Jennifer Aniston used to be a caffeine addict and a cigarette smoker, which contributed to bad breath

Aniston is best known for her role as Rachel Green on Friends. But aside from acting, she’s also famous for her dedication to physical health. And although the star is an advocate for healthy lifestyle choices, she used to have bad habits that led to- well- unpleasant breath.

As Glamour magazine reports, the blue-eyed beauty used to have an addiction to caffeine and cigarettes. Yet, according to the actor, she was able to get rid of her cravings for cigarettes and coffee with the help of yoga.

But unfortunately, while she was hooked on the coffee and smokes routine, it made kissing scenes difficult for her co-stars. The odor was just too unbearable. And apparently, according to ScreenRant, Aniston’s breath smelled so bad that Jason Bateman once complained about it. Allegedly he had to stop a kissing scene with her because of the cigarette/coffee stench.

Aniston guest stars on an episode of 30 Rock, titled “The One With The Cast of Night Court.”

In the episode, Baldwin and Aniston share a wildly passionate kiss. Yet when the It’s Complicated actor was asked about what it was like to make out with Aniston, he had a shocking response.

“It was painful,” Baldwin sighed, according to HuffPost. “I mean, every man who’s had to make out with her in TV and movies — I don’t know how they do it.”

While it’s definitely possible that Baldwin was making a joke, we’ll never know whether he was telling the truth or not.

Amid the coronavirus pandemic, Baldwin and Aniston are doing their best to stay safe and quarantine.

According to US Weekly, Baldwin is taking extra safety precautions and has been quarantining in a separate house from his wife and kids. He is now staying in his guest house because he’s frequently traveling from New York to LA.

“I go into New York and work a little bit and come back and have to quarantine here for a few days,” he said, according to the magazine. “It’s not a lot of fun.”

Meanwhile, Aniston is trying her best to cope with quarantine by staying creative. “Jen has been writing a ton and focusing on writing film scripts while in quarantine,” an insider told US Weekly. “She’s a homebody, so this time has been nice for her, and she’s been very creative.”
