Jennifer Aniston reveals career 'bucket list' ambition... over a month after 'stalker' scare
She is best known for her role on one of the biggest sitcoms on TV, but Friends star Jennifer Aniston has now revealed her hopes to appear on another big stage.
In an interview with People, the actress, 56, revealed her desire to perform on Broadway.
'I definitely want to do a Broadway play,' she told the outlet. 'That's on my bucket list.'
The problem is, the actress, who has off-Broadway experience from her early career, needs time to focus on 'finding the right piece, the right material.'
'But I absolutely have to do a play on Broadway,' she stressed.
The interview appears to be the first she has conducted since an alleged stalker trespassed into Aniston's home last month.
The busy actress, who has done both TV and film, also admitted she is 'forcing' herself to take a break.
'I'm a bit of a workaholic, so I'm forcing myself to try to take some time to travel and not work,' she said.
It comes a month after Aniston endured a major scare at her home.
Last month, a man named Jimmy Wayne Carwyle allegedly trespassed onto Aniston's Bel-Air property by ramming through the front gates - with the actress being home at the time of the incident.
He was arrested by LAPD officers after being apprehended by Aniston's own security team - but a subsequent ruling declared that Carwyle is mentally unfit to stand trial.
'He is not competent to stand trial so although I know it's not the outcome my client would have preferred at this time I would submit on those two reports,' public defender Robert Krauss informed the court during a hearing last month following a second analysis that concluded Carwyle was mentally unfit to continue with the case.
Deputy District Attorney William Donovan said: 'The people will also submit.'
And with that, Judge Cavalluzzi said from the bench, 'The court finds that the defendant is not presently competent to stand trial. Criminal proceedings are suspended.'
An 'interest of justice' hearing was scheduled for June 26 when Aniston or her attorney Blair Berk will be able to provide impact statements.
A more detailed report on Carwyle will be compiled by independent analyst Dr. Tumu at a cost of $1,100 to determine how to proceed with treatment for him.
Carwyle was arrested by LAPD officers on May 5 after ramming his car into the front gates of the Friends star's breathtaking $21 million hilltop Bel-Air home.
Prosecutors say Carwyle 'repeatedly' harassed Aniston between March 1, 2023 to May 5, 2025, sending her 'unwanted social media, voicemail, and email messages.'
In addition to stalking and vandalism charges, Carwyle was facing a charge for aggravating the threat of great bodily harm.

BREAKING NEWS Minnesota shooting survivor Yvette Hoffman reveals how gunman lined her family up execution-style to 'slaughter' them
The wife of the Minnesota senator who survived the horrific shooting last week said she, her husband, and their daughter were lined up execution-style by the alleged gunman to 'slaughter' them. Yvette Hoffman and her husband, Democratic State Senator John Hoffman, were left injured after alleged assassin Vance Boelter, 57, fired several shots at them inside their home in Champlin, Minnesota around 2am June 14. Their adult daughter Hope, who Yvette shielded with her own body while bullets rang out, witnessed her parents get shot and was the one who called 911 to report the brutal crime, Yvette said in a startling new Facebook post. Yvette, an educational support professional at a local elementary school, went on to slam police for not pressing more charges against Boelter - specifically the 'attempted murder' of her daughter. 'Our daughter Hope was lined up with John and myself execution style. We were all together in our entryway in a row with our hands up,' she wrote. 'She may not have gotten shot because of all the commotion but she was front and center WITH us. After we were incapacitated, she knew to go lock the door and call police and inform them senator Hoffman and mom were shot. Where are the attempted murder charges regarding my daughter? Where?' Boelter has only been charged with two counts of second-degree murder for the slayings of Democratic State Representative Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, and two of attempted murder for Yvette and John. The enraged mother went on to mention that Hope even had to stress that her father was a senator several times to the 911 dispatcher that dreadful morning. 'If Hope hadn't intentionally said SENATOR Hoffman the 4 times I remember her saying it to 911 dispatchers. More people would have been slaughtered,' Yvette said. Yvette shared startling new details about the horrific scene in a Facebook post Sunday Roughly 90 minutes after the Hoffmans were targeted, the gunman made his way to the Hortman's Brooklyn Park home - about eight miles from the first incident. According to Yvette, Hope was 'the reason officers knew to go to Hortman,' she wrote. They were tragically killed after Boelter allegedly opened fire on them in their home around 3am. Police encountered the gunman fleeing Hortman's residence around 3.35am and exchanged gunfire with him. Officers then let the suspect slip through the cracks as he escaped the scene on foot, according to authorities. Shortly after the unspeakable slayings, Boelter, a former appointee of Governor Walz, was sought by authorities. He surrendered to officers on June 15 after they located him in the woods near his home, bringing an end to a massive, nearly two-day search that put the entire state on edge. He was arrested and booked into Hennepin County custody on state charges. Acting US Attorney Joseph Thompson announced six new federal charges against Boelter for murder, stalking, and shooting offenses - while revealing that he went to two other lawmakers' homes with the intent to kill them that day. He is accused of posing as a police officer during the shootings. Boelter is also said to have worn a terrifying Halloween-style face mask during the attacks. Both Yvette and the senator were left injured. She was released Friday while her husband remains in the hospital in serious but stable condition. John was shot nine times while his bride was shot eight times. A bullet narrowly missed his heart, KARE 11 reported. Jenny Boelter, the alleged gunman's wife, was stopped by authorities at a convenience store while driving a car with the couple's children inside and found with a weapon, ammunition, cash and passports just hours after the shootings. She had their youngest children in the car along with $10,000 in cash, their passports and two handguns, according to federal court filings. Jenny, the president of the couple's private security firm, consented to a voluntary search of her electronic devices but wasn't arrested during the 10am traffic stop. According to an FBI affidavit obtained by WCCO, Boelter's wife told the investigator they were 'preppers,' meaning they 'prepare for major or catastrophic incidents.' Jenny Boelter (pictured), the alleged gunman's wife, was stopped by authorities at a convenience store while driving a car with the couple's children inside and found with a weapon, ammunition, cash and passports just hours after the shootings She said her husband gave her a 'bailout plan' with instructions to go to her mother's home in southwestern Wisconsin, which she initiated after receiving a text from her husband that 'they needed to get out of the house and people with guns may be showing up to the house.' The affidavit also stated that Boelter was driven to a bank in Robbinsdale, Minnesota, by an unnamed person and withdrew all $2,200 he had in a bank account in his name. The driver, listed in court documents as 'Witness 1,' is the same person investigators said sold Boelter an electric bike and a Buick sedan, which were found during the 43-hour manhunt last weekend. If convicted on a federal murder or terrorism charge, Boelter could end up being executed. Minnesota abolished the death penalty for state charges in 1911. He has not entered any pleas. Meanwhile, Boelter's wife has remained in hiding - as the accused assassin's defiant family were tight-lipped concerning her whereabouts, telling a Daily Mail reporter to 'piss off.' Jenny, a mother-of-five, rang pals only to say she was in a 'safe' location but wouldn't reveal where she was. She fled the family's bucolic farmhouse home in Green Isle, Minnesota, the morning of the crimes after Boelter hinted that he had done something monstrous in a 6.18am text. 'Dad went to war last night,' wrote of her 57-year-old husband. 'There's gonna be some people coming to the house armed and trigger happy and I don't want you guys around.' Shortly after his arrest, prosecutors said Boelter went to the homes of four different state representatives with the intention of killing them that morning. There's nothing in his charging documents to suggest Jenny had advanced knowledge of his alleged plot to slaughter dozens of Democrat lawmakers and pro-abortion activists.

EXCLUSIVE REAL story of Mamie Fish and her Primate Prince whose parties horrified Gilded Age America... and were even too wild for HBO's new hit series
Mamie Fish was no great beauty. Nor was she especially rich or well educated. But what she may have lacked in money and looks, she made up for in creativity. She was also very funny – despite what the many photographs showing her scowling grimly into the camera may suggest.

Mystery as huge $2.1M sculptures vanish from LA warehouse
A sophisticated art heist left a profound sculptor in shock when he discovered two enormous pieces were swiped from his warehouse. Sir Daniel Winn's two prized sculptures, Quantum Mechanics: Homme, and Icarus Within, were stolen from a warehouse in Anaheim Hills, California, on or around June 14. The massive sculptures were crafted with bronze and stainless steel. Icarus Within weighs a ton and stands at eight feet tall. The piece is valued at $350,000, while Quantum Mechanics is worth a massive $1.8 million. Winn told the Los Angeles Times that moving the sculptures for exhibitions requires a massive operation including a forklift, a dozen men, and a truck. The heist has also left police dumbfounded, as Anaheim Police Sergeant Matt Sutter admitted to the publication that authorities had little information. 'I have no idea where these sculptures are,' Sutter told the LA Times. 'They could be in somebody's house or in a shipping container somewhere. That's what we're trying to find out.' The officer added that in his 25 years with the department, he's never seen a burglary of this scale. 'We've had our share of high-end homes that were burglarized, but this type of crime, involving forklifts, trucks, crews and the sheer size of the sculptures is something I can't remember us having before,' he added. Warehouse workers told authorities that they last saw the sculptures on Saturday and arrived for their shifts the following Monday with the pieces nowhere to be found. Winn told local NBC affiliate, KABC, that the heist was a targeted attack and was doubtful that the thieves just wanted cash for scrap metal due to the scale of the operation. The thieves left other artwork and valuables in the warehouse. Winn is known as a 'blue-chip artist,' meaning he is internationally recognized and his work sells for high values. The artist came to the US as a child refugee fleeing the Vietnam War. He studied medicine at the University of California in Irvine, before deciding to pursue art. Winn is also the Board Chairman of The Academy of Fine Art Foundation and was knighted in 2018 for his non-profit work. He describes his art as Existential Surrealism, exploring themes related to his upbringing as a refugee. One of the sculptures stolen, Home, was featured in the film Creation in 2022 and was the only unsold work in his Quantum Mechanics series. Winn was gutted that his work was stolen and is now concerned the sculptures will be sold on the black market. 'These are my children. I have no physical, organic children. Every artwork I create is my child,' he told the LA Times.
