Jennifer Aniston: Desperate to be edgy

OHMYGOSSIP — Jennifer Aniston is giving herself an edgy makeover and once again become a fashion icon. The actress’ shorter hair and piercings are part of a determined plan to change her image. A source told RadarOnline that Aniston’s new style guru Kate Young is behind the change.

“Jen’s new look is far from the nonchalant boredom-driven choice that she’s playing it off to be,” an insider said.

“This change is entirely the creation of Kate, who is so influential in the New York fashion magazine scene. Kate will make sure magazines are using models with Jen’s new hairstyle and overall look by February.

“Kate and Jen planned to match her style with Justin’s a little bit more. But also, they really want to see how far they can push the rest of America.

“Kate has reignited Jen’s interest in being America’s primary hairstyle and fashion trendsetter.”

Jen will be throwing out some of her $5,000 cocktail dresses that have won her red carpet raves.

“Jen cuts up some of her expensive clothes and puts them in the recycling bin because she doesn’t want them to end up on EBay,” the source added.

“Her wardrobe now has a lot more jeans and boots as she’s making room for Kate’s new styles.”
