Jennifer Aniston got candid about her stand on intimate coordinators in a recent interview.

Aniston sat down with her "The Morning Show" co-star, Reese Witherspoon, for an interview with Variety, and they talked about the surprising twists and turns in the third season. One of the things they discussed was Aniston's intimate scenes with Jon Hamm and how they prepared for it.

"Having Mimi (Leder) there, you're protected. I never felt uncomfortable. Jon was such a gentleman, always -- I mean every move, every cut, 'You OK?' It was also very choreographed. That's the beauty of Mimi and our gorgeous editor, the music and lighting. So, you don't prepare," Aniston replied.

She mentioned, however, that the production made sure to consider them. They even offered an intimacy coordinator, but she wasn't up to it.

"They asked us if we wanted an intimacy coordinator. I'm from the olden days, so I was like, 'What does that mean?' They said, 'Where someone asks you if you're OK,' and I'm like, 'Please, this is awkward enough!' We're seasoned -- we can figure this one out. And we had Mimi there," the "Cake" star added.

Aniston's remark about the intimacy coordinator received mixed responses from netizens. Some understood her, while others brought back her ex-boyfriend John Mayer's opinion about her.

"John Mayer was always right about her. She's stuck in the past," one commented.

"Having seen firsthand the kind of work an intimacy coordinator actually does, it actually deflates the awkwardness and helps actors build boundaries and trust with one another. If it's not for her, that's fine, but it's legitimate work that can be effective for performance," a second user opined.

"Ah, Jennifer. Always on the wrong side of things," a third person claimed.

"Intimacy coordinators should be a requirement, not an option, because Jennifer Aniston is assuming consent from Jon Hamm and the rest of the crew who has to work with them," a fourth netizen added.

Some expressed support for Aniston. A few even defended her from those questioning her choice not to work with an intimacy coordinator.

"They certainly did well without the intimacy coordinator. The scenes were beautiful and really, well... u know?! Jon Hamm and Jen Aniston had great chemistry, and I think there's enough trust and partnership between them, so that's why she felt safe to do these scenes w[ith] him," one fan wrote.

"Orrrrr....and just hear me out. She's a seasoned actress and doesn't need it because she knows what to do. Hell, they both do," a different user suggested. Another opined, "Good to know there are still true adults in the industry."

"So some people in the comment section here have an issue with her choice. She said shooting a sex scene is awkward enough, can you let her be, God!!! And what's wrong with living in the past[?] [P]eople are so looking forward to the future they don't realize not everything new is good," another supporter added.

Mayer and Aniston dated from 2008 to 2009 after they met at an Oscars party. In an interview with Playboy in 2010, he seemingly portrayed Aniston as a technophobe.

"The brunt of her success came before TMZ and Twitter. I think she's still hoping it goes back to 1998. She saw my involvement in technology as [a] courting distraction. And I always said, 'These are the new rules,'" Mayer said, per CBS News.

In the same interview, Mayer clarified that he loved Aniston and "I'm very protective of Jen." It's been over a decade since they split, but the exes have remained good friends.

"Jen and John have a nice friendship. John has a deep admiration and respect for Jen. [...] Whenever they talk or are out together it's always friendly and nice. There is definitely no weirdness between them," an unnamed source told Us Weekly.
