In a recent interview with Anthony Anderson as guest host on Jimmy Kimmel Live, former Friends star Lisa Kudrow shared a heartwarming story involving Sandra Bullock. The two actresses were chatting at a party when Bullock accidentally referred to Kudrow as her iconic character, Phoebe. Kudrow couldn’t help but gush about the moment, recalling Bullock’s embarrassed reaction when she realized her slip-up.
But the nostalgia didn’t stop there. Kudrow also reminisced about a poignant moment after Friends wrapped up its successful 10-year run in 2004. She found herself tearing up in the kitchen, only for her 5-year-old son to innocently ask why. To Kudrow’s surprise, her son didn’t even know the show was called Friends – he simply knew his mom worked on a show where she could “see her friends” by picking up the phone.
It’s touching moments like these that remind us of the lasting impact Friends had on its audience. And with stars like Kudrow still sharing stories from their time on the beloved series, it’s clear that the show’s legacy continues to live on.
