Jennifer Garner and Jim Curtis have been dating for about a year and a half
Jennifer Aniston’s friends have shut down the claim that Jim Curtis is using her enormous fame to sell his memoir, The Book of Possibility.
On Tuesday, a source close to the actress told Naughty But Nice that Jennifer knew exactly what she was doing when she publicly leveraged her immense "star power" to support her boyfriend.
Jennifer's pals insisted that the decision to promoteJim's new book was entirely hers.
“This was Jen’s decision from beginning to end,” the actress' close friend said. “Jim never asked her to do this, and neither did his team."
"She wanted to support the man she loves," the source said. "Nobody pressured Jennifer Aniston into anything.”
For those unversed, Jennifer interviewed Jim onstage at New York’s 92nd Street Y this week, thereby showcasing one of Hollywood’s most famous faces to promote his book.
However, the actress' friends insist that she made the decision after careful consideration, without any pressure or coercion.
“Jen understood exactly what lending her name to Jim’s book would mean,” the source said. “She did it with her eyes wide open."
"She wasn’t being used — she was being a supportive girlfriend. Her fame, her decision, her call," a tipster added.
