Jennifer Aniston’s love life took a turn for the interesting today, when a man claming to be her ex-lover, spilled all to Star about their brief fling – claiming she chased him because he was a bad boy.
Brian Bouma, who worked as a grip on the set of movie Love Happens – which starred Jen alongside Aaron Eckhart – has finally revealed all, after tabloid tales linked the pair when they were pictured leaving Courteney Cox’s house together back in 2008.
Insisting that Jen pursued him after spotting him on set, Brian told Star, “She approached me.” And said that dating the actress was an “overwhelming experience.”
“All that’s written about her being lonely is just ridiculous,” he said. “I didn’t spend time with Jen because she was famous or successful. I’ve been down that road before. It usually mean trouble with a capital T. It was because of the conversation that first time we spoke. She’s genuine, sincere and charismatic.”
But after just a few months of dating, Jen, 42, ended the relationship, with Brian believing he just wasn’t bad enough to keep her interested.
“I guess she just wasn’t that into me,” he admitted. “She did tell me that I was too ‘Mr. Pure.’ She kind of made me feel and act like a young school boy.”
And Brian pays homage to Jen’s powers of seduction, insisting of their super-fast first meeting, “I was only on set for seven hours. But the old quote says it best, ‘She had me at hello’. I had a crush on her. It was impossible not to. Jennifer knocked my socks off.”
