“Being friends with her Courteney it’s like you’re her family. She is responsible for everything. From the beginning of the “Friends” series, she was tender, interested in everything about you. We love you”. With these words, Jennifer Aniston showed that there are friendships in Hollywood. Contrary to what Marlon Brando believed that “most successful people in Hollywood are failures as people”.

With more than $100 million in just 10 days, “Scream” has become the highest-grossing film since its release in 1996. At the time, the Courteney Cox she was already one of the most popular actresses in America thanks to her role as Monica Geller in the series ‘Friends’.

In the 1980s, Cox worked as a model and advertiser before landing a recurring role on Family Ties alongside Michael J. Fox.

Her start was so difficult that a few days before taking this job, she was ready to return to Birmingham, her hometown, to work with her father, selling swimming pools, due to a dire lack of money.

Today, her net worth is estimated at $150 million, thanks not only to her work on “Friends,” but also to her famous house-selling skills. “I’m from Birmingham, Alabama … Having a star on the Walk of Fame is not something you think would be a possibility,” said actress-turned-journalist Gale Weathers to act as liaison link between the original “Scream” cast and a younger generation led by the likes of Jenna Ortega.

Just a few years ago, before the impact of the recent horror film and the reunion of “Friends” renewed interest in Cox, this star on the Walk of Fame seemed much more distant.

Her career seemed to be at a standstill after the end of ‘Cougar Town’, a series where she played a divorced woman. She herself has admitted that she shifted the focus of her career towards business and her personal life.

During that time, Courteney Cox made headlines just because of her plastic surgery. The pressure to look younger and the inherent ageism of the entertainment industry took a toll on her, as she later admitted. “There was a time in my life when I thought, ‘Oh no, I’m changing, I look older.’ So I spent years chasing the illusion of youth,” he told the Times, not without regrets. “I didn’t realize I was crazy about it. One day I realized that I look very strange with all these injections and everything I did to my face. I had to stop.” And it stopped…

The actress has also been in the news in recent weeks due to the public introduction of her only daughter, Coco, whose godmother is Jennifer Aniston. 18-year-old Coco is still focusing on her studies, although she’s already taken her first steps into the world of acting and looks like she’s well on her way to becoming an official nepo baby.

We first saw evidence of Coco’s talent in some videos shot during Cox’s famous parties. Stars such as Elton John, Ellen DeGeneres and Ed Sheeran (who gifts her a sex mask every time she lets him stay at her house when he travels to the United States) have visited her Malibu mansion. Public interest in her parties soared this year after Prince Harry revealed in his memoir Spare that he had consumed hallucinogenic mushrooms at her home. Cox – the prince’s courtship in his teenage years – responded to this with her trademark humour: “I certainly wasn’t sharing them.”
