Jennifer Aniston finally spoke up about the rumors that she dated Barack Obama.

Jennifer Aniston wants to clear up some rumors about her dating life. After being in the public eye for so long, she’s had her fair share of gossip, but she recently addressed one of the wildest stories.
During her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on October 2, she was asked about an article that claimed she was secretly dating former President Barack Obama. She couldn’t help but laugh at the idea.

Jennifer Aniston said that when she gets calls from her publicist, she often worries about what story will come out next, especially when a tabloid is involved. But when she heard the rumor about her and Barack Obama, she wasn’t upset. She quickly confirmed that it’s completely false.
She even mentioned that she has a better relationship with Michelle Obama than she ever did with Barack Obama.

Jennifer Aniston said, “It’s not true. I met him once, and I know Michelle better than him.” When Kimmel jokingly asked if there was anything more than friendship between her and Michelle, she laughed and denied it.

Jennifer Aniston’s denial of the dating rumor comes at an interesting time because October 3 is Barack and Michelle Obama’s 32nd wedding anniversary. Last year, to celebrate, Barack shared a special post on Instagram for Michelle, saying, “I love going through life with you by my side.” He also called her “brilliant, kind, funny, and beautiful,” and mentioned how lucky he feels to have her in his life.
