Friend Spotlight: Courteney Cox Arquette
As we know, Jen’s friendships are very important to her, and her friendship with Courteney is famously so. They met in 1994, at the beginning of Friends, and have been inseparable ever since. Given that their early experience with sudden megastardom was shared, it is perhaps not surprising that they understand each other so well. In many ways, they complement each other in that each posesses traits that the other doesn’t. Jen has said, “Courteney’s a neat freak. And thank God, because my dressing room would be a mess if it wasn’t for her!”. Similarly, Courteney has said of Jen, “I was so jealous when I went to her house once and she was actually watching the sunset. She has a beautiful rose garden, and she takes things in. I’m too busy puttering and moving around. She has an amazing love of life.” However, the two women are incredibly similar in other ways. Jen has said of Couteney, “Courteney’s not stand-offish, she’s not threatened by women, and she doesn’t have to throw her womanliness all over you to show what kind of woman she is.” That could very easily be said of Jen herself.
It has been nearly 3 years since Friends ended, but their friendship remains as strong as ever. And on March 27, we will have the joy of watching them together onscreen once again, when Jen guest-stars as tabloid editor Tina Harrod on Courteney’s show Dirt. It has been reported that they share a kiss onscreen, although more of a peck than the full-on makeout session reported by gossips. Nevertheless, it’s perhaps fitting that Jen once said, “If we were lesbians, we would marry each other.” [Edited to clarify: They are not actually lesbians, Jen just plays one on Dirt]
