Planet Gossip's Marc Malkin reports that Jennifer Aniston has been tapped to receive the Vanguard Award at this year's Los Angeles GLAAD Media Awards on Apr. 14. The award honors a member of the entertainment world who has been significant in promoting gay rights. Past recipients include Cher, Eric McCormack, Antonio Banderas, Liza Minnelli and Charlize Theron. 
"She never expected this," Aniston's tells Malkin. "But she's very honored and very happy about it." 
I'm not sure what Aniston has done to promote gay rights but once I find out, i will be happy to share it with you. But Malkin did compile a list of his favorite gay moments in Aniston's career: 

* In 1998, Aniston costarred in the movie The Object of My Affection as a straight woman who attempts to raise her child with her gay male roommate, played by Paul Rudd.
* Aniston and Winona Ryder enjoyed a girl-on-girl kiss in an episode during the seventh season of Friends, in which Ryder played a former sorority sister who had a longtime crush on Rachel.
* Not only did Aniston appear in Melissa Etheridge's video for the single, "I Want to Be in Love," the out lesbian rocker performed at Aniston's wedding to Brad Pitt.
* She was the first guest on Ellen DeGeneres' talk show.
* Most recently, she had a little kiss (nowhere near the wild makeout that some reports claimed would happen) with Courteney Cox on Dirt, in which Aniston played a rival editor to Cox's Lucy Spiller.
