The Secret Behind the Friends Cast’s Pay Negotiations
In a conversation about her time on Friends, Aniston revealed that the cast worked together to ensure they all received equal pay. By the end of the show, the stars were earning $1 million per episode, thanks to their collective bargaining efforts. “It would’ve destroyed us if someone was soaring financially,” she said, reflecting on how important teamwork was.

Divorce Recovery Took Two Years for Aniston
After her high-profile divorce from Brad Pitt, Aniston admits that she took time to heal before jumping into work again. “There was a real shift in my life… coming out from under the rubble of that,” she shared. Her career only flourished after she changed managers in 2007 and found new purpose in her professional life.

Adam Sandler’s Sweet Tradition
Aniston revealed that every Mother’s Day, her good friend and co-star Adam Sandler, along with his wife Jackie, sends her flowers. This thoughtful gesture comes amid Aniston’s past struggles with fertility, which she has discussed openly in previous interviews.

Aniston Talks About Her Stance on Cancel Culture
“I’m so over cancel culture,” Aniston boldly declared, questioning whether redemption is still possible. This comment has sparked some controversy, particularly in light of her previous criticism of Jamie Foxx’s social media posts.

Harvey Weinstein: A Relationship Marked by Wary Respect
While Aniston never had any negative personal experiences with Harvey Weinstein, she admitted to feeling uncomfortable around him. “He’s not a guy you’re like, ‘I can’t wait to hang out with him,’” she said, recalling how she once made sure someone stayed with her when he visited her on set.

Psychic Predictions and Brad Pitt
Aniston spoke about a psychic who once predicted she would meet a man who would fit Brad Pitt’s description. She noted how she embraces her “crunchy side,” making space for a more spiritual part of her life.

Relationships Remain a Challenge
Despite her success in her career, Aniston acknowledged that navigating relationships can be difficult. “It’s just about not being afraid to say what you need and what you want,” she said, revealing that this continues to be a challenge for her.

The Salmon-Sperm Facial Fad
When asked about her beauty regime, Aniston disclosed that she once tried salmon-sperm facials. While she was unsure of their effectiveness, she firmly believes in the benefits of weekly peptide injections, which she describes as the “future” of skincare.

Olives and European Quirks
A particularly funny revelation was Aniston’s insistence on having pimento-stuffed olives in her martinis. After a mishap with an unwanted kalamata olive, she now carries her own pimentos with her when traveling in Europe.

Crystals and Connection to Her Late Father
In a deeply personal moment, Aniston shared how she uses crystals to feel close to her late father, who passed away in 2022. She placed a crystal in his pocket during his funeral and now plans to use a piece of it as an amulet, demonstrating her belief in the power of these objects.
