Jennifer Aniston
Jennifer Aniston is the girl next door - witty, charming, with a smile that lights up the room. Men want to be with her and women identify with her. She was, she admits, more of a professional waitress than an actress before she auditioned for a new sitcom, Friends. The show ran for ten years and was a huge international success. Suddenly Jennifer was famous, her life transformed. At the height of her TV fame Jennifer fell in love with Brad Pitt. They married in 2000, becoming Hollywood's golden couple. After four years, however, her life was turned upside down when she and Brad split and her obvious despair was there for the world to see. If anything, the new vulnerable Jennifer is even more popular than the old vivacious Rachel version when she had the most copied hairstyle in the world. Based on in-depth new research, Jennifer examines how she is fighting back and reveals the true woman behind the Rachel Green facade. It is an affectionate portrait of a much loved star.

Routledge Handbook of Sport, Gender and Sexuality
The Routledge Handbook of Sport, Gender and Sexuality brings together important new work from 68 leading international scholars that, collectively, demonstrates the intrinsic interconnectedness of sport, gender and sexuality. It introduces what is, in essence, a sophisticated sub-area of sport sociology, covering the field comprehensively, as well as signalling ideas for future research and analysis. Wide-ranging across different historical periods, different sports, and different local and global contexts, the book incorporates personal, ideological and political narratives; varied conceptual, methodological and theoretical approaches; and examples of complexities and nuanced ways of understanding the gendered and sexualized dynamics of sport. It examines structural and cultural forms of gender segregation, homophobia, heteronormativity and transphobia, as well as the ideological struggles and changes that have led to nuanced ways of thinking about the sport, gender and sexuality nexus. This is a landmark work of reference that will be a key resource for students and researchers working in sport studies, gender studies, sexuality studies or sociology.
