Lisa Kudrow admitted she had trouble accepting herself while filming friends

  • She said she struggled to accept herself and her body until the show ended.
  • The 59-year-old later realized, It’s OK. This is just what I look like.
  • The actress played Rachel Green, Mocica Geller and Phoebe Buffay for 10 seasons.

Lisa Kudrow, who starred alongside Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox in the classic comedy series Friends, admitted that she battled to accept herself and her figure while filming the show.

The Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion actor talked about feeling “self-conscious” because costumes used to look better on her female co-stars in an interview with Podcrushed.

The 59-year-old actor stated on the programme, “I didn’t realise I don’t look like I thought I looked until Friends.”

“It was just seeing Courtney and Jennifer dressed, as well as myself. They were knowledgeable about tailoring and could consult the costume designer on where to take something in, she continued.

Then, Kudrow remarked, “I would realise it’s not only about tailoring.” “I’m not trying to claim that I was obese. I simply had no concept what my actual physical shape was.

When the actor was in her 40s, she started to embrace her body as it was and said, “It’s OK. I look just like this.

The single mother continued by saying that the pressure to appear a specific way in Hollywood is all “in your head.”

She said, “You’re doing that to yourself. “Being Tom Cruise or as well-known as Tom Cruise is not necessary. It was either Julia Roberts or Meg Ryan for me at the time. I’m not truly being asked to do that.

For ten seasons, from 1994 to 2004, the trio portrayed the legendary roles of Rachel Green, Mocica Geller, and Phoebe Buffay on NBC’s well-known comedic sitcom.

Nearly 20 years after the show’s finale, the stars are still close friends.
