One of the main reasons why actors from "Friends"It was difficult to find a job, - the strict attachment of stage images to the actors in the minds of the audience. However, this is good, because the actors managed to get used to the role and show very lively and believable characters. And for such a convincing performance, they were all nominated for"Emmy"and some have even won this award.
Everything. Except Courteney Cox. And this seems very strange, because in the series she played no worse than the rest of the actors. The actress herself says that she felt that at times the plot lacked depth, so the lack of a nomination for Courtney can be considered the fault of the writers.

And it's no wonder she's the first to cast."Friends"received the above award. Prior to that, she was twice nominated for"Emmy", but it was only in 1998 that the award found the performer of the role of Phoebe.
The actress has been nominated six times in the life of the series, but won the award only in 1998.

Hairstyle "Rachel"- the iconic hairstyle of the Friends era. The girls randomly chopped their curls to look like the famous waitress."Main coffee shop"from the series. Even ten years later, people show a photo of Rachel as a model. Looking at this haircut, one can only be amazed at how much time and effort the master spent to produce such a masterpiece. But in fact, it turned out to be the product of drug delirium.
Personal hairdresser Jennifer Aniston once admitted that he dabbled with marijuana while creating his hair. Chris McMillan has worked with the actress for a long time and still does her haircuts.

12. Courtney Cox got pregnant at the end of the series.
The entire series Monica - the character of Courteney Cox - was obsessed with having children. At the end of the series, she began to think about adopted children, because neither she nor Chandler could have children. Meanwhile, in reality, the actress during the filming of the last season "Friends"was pregnant!
Yes, during filming, she carried Coco, the daughter of David Arquette. And you would not have guessed about it, because the producers diligently hid her tummy. Unfortunately, some people made fun of her being overweight. But even with a couple of kilos that she gained during pregnancy, Courtney looked so adorable that we would not have guessed that she was pregnant!
11. And Lisa Kudrow too!
Well ... Actually, at the end of the series, Lisa Kudrow was not pregnant. Rather, when she played the surrogacy episode of Phoebe. The actress invented Phoebe's pregnancy to continue filming after announcing her real pregnancy. And the producers did not have to hide her tummy, as they later had to do with Courteney Cox.
In the series, Phoebe was pregnant with triplets, so she had to put a dummy on top of her real tummy, which made the actress look fuller than she really was. And because of this, Lisa Kudrow managed to win "Emmy"and continue filming while pregnant! We've always known that Phoebe is not good just because she is."
10. "Leprechaun" nearly forced Aniston to abandon her acting career
One of the first roles Jennifer Aniston was in the movie "Leprechaun". Even after the release of the film, no one knew her. In truth, she hated filming in this film so much that she thought to quit acting! Even years later, the girl admitted that she hates this tape, especially because he created an aura of an actress around her. niche cinema.
And it's good that she changed her mind. Can you imagine that the only big role of the famous Jennifer Aniston was Tory from "Leprechaun"? "Friends"turned her into a millionaire and radically changed her life. Besides, where would the brand be SmartWater without her millions of investments? That is, of course, they would have found another famous star, but without a doubt, the world would be different if someone else played Rachel.
9. Courtney Cox was a rebel
Monica was the main goodie of the series: she was obsessed with cleanliness, obsessed with organizing everything and everyone, and felt guilty if she did anything wrong. But in life, the actress was a rebel. She came from a wealthy family and in childhood she was not overshadowed by anything. True, Courtney's parents later divorced, which affected her disastrously. True, the mother later remarried, but the daughter at first did not really love her stepfather.
With age, Courtney again felt like a part of the family, and the relationship with the new father went smoothly. And yet, it is very difficult to imagine that the quiet and calm Monica even hinted at a riot. And then she started a modeling career and appeared in many teen magazines and even in advertisements for tampons! Who knew she had such an interesting past?
8. Lisa Kudrow was a biologist before filming.
If you think Courteney Cox's biography is very strange, then you will be shocked if you find out what happened to Lisa Kudrow! She graduated from college in New York with a degree in psychobiology. She had a passion for natural science, so Lisa was looking for a career in biological research. And it all ended with the fact that she moved to New York, where she met an acquaintance of her brother, John Lovitz.
John literally convinced Lisa to try as an actress, as if he saw her talent before herself. Thus, she changed her priorities and began to strive for creative improvisation. This led her to the famous TV presenter Conan O'Brien and her first major role in the series "Crazy about you"and then success awaited her in"Friends"and everything else. And it seems to me, if not for John Lovitz, the role of wild and frivolous Phoebe would have had to be played by someone completely different.
7. Jennifer Aniston had to lose weight for the role of Rachel
Before Jennifer Aniston was cast as Rachel, she was asked to play Monica! Yes, it would be crazy, and Jennifer understood this, so by hook or by crook she convinced the producers that Rachel was closer to her in spirit. The producers agreed, but with one condition - the girl must lose 13.5 kg.
Naturally, she did it - otherwise how did she get the role of Rachel? However, one thought is terrifying that young Jennifer Aniston could have been turned down for the role due to her small size! The whole series she looked great and still amazes with her beauty, so we can say with confidence that because of those 13.5 kg we would not love her less. And how can you refuse her?
6. Courtney Cox was jealous of Jennifer's haircut
Yes, we already talked about the boom caused by the hairstyle "Rachel"But the story would be incomplete, if not to say that Courtney Cox was very jealous of her partner on the set. And although they had one stylist for two, Courtney never had such iconic hairstyles. Even if it did not exist."Rachel", the eponymous character had enough beloved and regularly copied hairstyles. But Monica, unfortunately, did not enjoy such popular love.
Courteney Cox is still close friends with Jennifer Aniston, so jealousy did not lead to anything serious. And yet, she admits, it hurts to see that a partner in the shop is more popular only because of his beautiful eyes. Rather, hairstyles. Maybe she just didn't show up with the master during the trip? Or is it because Jennifer Aniston is so captivating that we would love her with any haircut?
5. Lisa Kudrow is allergic to singing
One of the things that Phoebe has done well is a career as a bard. Who did not hum songs "Bad cat"? She always writes different sands and performs them in a coffee shop. And although many other characters spoke badly about her work, the audience was crazy about these concerts. And imagine, the performer of the role of a hippie bard just hates to sing!"
"Hey! - you say. - For someone with a disgust for music, she looks too pleased.". But the truth is that the girl does not like to sing in public. The actress admitted that she does it only to make people laugh. Isn't it nice to do an unloved thing for the delight of fans? Well, it worked for her for benefit for a long time ... I hope she won't stop it soon!

Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt were the most charming Hollywood couple of their time. And hearing the recent news about Pitt's divorce from Jolie, you involuntarily wonder if Jennifer and Brad can revive their relationship ... But let's return to the past. Digging a little deeper, we found out that the couple met on a blind date. Can you imagine Hollywood's sexiest actor of his day going on a date where he has no idea of his partner until he meets him?
It is clear that when they met in 1998, they should have already heard a lot about each other. The meeting was arranged by the agents of the stars, who did not tell anything in advance. It seems a little strange that Brad did not personally ask the actress to date, but in the end they fell in love. At least until Angelina appeared in Brad's life ...

It's just a penny compared to last season."Friends"- then she made a million dollars per episode! In any case, the effect of the video is comparable to a bomb explosion; mainly because of people's love for Springsteen, but people were wondering what kind of girl was dancing with him. Then in life the actress had a couple of rather inconspicuous roles that led her to love and worldwide fame in "Friends".
2. Lisa Kudrow took care of herself before the wedding
