Who was better-looking in their prime: Jennifer Aniston or Sarah Jessica Parker?

Jennifer - she was pretty cute in the early years of Friends.

Jennifer....and she's still pretty.

What a stupid question.

R4, why a stupid question?

Aniston was prettier but Parker was sexier.

Jennifer Aniston was prettier, just as stylish, and had far better hair than ole horseface.

Anyone agree that they lookalike?

Sarah Jessica Parker has always looked like a monster

Jen projects more warmth, which is attractive.

How in the world am I supposed to decide between those two ravishing beauties?

Sarah was quite the bombshell in the early 90s. Jennifer was never sexy.

Jennifer has a more laidback “cool chick next door” vibe.

SJP’s appeal was always more about the clothes/fashion she wore.

Jen’s appeal was more about her hair and her likable vibe/personality.

They both have great figures, bright blue eyes, and decent skin. Anniston could never be called ugly, but her face isn’t great. Parker can look pretty hag-like, but had the better body. I don’t think men ever thought Parker was hot, but they definitely went for Anniston.

Both did the best they could with their natural faces and seem to have a lot of confidence.

Jennifer may be prettier, but SJP always had the hottest boyfriends.

The only exceptions are that JA ended up with Brad Pitt & Justin Theroux as husbands. Both men are hot, , and SJP’s husband, Broderick, is not hot at all.

Sarah Jessica Parker

The average straight guy would do Jennifer before SJP even in their younger years

I’m not seeing the evidence that SJP was a “bombshell”.

In the late 80's/early 90's SJP was cute. Then she got horsey looking and we were still supposed to buy that every man wanted her on SATC.

I thought SJP was pretty the season of SATC when she had long straight blonde hair. But she sure got ruff looking in that series.

R6 nails it. Jennifer has always had a pretty and wholesome vibe but young Parker was sex on legs. You weren't looking at her face, your eyes were drawn straight to her perky tits and her curly hair.

Fuck off op. And I mean it!

Hair has nothing to do with beauty. Beauty is all in the face.

Hair is basically just an accessory to go along with the face, so I don't know why people are commenting on hair in this thread since whether you're good-looking or not is based on your facial features.

If you have a beautiful face, you can pull off any hairstyle. Aniston and SJP only have ever had longer hair because they are not classically beautiful and need long hair to distract from their faces.

Halle Berry for example can pull of any hairstyle because she has a perfect face.

So just out of curiosity, why is hair so important to certain people?

R5, Parker was too gaunt and horsey. Food is nutritious and vanity pleasing

Was SJP ever overweight even once her entire life? Just wondering.

R26 overweight? I don’t she ever even hit 100 lbs before she turned 50.

About her though - there’s an IG page that shows pictures (great ones) from a ton of premieres, awards shows, and benefits from the 80s and early 90s. SJP and RDJ are practically in ALL of them. To a ridiculous degree. And what was she in of note before LA story? Not much. That relationship helped her career in a major way - in a way that she wouldn’t have stayed on the map anywhere near that long otherwise (until the right part finally came along).

So THATs why she “put up” with his massive drug problem abs whatever else she had to put up with.

Jennifer Aniston was an alluring It Girl of her day. Her Rachel hairstyle was everywhere. SJP was cruelly voted the unsexiest woman alive by Maxim. SJP looked fetching in Hocus Pocus, Striking Distance, and Ed Wood.

SJP had/has an attractive voice and I always thought this was part of her appeal. JA's voice grates after awhile.

But JA found herself a hairdo that minimizes some of her facial flaws and played up her assets. You know, like a good hair style is supposed to do. This is why I cannot understand why everyone has the same hair right now. Everyone needs to figure out what suits their own facial shape! SJP always wear hair styles that accentuate the length of her face, thus making her look worse. JA was/is better.

SJP dated JFK jr.

He liked the horsey type ( Daryl Hannah and his wife)

R22 said no straight man in history

Eh, r32 I am not r22 but I remember when Honeymoon in Vegas came out and SJP was in a bikini showing off her amazing figure. I am gay as can be but remember being surprised that the dorky girl from Square Pegs and Footloose got hot. I don’t think Jennifer Aniston has ever been hot or sexy.

R33 I am straight. SJP has a masculine frame to her body, it isn't appealing, and her face is even more disgusting. Jennifer Aniston isn't a bombshell or anything she was just really pushed by the media but she was hot in her prime. She looked like a real pretty woman you could meet somewhere who would be approachable and realistic, if that makes sense. The girl next door thing. I don't remember other guys ever really picking her out as a favorite but she blows SJP out of the water in sex appeal. Gay men seem to find features that are attractive on men to be attractive on women too but that makes sense obviously

Jennifer Aniston has been discussed at length on here before. But, she’s a perfect example of a woman who had great hair and used it to her advantage to turn a 6 face into a 9.

SJP was very pretty when young when she had curly hair and 80s and early 90s makeup and fashion. I don't understand why people call her ugly, she was cute and sexy on Sex and the City and had a good body. Jennifer Aniston was more girl next door cute though I always thought she was overrated. She got better looking with age especially in the late 90s and 2000s.
