She was not told that her life would turn out this way by anyone! Courteney Cox couldn’t resist trying out the viral Friends face filters and imitating her costars — even though the images created by the app were more like an off-brand version of the cast.
“Apparently, there’s a new FriendsFace app. Let’s check it out,” the Shining ValeStar, 57, began the video with the filter. As Cox played around with the app, each cast member’s face morphed with her own — and the actress, who portrayed Monica on the NBC sitcom, was quick to call out the striking dissimilarities.
The Cougar Town alum first “turned into” David SchwimmerRoss was played by, who also appeared on the hit TV show. “Hi,” Cox said, attempting to imitate the character’s low voice. “Really? I don’t look anything like Schwimmer.”
Then she was transformed into Matt LeBlanc(Joey), quoting the most famous line of his. “Hi! How you doin’?” the actress nodded to the camera, noticing how her own jewelry enhanced the impersonation: “Oh, looks good with an earring. Or two.”
Once Cox got into the girls’ filters, however, the characters became hard to define.
“Oh hello,” she admired herself in the video. The filter showed her with ice-blue eyes, arched eyebrows, and a merlot lipstick. ”Who is that? Is Monica that Monica? Not sure. Rachel? I have no idea.”
TheScream star added: “This is one of the worst apps I’ve ever seen, but OK.”
Cox scoured the entire cast, including her onscreen husband. Matthew Perry. “Chandler has rosacea,” she marked, commenting on the rosy red cheeks from the filter. “Oh, Chandler.”
After gushing on castmate Lisa KudrowThe native of Alabama tried to figure out which filter was supposed be her. She eliminated that one filter couldn’t be Rachel because Jennifer Aniston has “a gorgeous mouth” — the filter did not — so Cox concluded it must be her.
“I feel terrible about myself,” she joked. “Bye!”
While the DirtActress is still close to her Friends castmates and reunited with them on the set for last year’s HBO Max reunion, Cox admitted last month that she doesn’t remember a lot from filming.
“I should’ve watched all 10 seasons because when I did the reunion and was asked questions, I was like, ‘I don’t remember being there,’” she quipped on the TodayShow in March “I don’t remember filming so many episodes.”
She blamed her “bad memory” for the lack of recollection and explained on Today that she wished the cast “spen[t] more time taking pictures” while filming the show.
“I see it on TV sometimes and I stop and go, ‘Oh my God, I don’t remember this at all,” Cox said. “But it’s so funny.”
