Jennifer Aniston discusses Friends audition, her favorite red carpet gown, and who shares her bed

by - May 19, 2024

 Emmy winner Jennifer Aniston confessed that she 'hated auditioning' because she always 'got too nervous' especially when she walked into the one that changed her life - Rachel Greene in NBC sitcom Friends.

'Wasn't very good at it,' the 54-year-old San Fernando Valley native admitted to WSJ. Magazine on Tuesday.'I really wanted it really badly and I walked into the audition and there were so many girls, and I remember just thinking, "Oh boy." [I] just gave it my all and came home and I think it was about that day. It was by two o'clock that same day I got the job.'

'It would've destroyed us, I think, if someone was soaring financially,' the Pvolve adviser noted.

Jennifer has walked many, many red carpets but she considers the black Valentino couture gown featuring a thigh-high slit that she donned for the 2010 Golden Globe Awards to be her absolute favorite.

'It's beautiful. They've since remade it for me because I can't find the original,' Aniston beamed.

'Someone has it.'

When asked what lesson she wished she had learned early on in her career, The Morning Show producer-star scoffed: 'Not to give a s*** about what people think, because people love to think a lot of things about me.'

Fashion staples: When the hit show concluded in 2004 after 10 seasons, Jennifer kept only two items from the set - a pair of Rachel's red loafers and one of Monica Geller's (R, Courteney Cox) floral frocks - both of which she still wears to this day

Jennifer also admitted her biggest flaw was 'over salting things' and revealed she gives 'an incredible facial massage' and could've been an interior designer had she not chose acting.

'I can walk into a house and see what it needs,' Aniston boasted.

'And it's a fun process. Some people dread it. It can break up relationships. I thrive during that process.'

The Golden Globe winner reportedly earns an eye-popping $2M per episode to executive produce and reprise her role as The Morning Show co-host Alexandra 'Alex' Levy in the 10-episode third season of her hit Apple TV+ newsroom drama premiering September 13.
