Jennifer Aniston's Biography

Jennifer Aniston

Born: 11 February 1969
Birthplace: Sherman Oaks, California
Best known as: Rachel on the TV series Friends

When the sitcom Friends hit the airwaves in 1994, Jennifer Aniston, as the goofy and sexy Rachel, quickly became the show's breakout star. Her distinctively curvy haircut was soon a popular craze, and she was a favorite of tabloids and celebrity gossip columns throughout the show's long run (1994-2004). She married actor Brad Pitt in 2000 in a union of Hollywood superstars; they divorced in 2005 amid a flurry of rumors that Pitt had become interested in actress Angelina Jolie. (The rumors proved true.) Late that year Aniston began dating actor Vince Vaughn, her co-star in the film The Break-Up (released in 2006). Aniston's feature films include the cult favorite Office Space (1999), the animated film The Iron Giant (1999, with Vin Diesel), Rock Star (2000, with Mark Wahlberg), The Good Girl (2002, with Jake Gyllenhaal), Along Came Polly (2004, with Ben Stiller), the post-Graduate comedy Rumor Has It (2005, with Kevin Costner) and the ensemble chick flick Friends With Money (2006).
