Jennifer Aniston pokes fun at her love life

Jennifer Aniston poked fun at her love life as she accepted an award.

The 40-year-old actress – who has had several failed relationships since her divorce from Brad Pitt, most recently with singer John Mayer – mocked her run of bad luck with men when she took to the stage at the Women in Film Awards to accept the Crystal Award for Excellence in Film.

Host Chelsea Handler jokingly told her: "You have increased the visibility of women in film, and we thank you for that. “You've recently decreased the visibility of John Mayer, so we thank you for that."

Jennifer “laughed hysterically” and continued the joke with her speech.

She said: “I'm trying to be more careful than I have been in the past about the titles of movies that I choose to be in. It's funny - I kind of noticed something a couple years ago that I have a strange parallel with movies I was doing and my life off screen. First, it was ‘The Good Girl’...which evolved into ‘Rumor Has It’, followed by ‘Derailed’.

"Then there was ‘The Break-up’. Followed by the lighter side, ‘Friends with Money’.”

To end her speech, Jennifer jokingly appealed for her ideal movie role in the hope it will boost her chances of finding love.

She added: "If anyone has a movie called ‘Everlasting Love With an Adult Stable Man’, that would be great! I'm at table six, and my agents are at table 12."

The Women in Film Awards took place at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel in Los Angeles last Friday (12.06.09).
