Born in Los Angeles in 1969, acting is actually in Aniston’s blood. Her father is in the business, as is her mother, and despite the fact that they didn’t want her to follow in their footsteps, she knew it was something that she wanted to do. Aniston’s big break didn’t come until landed the role of Rachel on Friends, and EveryDayKoala reports that prior to that, she enrolled in LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in Manhattan, where she graduated in 1987. Many people might not know that Aniston almost never got the chance to play Rachel at all since she was all set to star in another show at the time. Fortunately, she was able to take the career-making role and has been a household name ever since. Over the years, Aniston has appeared in some hit movies such as Cake, Horrible Bosses, and We’re the Millers, and she is also the recipient of countless awards. In addition to several Teen Choice and People’s Choice awards, the actress has won several Screen Actor’s Guild Awards and Primetime Emmy Awards for her work. Even after all these years, Aniston’s career shows no signs of slowing down.
