Jennifer Aniston cooks chilli at Christmas. The 'Marley and Me' actress and her family have eaten the spicy dish during the festive period ever since she was a child.

She said: "My favourite tradition is picking out my tree and then the tree trimming. I just got mine! And there's eggnog, Christmas carols, usually chilli, cupcakes. I've cooked the chilli - my mom has a great recipe.

But now I have a lovely lady cook it because I want people to be happy!" Jennifer, 39, recently joked she spends holidays and weekends with ex-husband Brad Pitt, his new partner Angelina Jolie and the couple's six children.

During a revealing interview with America's GQ magazine, for which she posed nude wearing just a necktie, the actress joked: "The funny thing is, people don't realise we all go away to The Hamptons on the weekends.

That would be hysterical - I've got Zahara on my hip, and Knox there too!"
