America's (if not Brad's) sweetheart makes people want to pick her up and take her home with them. So says a survey by Forbes.com of the faces that best sell magazines. According to an analysis of six celebrity weeklies over a six-month span, putting Jennifer Aniston on the cover boosted sales to the tune of five million total copies. Following Jen in gotta-read-about-it-ness was ex-hubby Pitt (the only gent to make the top 10), while ScarJo, Angelina and Reese Witherspoon rounded out the top five.

According to Forbes, beleaguered and oversaturated Britney, interestingly, does not move mags, but instead resulted in sales 600,000 below average. The only celeb to have a lower appeal rating than Brit was Paris Hilton.

Why would I want to waste good money on a magazine that featured a skank and, well, another skank? Of course Brit and Paris don't sell! They're overexposed in more ways than one.

People aren't buying these mags due to her "friendly face".... hell, a rich, beautiful, funny woman whose biological clock is CLANGING and is woefully inept at landing a man?

Yup, makes ME feel better just thinking about it. MY problems? Eh, ain't so bad, I guess :)

That's funny - she repels me from buying a mag if her mug is on it!

I've got to say, I lurves Aniston, but she's so over-exposed on magazine covers that I *hate* supermarket checkout lines. The mags and paparazzi should spend some of their time annoying Lauren Graham instead. :)

I bet the movie studios that keep putting Aniston in films would be really happy if magazine sales tranlated into box office. Girl could use a hit to back up all the hype. I like he alot but she's not exactly box office gold.
