Jennifer Aniston has set the record straight on some of the wildest rumors that's ever been said about herself.

Now we all know that not everything you read on the internet is factual, especially when it comes to celebrity gossip.

The bigger the celebrity the more that is usually written about them, with Aniston being one of those who makes the front pages of magazines and newspapers regularly.

The Friends star stopped by Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Wednesday (2 October), where she was shown a copy of the August issue of In Touch magazine.

On it, a headline that reads 'The Truth About Jen And Barack', with many stories about the 55-year-old actor included.

Kimmel posed some of this speculation to Aniston on his chat show, giving her the opportunity to confirm or squash the rumors.

Barack Obama

The magazine claimed Aniston had developed a close relationship with former US president Barack Obama, which had apparently angered Michelle Obama.

The Morning Show star did address this at the time, but she was able to offer her own point of view on Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Aniston said: "Of all the calls you get from your publicist where you’re just like, ‘Oh no, what’s it going to be?’, or the email saying, ‘Some cheesy tabloid is going to make up a story’... and then it’s that,” she remarked. “I was not mad at it!”

While Aniston acknowledged she had met Obama once in the past, saying they know each other is going a bit far.

"That is absolutely untrue," she insisted.

Belly dancing during Christmas

There has previously been speculation Aniston's family would make her belly dance during the Christmas period.

While this is true, it wasn't during the whole holiday season.

"It wasn't just Christmas Eve. It was like when you say to your child, ‘play piano for everyone’, or ‘let’s sing for everyone’," she revealed.

"I get such anxiety when my friends do that to their children, because I have inner trauma from having to perform and belly dance for my Greek aunts and uncles and grandmothers. I get it!"

Her therapist's ashes

Well, this one needs some explaining.

Of the rumor, Kimmel said: "You have a zip lock bag filled with your therapist's ashes."

While you'd think the story would just be some tabloid gossip, Aniston admitted there was some truth to this.

"That’s a little true… I’m going to sound like I really need a therapist after this," she confessed without going into further detail.

Aniston also admitted she did have a 'salmon sperm facial', does travel abroad with jars of olives but denied installing a $4,000 anti-aging water filter for her dogs.
