Jennifer Aniston Cements Handprints at Grauman's Chinese Theatre
The actress is joined by her "Horrible Bosses" co-star Jason Bateman, comedian Chelsea Handler and boyfriend Justin Theroux.
Actress Jennifer Aniston sank her hands and feet into the cement in the forecourt of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood on Thursday, one day before the release of her latest film, Horrible Bosses.
"All actors who want to do this, it's really, really fun, but you really, really have to want to do it, (because) there's all sorts of stuff that comes along with it,'' the 42-year-old Aniston told the crowd gathered along Hollywood Boulevard. "But man, I have to tell you, I never in my wildest dreams thought that I'd be sticking my body in cement.''
Aniston, who rose to fame playing Rachel on the hit sitcom Friends, was joined at the ceremony by her Horrible Bosses co-star Jason Bateman, comedian Chelsea Handler and boyfriend Justin Theroux.

"She's a wonderful girl, and now she has a tattoo, so she's even more accessible to everybody who never thought they could have a chance with her,'' Handler joked.
In her new movie, Aniston plays a dentist who sexually harasses one of her employees, played by Charlie Day, and becomes the target of a murder plot by her underling and two other people who are abused by bosses.

Bateman had high praise for his co-star. "I don't feel nearly as lucky as the sidewalk, because the sidewalk — for years long after we're all gone—gets to now include, poured into its rigid cement, a woman whose spirit is every bit as solid, whose integrity is every bit as unbreakable and whose body is every bit as hard,'' he said.
Aniston, the daughter of Days of Our Lives actor John Aniston, has also appeared in films such as Just Go With It, The Bounty Hunter, Office Space, Along Came Polly and Bruce Almighty.
