Creature of Habit

Jennifer Aniston spent another Christmas without a man. The friends star was seen dining at Maestro’s in LA on Christmas Eve with her BFF Courtney Cox and her hubby David and daughter Coco ­ but no John Mayer in sight. The pals continued their annual tradition of dinner at the fancy Beverly Hills steakhouse, where witnesses said Jen and Courteney chatted all night. Jen was also very sweet to Coco and the two giggled together. Jen nibbled on fish and veggies and sipped white wine, seeming to have a fabulous dinner. But where was John? It looks like trouble again.
