LOS ANGELES - Jennifer Aniston isn’t done talking about Angelina Jolie.

In a new interview with GQ — one which finds Aniston in nothing but a necktie on the magazine’s cover — the star of the Christmas-due film, “Marley & Me,” once again tackled questions about her ex-husband Brad Pitt’s partner, Angelina Jolie.

And Aniston’s got even more revealing than last month’s Vogue feature, which found her calling Jolie's year-old remarks about working with Brad on the set of “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” “really uncool.”

For starters, Aniston called stories related to herself, Pitt and Jolie the “insane Bermuda Triangle.”

And later, she admitted she does not speak to Jolie.

“No. Nuh-uh,” she told GQ, who asked if the two actresses talk.

Aniston hinted that future conversations might be a bridge the two won’t be crossing any time soon either.

When GQ writer Mark Kirby asked Aniston about Jolie’s October 2008 comments in the New York Times, where the “Changeling” star said she is eager to show her kids “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” because that was the movie “where their parents fell in love,” Aniston took some time to answer. After all, Pitt was still married to Jennifer while filming “Mr. & Mrs. Smith.”

“Well, you know, that was definitely a confirmation for me of something that wasn’t quite confirmed at the time,” Aniston told the GQ scribe. “But listen… You sit there and you… No. No daggers through the heart. I laugh. Am I surprised? Well, how do I say this?… Considering the source, nothing surprises me.”

While she has no relationship with Jolie, Aniston said she still — on special occasions — speaks to Pitt.

“We don’t not talk. When there’s something to congratulate or celebrate, there’s always an exchange,” she said. “But there’s no charge on it.”

And they even go away together — Aniston joked.

“The funny thing is that people don’t realize we all go away to the Hamptons on the weekends,” Aniston said completely tongue-in-cheek.

“Can you imagine?” she continued. “That’d be hysterical: I’ve got Zahara on my hip, and Knox…”

While she may joke about spending time with her ex and his family, Aniston grew serious when GQ asked about her relationship with “Gravity” singer John Mayer.

“We care deeply for each other,” Aniston told the mag. “And we’re just trying to figure it out.”

But as yet, she is not expecting a little Aniston-Mayer.

“I am not having his baby. And I have not popped the question,” she added.
