Lisa Kudrow says Sandra Bullock once accidentally called her by ‘Friends’ character name

Los Angeles, Jul 18 (PTI) Actor Lisa Kudrow says colleague Sandra Bullock once confused her with her “Friends” alter ego Phoebe Buffay.

Bullock, known for “Miss Congeniality” films, “The Proposal”, and “Two Weeks Notice”, is an ardent fan of the iconic NBC TV series which ran for 10 seasons between 1994 to 2004.

In a recent interview with “Jimmy Kimmel Live” guest host Anthony Anderson, Kudrow recalled an incident in which Bullock accidently addressed her as Phoebe, the oddball of the group of six friends.

“I just love this. I was at a big party and I was talking to Sandra Bullock — name-dropping, I have to, but it’s true. And we were talking, and she was like, ‘Well, I guess you’ll just have to talk to yourself, Phoebe,’ about something, and she called me ‘Phoebe’,” she said.

Kudrow said Bullock noticed her gaffe and quickly “caught herself, she went ‘What’d I just do?'”

“Friends”, also starring Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry, and Matt LeBlanc, followed six friends navigating love, career and life in New York City.
