Jennifer Aniston reveals 'painfully worded' criticism at young age gave her a voice

Updated:6 years ago

New Delhi, Oct 13 (ANI): During childhood, even the slightest of criticism can leave a huge impact on kids. Children often hear comments that stay with them throughout their teenage and sometimes even impact the decisions they make later in life. And celebrities are no different. American actor Jennifer Aniston recently opened up about a painful childhood incident that she overcame with the help of the beloved sitcom 'Friends' and how that impactful moment remains a cornerstone of her sense of power even today. Reflecting upon the incident, Aniston recalled, “I remember a parental figure saying to me around the critical age of about 11, after a dinner party, that I was excused from the table because I didn't have anything interesting to add to the conversation.” "Ouch. It stuck to me, it stuck to me like painfully worded sentences can and if I'm being honest -- and I'm being honest because I'm 50 and that comes with the territory -- I carried that sentence with me into adulthood," Aniston said at Variety's Power of Women event.
