There are no doubts about it: Jennifer Aniston was definitely snubbed of an Oscar nomination for her performance in Cake.
But if you ask the actress herself, she’s more than a little surprised at all the support she’s receiving after Thursday’s announcement.
“Yeah, I’m the No. 1 snubbed,” she joked on Monday’s Ellen DeGeneres Show. “That’s the silver lining, right?”
She continued, “It hasn’t even come out. That’s the crazy thing. We’re so shocked and amazed that we have had this much love for a movie that hasn’t even been released yet.”
For those curious moviegoers, the film does in fact hit theatres nationwide this coming Friday.

E!
While the Friends alumna didn’t receive consideration for the Oscars, her performance as a woman fascinated by the suicide of someone in her chronic pain support group has already inspired a huge group of fans.
“What’s been so incredible is the amount of people that have come out to me who are suffering with chronic pain and in the same situation,” she explained to Ellen DeGeneres. “It’s unbelievable how much positivity it’s bringing to those who are kind of silently suffering. It’s a beautiful, hopeful movie.”
Besides, Aniston already secured a Golden Globe, SAG and Critics’ Choice Award nomination for her performance. Oh, and did we mention she got to grab Kate Hudson‘s butt on a recent red carpet?
“Well, my gosh, look at that ass,” she joked to DeGeneres when recalling her memorable Live From the Red Carpet moment. “It’s such an irresistible tush. I’m allowed. Ryan Seacrest tried to get in. Kate actually did say, ‘Oh well, that’s gonna go everywhere.'”
Sorry ladies, but it was just too good!
