Academy Awards 2009 Recap (Jennifer Aniston vs Angelina Jolie)

Fashion experts agreed that Aniston's metallic Valentino gown easily outshone Jolie's dreary black dress.
Aniston was there to co-present the best animation award with Jack Black and as the pair bantered on stage the television cameras panned to Jolie, perhaps hoping to see her glaring at the woman who recently described her as "really uncool". But Jolie laughed away at Aniston's jokes.

Jolie is a past master at not betraying her emotions on awards night - she also smiled gamely at the Golden Globes when Kate Winslet forgot her name and referred to her as "the other one".

The Tomb Raider actress was seated with her partner and Aniston's ex-husband, Brad Pitt. Friends actress Aniston attended the ceremony with her boyfriend, musician John Mayer.

The couples were seated only a few rows apart but didn't speak during the show. They also managed to avoid one another on the red carpet.
