Famous sitcom ‘Friends’ costars reunited as Courteney Cox received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The 58-year-old actress was officially immortalized along the iconic boulevard with a newly-minted star, making her the 2,750th person to be bestowed with the honour. She was joined by her former Friends costars Lisa Kudrow and Jennifer Aniston.
Cox talking to the media quoted her former costars’ speech about her during the ceremony felt ‘great’, adding, “They’re such wonderful friends of mine and they’re family to me, so it felt really comfortable… they’re my sisters.”
During her own speech, Cox thanked Aniston, Kudrow, and Laura Dern — who also spoke at the event — for their support over the years.
“I love you all so much and it’s so nice that you came out and showed up for me in public the way you do so often in private,” she shared.
During their joint speech, Aniston and Kudrow paid tribute to their longtime friend and former costar. “We’re very honored to be here today to speak on your behalf as your co-workers, your friends, and your family, your sisters,” Aniston said. “And that’s happened since we’ve known you for a very long time.”
“It’s been that way since we met almost 30 years ago,” Kudrow added as Aniston joked, “No, not 30 years ago. That’s a typo.” “To be friends with Courteney is to be family with Courteney,” Aniston shared. “She is responsible for all of that. From the beginning of when we met her, she was immediately inclusive, warm, loving, interested in everything about you.”

The pair concluded their speech with a message for Cox.“Courteney, we just want to say that we are deeply, deeply proud to know you. You are the definition of a truly beautiful, talented, and, what’s most important, a truly good and decent human being… Thank you for enriching our lives personally,” Kudrow said.
The trio previously reunited with their other Friends costars, Matthew Perry, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer, for the HBO Max reunion special last May. The group starred in the popular sitcom during the 90s.
