Nowadays, when you have an opinion about something, you take to social media, and that’s exactly what people have done after hearing Jennifer Aniston’s comments (and defense) over some controversial jokes in various episodes of “Friends.” While some people agreed with the star that you just can’t joke like you used to, asking questions on Twitter like, “Shouldn’t comedy be funny?!” and others blaming the “woke culture” for making everyone so “sensitive,” the overwhelming majority slammed Aniston over the interview. Many people didn’t think it was right for Aniston to say it was okay to joke about someone being a bigot. Some compared the show to “Living Single,” even suggesting that “Friends” copied off the show, which had a primarily Black cast. “I don’t think I’ve ever willingly watched an episode of Friends. And that’s not because it’s offensive it’s because it’s a boring and unseasoned version of Living Single,” one person commented on Pop Base’s tweet. “Didn’t Monica wear braids in one episode and made fun of it? Yeah. It’s offensive then, still offensive now,” another pointed out.

This is not the first time people have slammed Aniston for comments she made during interviews. In 2022, the star spoke with Variety and claimed that people like Paris Hilton got famous for “basically doing nothing.” Well, some said Aniston was the pot calling the kettle black because she was a “nepotism baby” born to famous parents Nancy Dow and John Aniston.
