Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon Recreate Their Iconic Scene in Friends
In case you forgot Reese Witherspoon guest-starred on the ’90s sitcom
The hit ’90s sitcom Friends is full of iconic lines. There’s Joey’s flirtatious, “How you doin’?” and Phoebe’s honest, “Oh, I wish I could, but I don’t want to.” And who could forget Monica’s bold, “SEVEN. SEVEN. SEVEN.”
True fans will take care to remember that Reese Witherspoon, who made a brief guest appearance as Rachel Green’s younger sister Jill in Season 6, also delivered some of the show’s most memorable lines. On Instagram today, Witherspoon posted a video of her and Aniston reenacting one of those iconic Friends moments during an interview with Access Online.
Upon being shown a photo of the duo on set, Aniston asked her costar, “Is this where you say the line you love so much?”
“We could say the line,” Witherspoon affirmed. “Do you remember your line?”
Aniston did not. Witherspoon whispered Aniston’s line in her ear, and, consequently, the two were ready to slip into their old Friends characters once more.
“You can’t have Ross,” Aniston said, re-embodying Friends character Rachel Green, who famously dated Ross.
“Can’t have?” Witherspoon responded, effortlessly sliding back into Jill’s ostentatious demeanor. “Can’t have? The only thing I can’t have is dairy.” And scene.

Witherspoon previously spoke about her friendship with Aniston while being interviewed by Natalie Portman for Harper’s BAZAAR’s Daring issue.
“We met on the set of Friends; I played her sister. I was 23 years old and had just had a baby,” our November cover star said. “I was nursing Ava on set, and Jen just kept going, ‘You have a baby?’ I was like, ‘I know, it’s weird.’ And I remember her being like, ‘Where are you going?’ And I was like, ‘I’m pumping!'”
