Video: Aniston won't host talk show
Britain's Sunday Express alleged it was Aniston's friendship with comedienne
Chelsea Handler, who fronts her own
TV talk show, that inspired her to take on the project.
A source said, "Jen became fascinated with the format after spending time
with Chelsea. When she saw Oprah she mentioned that it would be fun to do a chat
show and Oprah seized the moment and suggested they front one together for her
new network."
A spokesperson for Aniston has dismissed the claims, telling Usmagazine.com
the story is "absolutely false".

Rock," has yet to star in a U.S. television series since her decade-long
role as Rachel Green in "Friends." (WENN)
