We might've never had Ross and Rachel (as we know them)!
Jennifer Aniston was promoting Just Go With It on The Oprah Winfrey Show today and made a stunning revelation: The actress was offered a spot on Saturday Night Live by Lorne Michaels in the early 90s, but turned it down for Friends.
"They were like, 'You're so stupid,'" says Jen. "They thought I was making a huge mistake."
Thankfully, Friends was a huge success, eventually earning Aniston $1 million per episode.
"It did all right," the actress joked to Oprah. She also added: "This is a really wonderful thing we get to do. I'd say listen when people tell you how much joy you bring them."
After Friends, Aniston officially moved to the silver screen with flops like Derailed and Rumor Has It...

this woman is the biggest idiot in the world for comparing Mexican children to dogs. Anyone who has such regard for children has no place in this world.
i want to lick her
X17 hypocrate much? You called Jessica Alba under this post "a razzie nominee" But Jennifer Ansiton has 3 Razzie nomination in this year. You didn't call her a razzie nominee but you called Alba a razzie nominee for one nomination. What kind of hypocacty is that. Does everyone afraid the 15% per income huvane that much?
listen: AN ARTIST LIKE HER PERSON CARES FOR NOBODY PERSONALLY...........so this "Frinds" talking is just american crap!!
She's not funny! She can't act. Her movies are awful,
Whoever compared dogs to children? Are you sure you got brains to understand? You brangelina fans are really loonies. It's unbelievable how you guys can twist anything Jennifer Aniston says. Bullies and loonies!
I don't get it. SNL? Her? You've got to be kidding! She's not funny at all and her timing stinks. Never have figured out what people see in her.
OH, PLEEEZE!
OH, PLEEEZE! Note to 'the captain'. Please continue your English and spelling classes.
Also, Jen's a lezbo - nothing that there's anything wrong with it - just admit it.
This woman will say anything to promote her crappy movies....SNL hiring her...hahaha ya right
Jen has done some pretty funny skits on SNL. Angie lovers just need to stay off post about Jen. You just show what sad little people you are when posting your lies. You can say the same thing over and over--it will not make it true. It really kills you that Angie is BI doen't it? Bunch of loser Loons.
