Jennifer Aniston graces the cover of ELLE magazine’s September 2009 issue.  While the cover shot shows the actress clothed in a leather bustier, another black and white photo shows Aniston topless underneath an open front jacket.

The accompanying article talks about her resilience, humor, and honesty.  She has long ago accepted the fact that her less than successful love life has earned her a “lonely girl” image.  The 40-year-old acknowledges that it is indeed how she is perceived and she is ok with that.

Check out more photos from the shoot below.  More photos here and here.
