Jennifer Aniston has the buzz on why there won’t be more Friends

JENNIFER ANISTON reckons Friends would never get made today — because of mobile phones.

The sitcom actor, who starred in the iconic show alongside Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, Matt Le Blanc and David Schwimmer from 1994 to 2004, believes many of the series’ key cafe scenes just wouldn’t ring true today.

Speaking to Arianna Huffington in a podcast, she said: ‘We were jokingly saying that if Friends was created today, you would have a coffee shop full of people that were just staring into iPhones.

‘There would be no actual episodes or conversations.’

So that reunion’s looking unlikely then.

And the actress isn’t a great fan of mobile phones for one other reason too.

‘I honestly think I used to sleep beautifully and I don’t think I attributed [that] to the fact that these phones came into our lives that have actually started to disrupt our sleep,’ she said.

But Jen’s not a total technophobe, admitting that she and hubby Justin Theroux both use meditation apps to relax.
