Jennifer Aniston Reigns Supreme in Little Black Dress and Rocks Trendy Lob Hairdo at 2024 People’s Choice Awards

The actress from ‘The Morning Show’ won the title of Drama TV Star of the Year at the awards ceremony.

At the 2024 People’s Choice Awards, Jennifer Aniston opted for a classic look that stole the show. Despite skipping the red carpet, the 55-year-old actress made a memorable entrance on stage in a stunning strapless black dress to present Adam Sandler with the People’s Icon Award. This moment was especially significant as it marked four years since Aniston herself received the same honor in 2019. Later in the evening, Aniston took home the award for drama TV star of the year for her role on The Morning Show.

Aniston’s outfit was simple yet elegant, with an asymmetrical hemline that fell above the knee and side pleats adding a touch of sophistication. She accessorized with a dainty necklace and ankle-strap heels, completing the look with her signature style.

Aniston flaunted a chic lob that grazed her shoulders and was slightly shorter than the ’90s-inspired hairstyle she sported at the Golden Globes in January. After the buzz surrounding her Globes hair, Aniston’s longtime hairstylist and friend, Chris McMillan, shared on Instagram that he aimed to create a “sexy, natural, and effortless” look with “invisible layers” incorporated throughout.

With great admiration, she declared Sandler as “The People’s Icon.”
