by close friend Oprah Winfrey – is buying a getaway home on the island of Maui in the hope that the change of scenery will recharge her personal and professional life.
Jen fell in love with the area while recently and quickly realized Hawaii might be “just what she’s been looking for,” a close pal told The ENQUIRER.
“She says the island vibe is just what she needs to counter the Hollywood rat race. And her extended stay inspired her to buy a house.”
Jen has toured several oceanfront homes in the Wailea section of Maui, and she also looked at a ranch in Napili, according to reports. When Oprah heard she was looking, Oprah offered her support, telling Jen the island state is the “land of new starts,” the source said.
“Jennifer knows that reconnecting with nature and the ocean would be healing.”

Why does Oprah always butt in? Can’t a girl meet with some real estate agents without it needing to be sanctified by The Oprah? Eh. Anyway, this is probably just crap, something made up because the Enquirer was like, “Oh, she’s filming there. Is that a story?” In the past, Aniston has been allegedly planning moves to New York, London and Scotland (for Gerard Butler!). My guess is that if Aniston does buy, it will just be a second home. Plus, she should probably just break down and buy property in Mexico. She spends so much time there!
