actress jennifer aniston has found a
lifetime friend
in daytime's favorite talk show host
ellen degeneres
on a 2018 episode of her show degeneres
treated fans to a montage featuring the
two entertainers sharing more than a few
warm hugs over the years the actress and
comedian first publicly shared their
friendship with the world at the
premiere of aniston's 1998 film
the object of my affection since then
both women have professed their love and
support for one another
time and time again at the variety power
of women luncheon in october 2019
degeneres said i am one of jennifer
aniston's best friends
i'm her nearest dearest most favorite
friend
aniston later joked ellen we gotta keep
the best friend stuff kind of on the dl
okay
because a lot of my best friends are
here we know this friendship has been
decades in the making
but what exactly is it like inside this
a-list mutual appreciation society
let's take a closer look the ellen
degeneres show
made its debut on september 8 2003
launching a talk show that has ruled
daytime television for nearly two
decades
ellen's first guest was none other than
you guessed it
a certain actress by the name of
jennifer aniston
they joked about aniston's forbes
ranking and her new los
angeles home at one point anniston gave
degeneres a gift that certainly
befitting of a new talk show host
a welcome mat this would be the first of
aniston's many
many many appearances on the ellen
degeneres show
but make no mistake aniston and
degeneres friendship isn't just for the
cameras
they're reportedly the kind of friends
who text one another when in need of a
belt
allegedly they'll even pop up to
surprise one another at hair
appointments
what's more degeneres helps aniston
celebrate her birthday
big time are you gonna like blow it out
what are you gonna do are you gonna
well apparently ellen's throwing me in
my birthday party so
yeah she is and if reports can be
believed degeneres has reportedly called
aniston a few times to share advice on
getting through quarantine
the two stars reportedly even shared a
kiss on the ellen degeneres show
speaking fondly of degeneres aniston
later remarked
there's hollywood friends and hollywood
friends they kind of like do that air
kiss thing
and then when you're real friends you
you know you do that
that's what real friends do aniston even
publicly
settled the debate as to whether
witherspoon or degeneres was the closer
friend
she jokingly declared that the talk show
host comes out on top
all joking aside these celebs are quite
close
after all degeneres was reportedly the
first friend to check up on aniston
after her plane to mexico made an
emergency landing in 2019.
in any great friendship secrets are kept
and trust is tantamount
well jennifer aniston was willing to
reveal a few of ellen degeneres's
so-called
deep dark secrets when she took over
hosting duties for the ellen degeneres
show
in january 2020 of course the whole
thing was just a shtick so don't look
for too much juicy gossip here
at one point the actress joked since we
are real friends i thought that
you know since she's not here i'm going
to share some dirt on ellen
people think that she buys and sells
houses because she loves real estate
no it's not true it's because she's on
the run from the law
her real name it's not ellen it's sherry
sherry linguine
priceless stuff right aniston went on to
joke that degeneres throws away pennies
and burns gwyneth paltrow candles in her
dressing room
what's more aniston also quipped that
degeneres once voiced an animated adult
film called
grinding nemo don't tell her i told you
any of that because i really would do
anything for her
again that's some bona fide body quaking
hilarity
right well as it turns out jennifer
aniston has admired ellen degeneres for
a long time
even before they really got to know one
another opening up about the first time
she met degeneres at some birthday party
or another aniston once said
i remember being absolutely in all of
you you hit my funny button like nobody
else
it's true and my heart the stars really
hit it off at aniston's 27th birthday
party when degeneres crashed the party
at the buffalo club
meanwhile aniston once quipped on the
ellen show chances are your favorite
grocery has a section of gift cards
called the gift card mall
they have everything from visa to best
buy to nordstroms and it's where i get
ellen's birthday gift
every year because she only likes two
things expensive art and the olive
garden
if you ask us this is one friendship
that will definitely withstand the test
of time
