Posing provocatively in nothing but a striped necktie, Jennifer Aniston has appeared in her most sultry photoshoot to date to grace the front cover of American GQ magazine.

The former Friends star took the opportunity to show off her stunning honed figure, which defies the fact that she will turn 40 next year.

Aniston, who earlier this week gushed about her love for her 'extraordinary' boyfriend John Mayer, also fanned the flames over her rivalry with Angelina Jolie.

In a barbed remark, the actress joked that she goes on holiday with Jolie and Brad Pitt on weekends.
