Happy birthday, indeed.

Jennifer Aniston helped BFF Courteney Cox celebrate her 45th birthday Tuesday night at Bouchon Beverly Hills. Also at the fete: pal Laura Dern and four other pals, a source tells UsMagazine.com.
Unlike the Cobb salad Cox and Aniston dined on every day for 10 years while taping Friends, the birthday girl chowed down on steak. Both she and Aniston — who was dressed down in jeans, a loose brown tank top and a beaded necklace — drank red wine, the insider tells Us.

“The group sang happy birthday to Courteney and they cheers-ed a few times,” says the source. “They all seemed to be laughing and having a great time.”

Aniston even put up with an overzealous fan who “grabbed her pretty obnoxiously,” the source notes. “[The fan] asked her to take a picture with her. Jennifer kindly took the picture though everyone couldn’t believe how she grabbed her. But Jennifer was very sweet about it.”
The group wrapped up with dessert around 10:45 p.m.

Showbiz Spy is reporting that “Jennifer Aniston has a new man in her life!”

And who might that be?

Jason Sudeikis of “Saturday Night Live” fame, claims the site.

According to Showbiz Spy – and other equally dubious sites – Aniston has “enjoyed a series of secret dates with Jason, who she met last year when they appeared in The Bounty Hunter together.”

Showbiz Spy notes, “During filming, Jen and Jason’s relationship was strictly platonic because Sudeikis was still married. However, now the actor is divorced and… the pair have taken things to the next level.”

The blog even trots out an unnamed “source” who says Aniston’s “thrilled” to be dating Sudeikis, and that she “finds him hilarious.”

Actually, what’s hilarious is that Showbiz Spy printed this inaccurate story, and Lemming-like sites such as Hollyscoop and Perez Hilton similarly jumped off journalism’s cliff – and crashed.

Aniston’s rep, who had no idea where this erroneous report came from, tells Gossip Cop that talk of the actress dating Sudeikis is “completely false – she hasn’t even seen Jason since filming.”

 Jennifer Aniston to Get Killed Off in Scream 4,” screams a headline from Hollyscoop, which claims an “exclusive.”

Hollyscoop adds, “According to Star, Jen is rumored to be joining her friend Courteney Cox for the film. An insider told the mag, ‘Jen will play a woman who’s killed off in the opening sequence, a trademark of the franchise — as a favor to BFF and Scream actress Courteney. The role will be similar to Drew Barrymore’s killer part in the first film.’”

Wait…

How is this an “exclusive” if Hollyscoop acknowledges they’ve only heard “a rumor” and it’s all “according to Star”?

The site, which has admitted it posts inaccurate info just to get hits, then notes that at a recent event they asked Cox “if she could tell us anything about Scream 4, and Cox told Hollyscoop exclusively, ‘Nothing. If I told you one thing I would actually be killed right here on the spot.’”

Wait…

So their “exclusive” is that Cox told them “Nothing”?

As if Hollyscoop hadn’t already embarrassed itself with its shoddy reporting, the fact of the matter is that Aniston will NOT be killed off in Scream 4.

A rep for Aniston confirmed to Gossip Cop that the Hollyscoop and Star stories are “not true.”

In the June/July issue of Details, Bradley Cooper sets the record straight on Jennifer Aniston — but refuses to dish on girlfriend Renee Zellweger.

Despite going on a dinner date with Aniston, 41, in NYC last year while she filmed her box office dud The Bounty Hunter, Cooper, 34, downplays their relationship.

“I’m reading about me taking Jennifer Aniston to my Bel Air mansion and having a candlelit dinner, and I was like, ‘That’s crazy. Never happened,’” he tells the magazine.

Describing Aniston as a pal, he says he even joked to her about various tabloid reports: “Hey, we should hang out — the other dates that we never had went so well.”

Adam Sandler takes Jennifer Aniston shopping in Beverly Hills for a ‘Pretty Woman’-style makeover in their new comedy, ‘Just Go With It,’ and ET goes along with them for all the fun!

“I was a kid in a candy store,” Jennifer tells our own Samantha Harris. “That was a fun perk. That would be like a kid being able to [film] at a water slide all day.”

In ‘Just Go With It,’ Adam plays a plastic surgeon who is romancing a younger woman (Brooklyn Decker). In order to cover up a careless lie, Adam enlists his trusty assistant/receptionist, played by Jennifer, to pretend to be his soon-to-be ex-wife. When the plan starts to backfire, everyone heads off to Hawaii for a weekend that will change the course of their lives.

The film, also produced by Adam, arrives in theaters February 11, 2011.

Jennifer Aniston’s enviable body is not the result of any diet of baby food, she tells PEOPLE.

“I’ve been asked lately, ‘Jen, what’s this baby food diet all about?’” she says. “I kept thinking: That’s the strangest question ever.”

Currently in Hawaii filming Just Go With It with Adam Sandler, Aniston was reportedly the latest celeb to try “The Baby Food Cleanse,” created by trainer Tracy Anderson, which entails eating 14 servings of pureed food each day followed by a healthy dinner.

“Sorry, but the last time I had baby food, I believe I was 1,” says the actress, 41, who has not worked directly with Anderson. “I’ve been on solids for about 40 years now.”

Farrell’s just been attached with Marion Cotillard to topline David Cronenberg’s “Cosmopolis,” an adaptation of Don DeLillo’s novel. Day’s in “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” and will be seen in New Line’s romantic comedy “Going the Distance.”
