ENTERTAINMENT NEWS - When asked if she ever thought her name would be permanently cemented in Hollywood, Courteney Cox said “not in a million years…”
From growing up in Alabama to starring in one of the world’s most loved shows, Friends, actress Courteney Cox never thought she would land her own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame!
Alas, she did, and she shared the special milestone in her career with those closest to her…
On Monday 27 Feb, the Friends cast member was honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and her Friends co-stars, Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow, reunited to witness Courteney on this career milestone.
The heartfelt speech Jennifer and Lisa delivered gave a 90’s nostalgic feeling.
“We’re very honored to be here today to speak on your behalf as your co-workers, your friends, your family, your sisters,” began Jennifer, before Lisa noted how Courteney has “been that way since we met almost 30 years ago.”
“Anyway, to be friends with Courteney is to be family with Courteney, and she is responsible for all of that. From the beginning of when we met her, she was immediately inclusive, warm, loving and interested in everything about you.”
Jennifer made a hilarious comment about how Courteney was “the only famous one” in the cast when they started on Friends in 1994. She then praised the Scream actress for her humility and how she “instilled into all of us to support each other, to love one another.”
“Those wise words have stayed with me,” Jennifer continued. “That really sent me on my path as a young woman to be able to have creative relationships that I’ve cherished to this very day.”
Lisa added: “Courteney was the most loving and supportive cast in, I’ll say, the history of television.”
Along with the fellow actresses, Cox’s daughter Coco Arquette, 18, was there to celebrate her mom’s achievements.
