It was a tough day  for Jennifer Aniston.

First she was  snubbed by the Oscars on Thursday when the nominations were announced then she  had to face Angelina Jolie on the red carpet (the first time in six years)  before losing the Best Actress gong at the Critics’ Choice Awards to Julianne  Moore.

But she wasn’t the  only one to lose out as her former love rival Jolie also lost in the directing  category to Richard Linklater.

Jolie and Aniston  were clearly seated far apart from one another at the ceremony.

When Julianne Moore  was announced as the winner for her moving turn in Still Alice, Aniston, 45, was  visibly emotional.

The former Friends  star looked to be a bit teary eyed as Moore took to the stage, no doubt feeling  the disappointment of the loss.

‘One thing I know  is that I’m a girl’s girl,’ Julianne began in her speech, before giving a shout  out to her fellow nominees Reese Witherspoon, Rosamund Pike, Aniston and  Felicity Jones. 

‘I am so inspired  by you all and just honored to be in your company’.

Jennifer appeared  to be particularly touched by her mention, as she seemed to be tearing up when  Julianne said she felt her ‘pain’.

But when Jolie, 39,  lost out to Linklater, who won for his film Boyhood, she was a bit more  composed. The actress turned director cheered on Linklater and appeared to be  quite happy for the veteran auteur.

The two stars  attended the awards ceremony on Thursday night at the Hollywood  Palladium.

But Brad Pitt was  noticeably absent while Aniston made sure to bring her man Justin Theroux to the  event.

And while the women  did not face off in the same nominations category they certainly had a fashion  showdown.

Angelina opted for  a glamorous silver gown that cinched tight around her waist, displaying her slim  but voluptuous body.

Aniston sported a  blazer without a bra or undershirt with matching suit pants and a series of  elegant chains over her chest.
