Jennifer Aniston: searches for a sperm donor in her new movie 'The Switch'

Submitted by prideangel.com on Sun, 08/08/2010 - 5:52pm

Jennifer Aniston plays a wannabe mother who undergoes artificial insemination, using what she believes is the perfect donor's sperm, to get pregnant.
And when it comes to off screen it seems Aniston would allow life to imitate art, insisting that if she ever went that route she too would definitely 'wanna know the guy'.

Aniston revealed her preference during an appearance on Jay Leno's Tonight Show, in Los Angeles.

In The Switch, Aniston plays singleton Kassie who is desperate to have a baby. Ignoring the objections of her best friend, Wally (played by Jason Bateman) she decides to go it alone.

Kassie chooses a handsome and charming donor but before she can complete the act of insemination, unbeknown to her, a drunk Wally swaps the sperm for his own.

The switch isn’t discovered until seven years later when he finally meets her precocious, though slightly neurotic, son.

Aniston has talked about her desire to be a mother one day, telling Entertainment Weekly 'I'm on the verge of it in some way...it's something I long for.'

Making light of a sensitive issue

Submitted by wantto bemom on Tue, 08/10/2010 - 8:34am.

I just saw the preview to the new movie for Jennifer Aniston. I can not believe that they would make such a joke out of a very personal issue. There are thousands of woman in the world who want to be moms and can not without going through IVF or IUI which for alot of woman they can not afford and insurance does not cover. I myself went through IVF got pregnant only to loose it at 7 weeks that was my only shot because I do not have another $15,000.00 to try again. I then see that a movie is coming out making fun of a very delicate issue and it truly makes me sick. I am part of a IVF forum and over half of the woman on there are having to give up there dream of being a mom because we don't have the means to try again because of the cost ond insurance does not cover. I hope you there are other woman who feel the same way I do. I just think that when you make a movie like this that maybe you should think about all the woman out there who will watch this movie or maybe not because it will truly break their hearts.
