The Hollywood icons have a friendship that has lasted decades, through the highs and lows of the industry, including being there for one another through their close encounters with stalkers.<\/p>\n
“People are out of their minds,” Aniston said in her new cover story with Vanity Fair<\/a>, before the journalist noted the actor didn’t really want to discuss the subject.<\/p>\n “Who wants to put that energy out there,” she added.<\/p>\n The Friends<\/a> alum’s home is now being surveilled by a police cruiser and a private 24\/7 detail.

Per TMZ, the accused stalker had been bombarding Aniston with emails, voicemails, and social media messages.<\/p>\n Her concerns are something she shared with Bullock, who is still reeling from her own incident where a mentally ill individual broke into her home in 2014 while she was there.<\/p>\n “It makes me think, ‘Do I really have to go outside and navigate the world?,'” Bullock told the reporter for Aniston’s VF cover story. “There’s the cases where they got into the house, the cases where they\u2019re outside the house, the cases where you’re on a film set and they figured out where you are, and the cases that no one hears about. It’s ongoing. It’s not a one-off. And it does create a mindset where your home also unfortunately becomes your fortress.”<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jennifer Aniston Says ‘Of Course’ She and Gwyneth Paltrow Gossip About Shared Ex Brad Pitt<\/p>\n View Story\n <\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The pair now turn to each other for support and to convince the other to leave their home.<\/p>\n Bullock said: “There’s a motivation of going, ‘Okay, we need to go somewhere.

Police immediately arrested the man named\u00a0Joshua Corbett\u00a0without incident and, according to the report, he screamed out “Sandy” and “Sandy I’m sorry, please don’t press charges.” He pled no contest to felony stalking and burglary charges and later killed himself.<\/p>\n Read the full cover story here<\/a>.
