On Monday night’s episode of Andy Cohen’s talk show, Etheridge, 58, took part in the “Iso-Lay It On Us” segment. A viewer asked the musician what she thought of the hype around Aniston, 50, and Pitt’s reunion earlier in the year.

The former couple came face-to-face during the awards season. Etheridge responded by joking: "I was hoping I could do your show without mentioning her whose name will not be mentioned."
