POP CULTURE

Jennifer Aniston comments on JD Vance’s “…childless cat lady…” comments: “I can’t believe this is coming from a potential VP of The United States. All I can say is … Mr. Vance, I pray that your daughter is fortunate enough to bear children of her own one day.”
“I hope she will not need to turn to IVF as a second option. Because you are trying to take that away from her, too.”
