Jennifer Aniston, Jill Biden Visit Breast Cancer Center In Virginia (PHOTOS)

The Huffington Post   First Posted: 10/03/2011 7:19 pm Updated: 12/03/2011 4:12 am

It's not often you hear the names "Jill Biden" and "Jennifer Aniston" in the same sentence.

But the two women came together today in support of breast cancer research, visiting the the Breast Care Center at the Inova Alexandria Hospital at Mark Center in Virginia.

The two chic blondes were joined by Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius and Kristin Hahn, co-producer of Aniston's newest film project, "Five." The Lifetime film series, composed of five short movies, chronicles different women's experiences with breast cancer.

The four women toured the center and met with doctors, who listened to the group talk about their own experiences with cancer.

Biden said that her "personal involvement with breast cancer started 20 years ago when several of my friends got breast cancer," compelling her to create a program in Delaware that invites doctors educate on the subject in classrooms.

Aniston, pool reports wrote, was particularly affected by nurse Ami Bhavsar, who spoke about the difficulties of helping patients without insurance.

The women's outfits did not distract from the experience, as Biden wore a very SLOTUS-esque ensemble consisting of a purple jersey dress, nude pumps and a long, silver necklace. Aniston kept it cool in jeans and a black sweater.

One unexpected accessory? A heart-shaped ring on the movie star's left hand, which had the press room buzzing after the event.

Take a look at Beiden, Aniston, Hahn and Sebelius on their Monday visit.

Jill Biden looks fantastic!

Can anyone tell me what color ribbon is being used for prostate cancer support? By the way there are more cases of prostate cancer diagnosed each year than breast cancer
04:50 PM on 10/04/2011
But in most cases it's not as deadly and why argue over either -- both should be addressed and if you want to start a ribbon crusade for prostate cancer -- just do it!

It's light blue. By the way, did you know that a percentage number of women AND men die from breast cancer than men do from prostate cancer?

Photo looks a little tense for Jen...

It must me difficult for someone that has made so much money because of her appearance have to think about the possibility of loosing a breast.. or both to cancer.

Early detection, aggressive follow-up....

Please take care of the boobies......

My mother died of breast cancer, and Monday, I was at the hospital most of the day having a biopsy in each breast. Now I wait for the verdict. jen standing around trying to look like she cares doesn't do anything for me. But the people that dealt with me were kind, compassionate, and caring. I agree, some patients can really touch your heart.

People in the Arts DON'T "contribute to society"???? What a ridiculous post. This is an article about BREAST CANCER and you rate their "hotness"??? Go slither back under your rock.

And yet neither is wearing a pink ribbon. Just what I thought photo op.
04:52 PM on 10/04/2011
Yep, a pink ribbon makes all the difference in the world to a woman fighting breast cancer! Who cares if anyone wears a ribbon -- that really has nothing to do with working to find a cure.

WHEN are these women going to 'fix' their hair. The straight, bangs in the eyes look is just awful.

So anniston got more media time pretending to care about breast cancer. . looks like another photo op for her. Damn she's got a good PR person. Doesn't she look so chic in her jeans and all black. Did you talk to any survivors, or patients, or was that too icky for you?

Why would you take an article about BREAST CANCER AWARENESS and turn it into a popularity constest between Anniston and the woman who slept with her husband?
Are you in junior high?

You must be NUTS!!! Joklee? Please!! She looks like her daddy with boobs

when will the american people get an update on the investigation that joe biden is spearheading concerning the 16.00 muffin scandel, america has a right to know
12:30 PM on 10/04/2011
This is getting so old. The Hilton has already cleared this up. The $16 was for a complete contential breakfast plus tip. It was shown on the bill as muffins when in reality it was no. This subject has been run into the ground already. Let it go. With all that is going on in America really this is what you are stuck on?
