Darvanga – February 8, 2025: Hold up—Jennifer Aniston is finally on TikTok! And in the most Jennifer Aniston way imaginable, she broke her debut by collaborating with none other than Selena Gomez to recreate an iconic Friends scene. If you grew up watching the series (or binge-watched it on repeat like the rest of us), you know this is a big deal.
A Nostalgic Stroll Down Memory Lane
Imagine scrolling through TikTok, minding your business, and suddenly—boom!—there’s Jennifer Aniston, casually lip-syncing a Friends scene with Selena Gomez. The internet practically broke.
In the video, Aniston falls right into character as Rachel Green, talking with the same charm that made Friends a global phenomenon. And the cherry on top? Selena Gomez showing up and joining in with full fangirl enthusiasm. See how much she’s relishing every second of it.
For longtime Friends fanatics, it was gold, and for newer audiences who perhaps hadn’t seen it when it initially premiered? Let’s at least say, at least, that they’re getting a lesson in sit-com royalty.
Jennifer Aniston Goes Viral On TikTok—and Fans Have Lost It
Unlike most Hollywood actresses, Aniston has been fairly selective when it comes to social media. While she’s a pro at Instagram, TikTok seemed a little out of her league. But, it seems, if anyone could make her go for it, it’d be Selena Gomez.
And what a beginning it was! In a span of a matter of hours, the clip amassed a record count of millions of views, sending followers into a full-blown state of nostalgia. Comment sections filled with messages such as, “OMG, my childhood is reborn!” and “This is the TikTok moment I never even knew I needed!”
Even other Hollywood stars couldn’t resist fangirling. Courteney Cox, Reese Witherspoon, and an entire cohort of Hollywood actresses joined in, reblogging the clip and hyping for Aniston’s big premiere.
Selena Gomez: Complete Friends Fangirl
Now, let’s talk about Selena for a bit.
If you’re a Friends fan, then you probably know that Gomez is a big fan of the show. She’s mentioned it in interviews, posted about it in social posts, and even admitted to watching repeats regularly.
So, can one even imagine what it must have been for her to actually have a scene with Jennifer Aniston? She was actually in a state of high spirits, and in all fairness, it actually added to the whole video even more.
Fans Are Requesting a Sequel
The second that clip reached cyberspace, everyone shared one burning question: Is this just the beginning? Fans are already clamoring for more Friends-themed content for TikTok—like a Monica and Rachel showdown with Courteney Cox, for instance, or a full-fledged reunion with the whole crew? (We can dream, can’t we?)
Even if it happened only once, it’s safe to say that Jennifer Aniston’s maiden trip onto TikTok was everything. She demonstrated, yet again, why Friends is ageless, why Rachel Green will forever and a day be a legend, and why the web can simply not have enough of her.
