Ellen’s longtime friend, Jennifer Aniston, made a stunning appearance as a guest host on the show, marking a remarkable 17 years since she was first welcomed as a guest by Ellen. Aniston stepped in for Ellen on Friday, showcasing her charm and wit while jokingly revealing some juicy “deep, dark secrets” about the daytime talk show host. Ellen, apparently, had conveniently claimed she needed to visit the DMV, giving Aniston the perfect opportunity to take over the show and entertain the audience.
Introducing Jen: Jennifer Aniston appeared absolutely stunning while stepping in as a guest host for Ellen DeGeneres on her popular daytime talk show last Friday.
Aniston pointed out that The Ellen DeGeneres Show is recorded at the Warner Bros. studio in Burbank, where she spent a lot of time working while filming Friends from 1994 to 2004.
“She just tosses pennies into the trash. Right in front of everyone,” Jen laughed, teasing Ellen about her impressive wealth. “Those good luck pennies!”
Another funny moment occurred when Aniston mentioned, “I can’t even step into her dressing room because she’s lighting one of those Gwyneth Paltrow candles!”
After a few more light-hearted confessions, the Cake actress delved into the past and shared a true ‘secret’ – a little-known fact about her and Ellen: “I was actually Ellen’s very first guest on this show!”
She was referring to her appearance on September 8, 2003, which happened to be the debut episode of Ellen’s now long-running, Emmy Award-winning talk show.
“I was actually the debut guest on Ellen’s show!” Jen said as she started to take a trip down memory lane, revealing a fun fact about her relationship with Ellen that many people may not know.
