Friends star Jennifer Aniston spoke about what lifts her spirits, including her choice of ‘comfort food’ and her favourite celebrity pals to call, in a new interview
The Morning Show star Jennifer Aniston has spoken about her choice of “comfort food”. She gave an insight into her lifestyle, including also sharing that celebrity pals provide an “instant pick-me-up,” whilst promoting a project.
Jennifer, 56, released Cook with Clydeo, which is said to feature “kid-friendly recipes,” earlier this month. The new cookbook marks the return of the canine character Clydeo, based on by Jennifer’s rescue dog Clyde, who first appeared in her debut children’s book, Clydeo Takes a Bite Out of Life.
Whilst promoting the cookbook recently, Jennifer spoke about how she lifts her spirits in an interview released this week. The Friends star teased that she likes hosting gatherings at home and going out for food with her closest pals.

Speaking to People magazine, Jennifer said: “Honestly, having a group of friends over is always an instant pick-me-up.” She added in the interview that if she’s not at home “making some sort of comfort food like pizza nights, burgers or Mexican food,” she will be at a restaurant with her pals.
Jennifer said that she will go with them to her “favourite” restaurant, where she will have “some delicious meal” and enjoy ha martini as her choice of drink. She went on to name some of her closest friends in the interview.
The Golden Globe winner named former co-stars Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow as two of her favourite people to call. The three actors had worked together on NBC sitcom Friends, which ran for ten seasons from 1994 to 2004.
Jennifer also mentioned Jason Bateman’s wife Amanda Anka, Andrea Bendewald and Jennifer Meyer as some of the pals she feels “very lucky” to have in her life. She teased that if you can’t reach any of her friends on occasion, someone will “eventually” call her back.
Further speaking about her life, Jennifer told the outlet that she will watch a documentary and “turn off the news” when she wants to lift her spirits. It’s teased that her rescue dogs Clyde and Lord Chesterfield, whom she said are “spoiled” and described as her “babes,” provide comfort to her too.
And discussing her new cookbook, Jennifer said that her “personal favourite” dish is a savoury snack included in the 35 recipes. She said that it is “guilt-free” because they are “little bites,” before adding that they are “yummy”.
Jennifer introduced the character Clydeo in the picture book Clydeo Takes a Bite Out of Life. It was was published last year and is the first in a series of books featuring the canine.
Described as a “heartwarming story,” it follows the dog on a journey to discover what he loves to do most. A synopsis teases: “Everyone in the Clyde family knows what their ‘thing’ is, except Clydeo.”
It’s already been announced that two new books featuring Clydeo are set to be released. Clydeo versus Peanut Butter is set to be released later this year, whilst Clydeo Makes a Friend is expected to be published next year.
