Jennifer Aniston Reveals the Unexpected Thing Lisa Kudrow Struggled With on Friends

Jennifer Aniston is taking a look back at her time on Friends, revealing what the cast loved — and didn’t love — during their time on the show.

In an interview with Abbott Elementary’s Quinta Brunson for Variety’s Actors on Actors series, Aniston, 55, reflected on how quickly 30 years have passed since Friends first aired in 1994. She said she can still vividly remember the day the show premiered.

“Matthew Perry and I were having lunch somewhere, and we knew Lisa [Kudrow] was getting her hair colored,” Aniston recalled. “So we ran into the hair salon, and I snuck up — she was in the sink — and I took the nozzle from the guy that was supposed to be doing it and just started washing her hair.”

She continued: “It definitely flew out of control, and that was unfortunate. But the excitement we had, it feels like yesterday.”

Thinking about her days filming the show brought back memories that made Aniston emotional. At one point, the Murder Mystery actress began to cry when asked how it feels to watch Friends now.

“I’m okay,” she said, wiping tears from her face. “It’s happy tears.”

Another more lighthearted memory Aniston shared was the cast’s reaction to having a live audience. While she didn’t mind it, she revealed that one of her costars wasn’t a fan.

“Lisa Kudrow, by the way, hated when the audience laughed,” Aniston admitted,

“She did?” Brunson, 34, replied, surprised.

“She’d be like, ‘I’m not done! It’s not that funny!’” Aniston joked.

Brunson told Aniston that the rhythm of the script in Friends was part of what made it so funny. Still, she said she doesn’t foresee herself filming with multiple cameras, which is required to film with a live audience.
