This must be the 3rd or 4th time i am watching & re-watching the sitcom FRIENDS again. I just nvr get sick of it. No idea why. Mebbe i hv goldfish memory.
I think folks who love FRIENDS like i do identify wif the characters, so much so dat we wud most likely not take notice of the stars should it not be for the sitcom. Credits to their own convincing acting aside, tink all of dem reli owe their fancy cars & enormous mansions to the show manz.
And even tho i noe wad's gonna happen next oredi, it's still reali addictive, i kid u not. The jokes still make mi laff & the heartaches still gets mi tearing. Crying watching FRIENDS?? U'll tink i'm nuts, but nooo...i still can't stand watching Rachel & Ross break up. Same scenes, same reactions.
I even remember, when i was still a stinkin' student mugging for exams, one episode of FRIENDS was my reward for completing a chapter. Ok fine, sometimes i watch a few. It was reli something to look forward to u noe...like a beam of light at the end of the tunnel. Haha.
Well, as much as we would like to think that Matt Le Blanc IS Joey in real life & Lisa Kudrow IS as quirky as Phoebe in reality, it's not all fairy-taley for the stars off show.
Sometimes I wonder if i have papparazi blood in my body...credits & nominations aside, tabloids rule! Muahaha!
I did a quick search on them on the net & read up a lil' on each of dem, well, here's wad i found interesting. (Dis is wad happens when u've got too much free time on ur hand)
Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe Buffay
Look at her in the past! This must be taken during the initial seasons.
Thank goodness for the invention of cosmetics & rebonding...
Different eh? See...? The magic of make-up & hair!
And i tink she looks reli gorgeous here:
Can u belive she's like...43 or so this year?!?! And a mother of how many i dunch noe la..but if she still looks like this at 43, she shall deserve a shrine erected at the top of Beverly Hills in her name, for women all over the world to come worship her... & perhaps lotsa beauty products to endorse.
Matt Le Blanc as Joey Tribbiani
He's the only one who did an extension- JOEY after the last season of FRIENDS concluded. Good looking chap & great actor. 
Now, who can blame us if everybody thinks he's reali a goofball like his character Joey in real life?!
He & ex-wife, Melissa McKnight. Unfortunately they just finalized their divorce this year & ended their almost 3 years of marriage. That's long enuff for Hollywood i guess.
David Schwimmer as Ross Gellar
He's one funny character to watch manz. The most educated & apparently the highest achiever of the bunch in the show, but also the loser brother of Monica Gellar.
Did u noe that he turned down Will Smith's part in Men in Black?
I caught the Reunion show which gathered all the FRIENDS characters again to reminisce their journey together but he's quite a far-fetched figure in real from Ross. He's more of the serious sort who rarely smiles, just like Stephen Chow.
Somehow U tend to think dey r equally silly off & on-camera but well, evidently not.
Read he has just recently won a defamation lawsuit against former charity fundraiser Aaron Tonken for $400K. I like to think it's in Ruppiah or something, otherwise, dat's another rich, rich man for u.
Courtney Cox as Monica Gellar
I always think she resembles Demi Moore, ya think??
Minus the hair, i tink dis looks like Demi when she was in Ghost.
Well, she's quite pretty in her own rights but u wud think that somebody like her will have all the confidence in the world but she was noted saying she is struggling wif ageing & tries not to have too many mirrors around. Bah! Hollywood disease.
Well, at least apart from Lisa Kudrow, she is still hitched to David Arquette. But for long more, who noes?
Jennifer Aniston as Rachel Green
The most famous one of the lot i would think.
She has the highest profile, thanks to Brad Pitt no less, and the most obvious fashion-icon amongst them & i tink she sorta contributed to the rebonding trend too.
But before that, here's Jennifer with curls:
And here's her again wif her legendary straight, shiny locks:
Can u believe it when she said she isn't comfortable with her own physical appearance?!?!
Siao char bors.
And can u believe dat her mum actly made money out of spilling some beans to the press on her famous daughter & even wrote a book about it to earn more big bucks. Dey fell out bcoz of dis & oni got their estranged relationship back on tracks recently after closing in to a decade.
And before the bubble of the get-together of Prom King & Queen burst, here's how pretty dey looked like together:
Too bad for Brad, i tink Jen's quite a catch. Better than cynical-looking Lara Croft i vote.
Lucky for Vince Vaughn, Jen's wif him now. Vince is the chap who co-starred The Break-Up along wif her, who also played the good guy in Dodgeball who saved the day & if u still don't noe who the hell, he's dat curly-haired mafia in Starsky & Hutch.
If u still, still has no idea, go google his name for his face. Gah.
Matthew Perry as Chandler Bing
It was hilarious when dey featured Chandler & Ross back in High School, looking reli dorky but dey tot it was damn cool. Ross had a moustache & dat curly black hair ala Ronald McDonalds & Chandler had dat hairdo ala Felix the Cat.
Again, hairdo makes such a big diff:
One thing i dun get is dat dey constantly featured Chandler as a loser who nvr gets the babes but i think he's quite charming! And i like his victory dance which is totally so off. And his sarcasm. Hahaha. Could u BE any dumber?!
Unfortunately for him in real life, while playing the character, he was admitted into a drug rehab for some 2 yrs or so for chemical dependency on painkillers & alcohol. And read he also had some weight problems too. Sheesh.
Look! Look! Courtney Cox reli looks like Demi Moore wif her long hair wad!! No????
Anyway, drugs problems, divorces & lawsuits aside, FRIENDS is still the best sitcom ever.
Viva la FRIENDS! :)
