Jennifer Aniston has arrived at the 2024 Golden Globes, and her look is classic Jen. Except for one thing: a much shorter haircut.
Aniston stuck to her signature style, wearing a custom black strapless dress by Dolce & Gabbana featuring a scalloped skirt. But the star, who has maintained long hair for the better part of the last three decades, showed off a shoulder-length hairstyle that could even be described as a lob (that is, a long bob).
Of course, Aniston’s shorter “Rachel” haircut in the mid-’90s was a sensation, but it’s not a style she has shown much regard for in recent years.
Talking to People in 2022, Aniston said that her hairstylist Chris McMillan (whom she still works with regularly) was “the bane of my existence because he started that damn Rachel, which was not my best look.”
Jennifer Aniston is at the ceremony to support The Morning Show, which is nominated for best drama series (her costar, Billy Crudup, is also nominated). In addition to starring as Alex Levy on the Apple TV+ series, Aniston is an executive producer.
Aniston herself was nominated for The Morning Show in 2020 and 2022 and has five total nominations under her belt, as well as one win, in 2003 for Friends.
The Globes red carpet marks Aniston’s first public appearance since the death of her Friends costar Matthew Perry on October 28. Perry was 54.
In November, Aniston shared a tribute to her friend and costar on Instagram.

“Oh boy this one has cut deep... Having to say goodbye to our Matty has been an insane wave of emotions that I’ve never experienced before,” Aniston wrote alongside a slideshow of photos. “We all experience loss at some point in our lives. Loss of life or loss of love. Being able to really SIT in this grief allows you to feel the moments of joy and gratitude for having loved someone that deep.”
Aniston also wrote about the Friends cast’s special bond as a group. “He was such a part of our DNA. We were always the 6 of us. This was a chosen family that forever changed the course of who we were and what our path was going to be.”
