Misleading title that's completely unfair to Jennifer Aniston!
AGREE
Hit the nail on the head with that one mate. Clickbait crap =)
and unfair to me
exactly. not surprised.
Yes, those annoying clickbait practices are actually so exhausting. Boy Who Cried Wolf. When wolf came one day, no one believed him anymore. That's gonna be the outcome. People will stop falling for it because every media outlet does it now. It's disrespectful to the audience, too.
""Tate Donovan: Working with an ex during break-up was awful"
There, fixed!
djlobb BUT would you have clicked? I wouldn't. That's "journalism" for ya.
srsly though
@@myonlybeauty You just mean the "current" standard of journalism. Also known as fake news.
dvchel you don’t know what it means when someone puts a word in quotations? also, are you so unintelligent that you’re unable to look past main stream news and find journalists who haven’t been paid off?
Sage Springs It seems you are so “unintelligent” that you think I’m attacking you which I am not. No worries about me, I don’t watch NBC, CNN or read the Washington Post, Politico or the HuffPo per see.
For them going through a break up while filming yet there was so much chemistry in those episodes....that’s pure talent! All this time I thought they met on set and dated after bc of how much chemistry they had.
Yes, during filming they were going through a break-up already. First began in February 1998 when things started to get sour. By the end of season four and him filming his last appearance, their relationship was already done in April 1998. But still they were able to put down a great performance. That is talent indeed. And it also makes sense in the way their relationship came on the tv-screen as part of the storyline.
How was he able to date one of the most beautiful women on earth .. I can't even date any chick ..so jealous :(
@@operacarmen Right there with ya..... It's hard sometimes but you get used to it.
@@nelsonhibbert5267 never 😢
@@operacarmen You're not the only one. Take some comfort in knowing that you're not alone in your loneliness. There's more of us out there than you realise. my only advice would be to occupy your time with hobbies/fitness, and as difficult as it is, try not to think about women too much. Make it the least of your priorities. There are always people in worse situations (we tend not to think about them, only the ones that are "ahead" of us like this guy). It's hard, but you'll be fine 🙂
He's aged wonderfully
Tate may be getting older but by God does his voice sound like a 20yr old.
Ikr I always looooved his voice
Probably a non-smoker. Don't forget alcohol. These two products can mess up a voice a lot.
Johnny Utah the voice of Hercules
Are you from Utah, if so do ya still live in Utah? Just wondering... Maybe we're neighbors 😘😉
I had to watch this bc I just found out he's the voice of Hercules. I'm like that sounds like channing Tatum or Ryan reynolds but he would've been like 2 lol
He is genuine and openhearted. And Aniston is always classy in her interviews. I like them both.
Just wondering why it didn't work out then. Busy schedules or something? Always out of town? Oh well.
lucky48 I adore them both!!
@Angelina Agree and disagree. There are aspects about Jennifer Aniston you can call authentic and inauthentic. Being too much into her looks and high maintenance (blond hair etc.) figures the inauthentic part. However, her personality is still relatively down to earth in comparison to the other known female actors who can't handle fame that well. I go both ways.
Sweet
Very irresponsible title.
Yes because it was not awful working with Aniston.
It's called "Click Bait" Lol
+MissShineATX Yes, and very HuffPost Live.
It's Huffington Post.
I thought so too. Dislike! Very misleading.
Although this title was of course misleading, I don't really mind, because I still really enjoyed this clip, and am actually happy to be click-baited here.
Misleading title.....
... Should have read- "Tate Donovan: Working with an ex during break-up was awful"
yes, very misleading. thats why i clicked. damn.
Hercules? Anyone? Anyone else? No?
mee!
yasssssssss
Base of Operation I can go the distance
YES
YES, Hercules! He was awesome in that movie. :)
I close my eyes and all I hear is Hercules.
Yas! yasyasyaysyaysyass!
ME TOO
I love how he can laugh at himself
Similar to Jennifer and all her failed relationships etc. She can laugh about it too. There is no harm laughing about your own life and the way things have gone that you maybe did not want to happen.
A sense of humour and able to laugh about yourself is always appreciated in a guy. It also shows intelligence and class. No wonder Jennifer Aniston fell in love with him.
@@dvchel More like humility. You can have all the intelligence and class in the world, but if you take yourself too seriously you'll just be seen in a negative light all the same. Being able to laugh at your failures and acknowledging how much it sucked without pretense is a sign of great self-awareness.
JOSH... OOH-AHH!
Hahahaa I'm watching the episode where she wants to marry him now.
Chris 1992 o
Hahaha you just made me literally burst out laughing!!
@@monamohamed6871 Lmao yeah, and then Gunther shouting: _"You IDIOT!!!"_ had me going on a roll. XD
He still loves her deeply. You can tell ❤️
It explains since realizing what he has done. Back when he was still dating her the road of endless opportunities were there. But then both he and Jennifer moved on. The latter with Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux most notably of course.
It is indeed interesting to see how a man can grow. It is obvious to see that Tate is feeling remorse for that he led her go back in the day. Probably because he did *not* want to marry her and commit fully to their relationship. After all, in the show it became obvious that this was a probably reason, since the writers were elaborating on their break-up anyway. You never stop learning.
I did not get that vibe at all.
It's so weird to hear that Jennifer and Tate had already broken up by the time they filmed 'Friends' together. They did a good job of hiding the off-screen tension. I was really rooting for their characters, Rachel and Joshua, to stay together. The Ross and Rachel "we were on a break" thing had already got annoying by that point, and it was refreshing to see Rachel have feelings for somebody else. It's a shame that the writers didn't keep Joshua in the storyline for very long. Maybe they decided that it would be too awkward for Tate and Jennifer to keep playing a couple, as they had just broken up in real life.
+iluvlafferty I always thought that their (Rachel and Joshua) break-up was kinda silly, but now i get why it happened
+iluvlafferty Same here. I did like Joshua but this makes sense why the writers wrote it that their relationship wouldn't last. To be honest, I thought they were still dating when Tate was guest staring.
Ikr I thought they were still dating when he guest on the show
iluvlafferty Actually he seemed awkward the whole time so I'm not surprised.
He mentioned that it was a six episode-deal, so apparently it was never meant to last long. He and Jen probably wouldn't have agreed to that anyway.
He’s way more attractive to me now than he was in Friends ☺️
Your Daddy Fetish is showing, hope your parents are aware of it.
title is misleading.
+Dominik Offermanns and is why we're all here
Blenda Portela yep, nice clickbait.
Yeah the clickbait
Who else came here bc they thought this was about working with Jennifer on one episode of the Hercules animated series? (Jennifer Aniston voiced Galatea in the episode "Hercules and the Dream Date". Another fun fact: Aphrodite was voiced by Lisa Kudrow.)
I always wondered about the timeline of their breakup and his being on the show. Now I know.
Tate has aged very well.
Change the title! Completely misleading and inaccurate.
I would have to agree with him. That would be completely awful having to work with your ex right after you break up with them. If I was him I think I would have said no. I think I'll pass on the 6 episodes.
Tate was excellent as Jimmy Cooper on The O.C. It was such a good role on such a good show. I miss it.
Nobody puts a negative spin on news better than Huffington Post.
I saw Space Camp at the theater when I was a kid and this guy really cracked me up. Always thought he should have been a bigger star, but he’s done pretty well for himself still.
I guess the title was misleading but I clicked on this wanting his perspective on how it was working with an ex
« I know.. I can do more than just cook! »
What an awkward way to end the interview - 'Hey, here's a puff piece article that we published about you. Your thoughts?' HuffPo is a disaster area of a news source at the best of times.
All I can do when I hear his voice is sigh dreamily and fantasize about Disney's Hercules lol...♥
RedRoseSeptember22 --- How old are you? You're an adult??
Right?
He did great when he played "Kevin Donaldson" in Space Camp!
Oh my god hercules.
It didn't sound like a bad break up they remained friends probably so it wasn't a bad break up like she had with brad pitt. If this was a bad break up they would never do that. So it seems like they were friends even after the break up. I love how he laughs at himself there lol
josh uuaa
Working with Jennifer Aniston is a good way to take the day off from an acting career that isn't going anywhere
Why was JJ Abrams giving interviews for HuffPo in 2013?
He is still so cute
Literally heard him tell this story today during the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade.
It's funny, it's April 2021 and I'm binge watching Friends from Season 1. And coincidentally, I'm in Season 4, and just saw this episode.
0:34 i think we're clicking
Ohhh I love these friends references
Hahaha I thought about it too when he did that
He dated her and they got engaged too, they broke up the same year she and Pitt stated to date
This guy voiced adult Hercules.... let that sink in.
misleading title to attract views. Of course it's crazily awful to work with your exes, I think Jennifer felt the same too. Glad he feels happy for her and her new boyfriend
He aged well! And of course Jen looks spectacular.
If they would have worked through it Jen would have been spared the Pitt nightmare.
Pitt spared the Jolie one !
Linny w I think that guy was the love of Jennifer's life if I am not mistaken
No it's Daniel McDonald..she spoke about it.
He passed away in 2007.
@@Luckythedog225 Nope, Brad Pitt was the love of her life. As she said herself in that 2005 Vanity Fair interview: _"we spent seven very, very intense and beautiful years together"_ a relationship and marriage. Her heart was obviously broken, also watching Brad moving on so quickly with Angelina Jolie. Jennifer was still grieving the loss of a marriage and future she had planned. Then of course two months after the announcement of their divorce having Brad Pitt brag about his new found flame Angelina. That hurt her really bad that made it more difficult to trust another man.
@@dvchel true. That. The variety fair Sept 2005 article was sweet and loving for the most part.
Josh-Oooo-Aaaah
Clickbait title at its finest... :)
Quite a few people on here are saying it's a misleading title. How is is it? He actually says it was horrible and tough! Is that not the same as awful? Did anyone actually listen to what he said?
Who is this host? I thought it was Gideon Yago from MTV back in the day and he just hadn't aged. lol
''From November 1995 to February 1998, she was in couple with Tate Donovan. They've been engaged but finally broke up''
Wow... never knew that. And I watch Friends every NIGHT and every day when I have a chance, in a loop, since 2011.
yes, my life is sad, but it's just that tv show makes me feel better somehow.
When I'm cooking and alone, I watch friends on a tablet, and so on. Before bed... while having lunch alone at home, etc. And it makes me "happy".
Point is: I never knew this and i had no idea, being a fan of the show, so thanks! :)
Wrong! They were *never* engaged. They did wear traditional Irish Friendship rings. She got this as a gift during their one-year anniversary. Also, yes they first began dating in November 1995, but soon it broke off. However they met each other a couple of weeks later again, and from February 1996 onward until February 1998 they were definitely a couple.
There were further numerous reasons for their eventual break-up. It was definitely not because Jennifer did not want to become a mother and raise a family together. She admitted this an interview back in July 1997. Tate did *not* like the attention they were having and the paparazzi that were constantly following them. Also, marriage seemed to have been an important reason. This fully explains why the writers were elaborating on this in the show. Jealousy was very important, since Jennifer's career was skyrocketing etc.
No she didn't want children but medical issues got in the way.
Jennifer's career took off Tates' didn't.
Aw I loved him with Jen
I'd be so annoyed if people started asking so many questions about my exs and not my career ....
It's good to see that Artie Ziff landed on his feet at Huffpost, after Ziffcorp went under.
They matched so so...much!
Huffpost journalism-:
*posts article about someone saying something*
"so did you actually say that?"
Misleading subtitle of this video
They used to date, in fact engaged.. idk what happened. But he did also guest on friends.
Not engaged, but wearing Irish Friendship rings. But I don't know either. Work, travel and attention perhaps.
Who broke up with who?
Seems like a cool guy
The Title of this video is totally misleading. Dodgy journalism.
Awful ???? Didn't hear that.
Working with my hot, gorgeous ex girlfriend was awful. ~ fixed
Who 'hasn't' Tate Donovan dated????
Half of Hollywood, reckon :-)
There's something really serious about Tate Donavan
He still sounds young
I think he didn't need to say it this way. I mean I understand working with an ex is not ideal but he was a bit brutal. He dated her once for a reason.
Probably just jealous of how her career turned out to be. Way more successful than his. But he was also uncomfortable with the attention. One of the reasons I read why the broke-up to begin with. Hating all the paparazzi.
He said it was awful and that he cried. He obviously still had feelings for at the time. He didn't mean SHE was awful. what's wrong with saying that?
Happy Birthday to Tate.9-25-63.NJ.
Hercules 😄
Wonder why they broke up? Sandra Bullock, he dated Sandra Bullock?
Yup. Jen and Sandy dated the same guy. They ve talked about it !
MEMPHIS BELLE WAS THE BEST MOVIE EVER CREATED
I wish i was workinh on friends cast at that time
Good on Jennifer not to stop it. Most women would have out of spite
this title makes Jennifer Aniston an amazing actress look awful! disappointing guys
I never knew she dated Tate Donovan. I remember the first episode he was in and how Rachel aka Jennifer Aniston reacted to Joshua aka Tate Donovan. My friend and I looked at each other and thought, what does Rachel see in him. They made him out to be some be heart throb that I will never understand and now knowing she went out with him for real??? Come on Jen? Do you have a mirror in your mansion. I remember hearing Justin Theroux would NOT marry Jennifer Aniston until she signed something in regards if they get a divorce and he gets such and such amount of money. I said, THAT MARRIAGE IS NEVER GOING TO LAST, and how stupid is she to fall for that. I love Jennifer Aniston as an actress and I think she is beautiful. If I believed in Karma then I would say, Brad Pitt got his from what he did to her. Tate Donovan...Woof. IMO
Interesting point of view and definitely contains important truths. Ironically enough, her father, who is a well known actor in Hollywood too, was discouraging her from following a similar career in acting because of the heartbreak she would suffer. It sort off became a reality after going through this with Tate, then with Brad and finally with Justin Theroux. Jennifer had to find out the hard way that Hollywood is a difficult place to find your soulmate or men in general willing to stick with you through the good times and bad times etc.
Nevertheless, what is most important is that Jennifer as a person in real life has *never* lost her class, grace, dignity and humility in the way how she has been handling issues ever since her divorce with Brad. Not trying to search for negative attention, writing nasty tweets or appearing in these talkshows etc. She really has kept a low profile so far. Meaning that you're never too old to learn.
Yes, Brad was karma in some sort off way. You still feel bad for their three biological children who did nothing wrong. But in the end the issues of commitment and marriage came to resurface and bother his relationship within Angelina too. You've got to realize at one point that you will *always* find some person in your life that may be even more perfect for you than the partner you're currently having.
@@dvchelJen s dad was telling her the heartbreak of being rejected by not getting roles you audition for. He was not talking about men. And Justin did not demand a payment pre-nup. Hell, Jen and Brad didn't have a pre-nup
he's cute.
Wtf kinda bait title is this
He was excellent in Damages 👏👏👏
I guess the producer was trying to fix their relationship
Jay Mohr said the same thing, he said she was extremely mean to him.
One actor, one time. It was poor casting
@carolandrews9406 David Spade said the same thing too...
He's not gonna pass up being on Friends no matter what. Lol
Cute story actually...would have been even a nicer anecdote without the click-bate title. Come on HuffPost.
Mi sono appena reso conto da dove conosco la sua voce ha doppiato a Hercules dal film disney.
Click Bait Title if ever there was one. How 'Bout "Working with my ex wasn't great". Seriously, HuffPost you know what you're doing when you title something like that. Bush league move.
Hey, its jimmy cooper
He still more or less looks exactly like Joshua, talk about a baby face
he was with jennifer anistion?
It took me by surprise too. Then again, I'm from the early 90's so not really aware of the whole F.R.I.E.N.D.S. buzz then, including the private lives of the actors and whom they were dating.
Very cool.
Hercules! 😍❤❤❤
FAKE TITLE.
Has he met Scott Weinger?
Tate said in the past that SANDRA Bullock was is always nice genuine beautiful lady but when speaking about Jennifer Aniston he always says she high maintenance n full of herself. ...hmmm ..Vince Vaughn has basically said same thing about Jennifer Aniston as well. ..
Really, high maintenance? Full of herself? I have been *unable* to find anything about this on the internet. Contrary, all her co-stars came to admit that Jennifer was a genuine, nice and very attractive lady. Take for example her co-star on Friends, David Schwimmer, who back in the day made the admittance that it was hard to find a woman out there in Hollywood that is as attractive and funny as she is. You could also listen to Tom Shadyac, the director of Bruce Almighty, one of her biggest box office hits, who came to admit how funny and such a sweet person she was.
The fact that today she is living a pretty much down-to-earth life in Los Angeles, with not much attention in the media, it is proving the contrary. Tate is probably just sour, similar to Vince, for having let her slip away and realizing what they miss now. If only they were smarter back in the day.
I'd imagine Courtney Cox was more high maintenance than Jennifer.
@@dvchel no he was making sure that Jennifer Aniston was not one stuck up girl. I dont think so.
@@Luckythedog225 What do you mean? Nobody else has ever called Jennifer selfish or a stuck-up person. If she was, then she and Courteney wouldn't still have been friends today to name one. Look at Tate's career, it's a c-list overview. Also, he's still single to this day. If there was anything wrong in their relationship, it was Tate being jealous of Jennifer's success, rise to stardom and getting great roles. Something he couldn't.
@@dvchel I said that we they met he made sure that she wasn't just on stuck up girl😊.
Wow he was amazing
Why did I watch this?
Memphis belle and space camp, movies of my childhood
Why people breack up in a bad way? Its like spitting on the plate you just ate
Jimmy Cooper dated Rachel Green...........sick LOL
Jen is the best and he is annoying jen is extremely warm hearted
And who is this guy?
Space Camp? Anyone? Say you remember that one.
I love the movie Hercules by the way!
They even dated at that time it's cute ❤❤❤
