Rihanna Gets Advice from Jennifer Aniston

Everyone enjoys giving Rihanna advice - even Jennifer Aniston!

The singer has reportedly been getting close with Aniston after her assault by her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, who is now on probation for five years after the incident.

“Jen has her fair share of imperfect relationships but not one of those men was ever disrespectful to her physically,” said Aniston’s movie producer pal Ray Manzella. “No one would dare lay a hand on her because they know they just couldn’t get away with it.”

And Manzella is hoping that she can sink in to the hitmaker. “Hopefully that will rub off on Rihanna. She needs someone who can set the example that no woman should be treated with anything less than respect. I think Jen’s the one to do that.”

The fun 40-year-old Aniston shared that she is the “go-to-girl” when her friends are in need.

“My friends come to me in tough times for advice,” she said. “I am the go-to girl a lot but I love that. I love helping friends.

And maybe her advice will help snag her a special man of her own soon! “I’ve been the recipient of great information and advice and a giver of it but when you are in need I think you have got to show up — whether it’s to celebrate or to console or whatever. I think it’s about consistency, loyalty and honesty.”
