Jennifer Aniston has uploaded a selfie to social media, and internet sleuths couldn't help but spot a sweet little detail.
In the image, Aniston, who shared that she had just cast her vote in the U.S. presidential election, encouraged her followers to participate in the democratic process as well.
The election is due to take place on November 5 but some have been voting early, such as Aniston.
Either Kamala Harris or Donald Trump will be sitting in the White House soon, and many celebrities have encouraged people to get out and vote.
Aniston’s caption began with an enthusiastic greeting: “Hi friends,” before she explained the values that influenced her vote.
She said: “Today not only did I vote for access to health care, for reproductive freedom, for equal rights, for safe schools, and for a fair economy, but also for SANITY and HUMAN DECENCY.”
She reminded followers of the importance of every individual’s voice, regardless of political differences.
“Please remember that whoever you are and wherever you live, your voice matters. Your VOTE matters,” she wrote.
Addressing the divisiveness in today’s political climate, she urged: “GOOD LORD aren’t you tired of this negativity towards each other? The intimidation and constant threats to those who do not think the same as the other?”
Aniston expressed her hope for unity, emphasizing the need for a leader who would “unite us and not continue to threaten to divide us.”
She ended with a rallying call: “We are so lucky we get to VOTE and this election is in our hands! We only have one week until Election Day so talk to your friends, your family, your neighbours and let’s find our way back to each other with respect, common cause, and LOVE.”
However, despite sharing a snap to tell her followers that she's voted, fans picked up on something else in Aniston's picture.
There are two framed pictures on her side table, each featuring her beloved dogs, Clyde and Lord Chesterfield.
Aniston’s selfie was taken in her luxurious 10,186-square-foot Bel-Air mansion, a midcentury modern home valued at approximately $45 million, per News.com.au.
Aniston, a lifelong animal lover, has always shared a deep bond with her pets.
The actress, who lost her beloved dogs Norman in 2011 and Dolly in 2019, recently opened up about her passion for animals and her commitment to rescue initiatives.
In a 2022 interview with People, Aniston shared that her love for animals extends well beyond her current pets.
“If I could have a llama, a pig, an alpaca, sheep, goats, I would,” she said. “But I have to be very sensitive to Clyde and Sophie because it’s all about whether they are going to be happy.”
Aniston has even channeled her affection for her dogs into a creative project, launching a children’s book series inspired by her dog Clyde, titled Clydeo Takes a Bite Out of Life.
Sharing her excitement with fans, she said: “I could never have imagined how much joy [Clydeo] would bring to his fans and followers.”
The Friends star hopes that Clyde’s adventures will resonate with readers.
“I could not be more thrilled to be taking Clydeo and his stories to publishing, where he will hopefully inspire children and dog lovers alike with his adorable journey to find his true passion,” she added.
Proceeds from the book series support the Clydeo Fund, a charity dedicated to raising awareness for animal rescues and promoting pet adoption.
Aniston hopes to bring attention to the critical need for resources in shelters. “We can get awareness out and help the shelters that are in desperate need,” she told People.
Highlighting the urgency of the issue, Aniston expressed her heartbreak over the high rates of euthanasia for adoptable animals.
“They can’t keep up. And all you see is that we’re euthanizing innocent, beautiful, perfectly fine two-year-old dogs, or a puppy, or a litter. I can’t. It’s too much. It’s too many,” she said.
