Jennifer Aniston is a household name that needs no introduction. Popularly known for her role in the 90s sitcom Friends, the actress has given the world amazing performances in movies like The Break Up, Cake, Bruce Almighty, and many more. While other stars from the Primetime Emmy award-winning comedy series failed to create a significant impact outside the show, Aniston emerged as a successful movie star with back-to-back hits. With a net worth of $300 million and a box-office gross of over $1.6 billion, one would think the 54-year-old was meant for acting. However, the record-breaking star had a backup career plan as well. 

Everyone has plan B in case plan A fails. And so did Aniston as well. She recently revealed what she would have wanted to pursue if she wasn’t an actress. And it somewhat matches her Rachel vibe as well. 

Jennifer Aniston revealed her backup career

Just before the release of the new season of Aniston’s highly anticipated series, The Morning Show, the actress spoke about the profession she would like to try if acting failed. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, the actress was asked about the profession she would have tried if not acting. To this, she replied with interior designing. She shared how she loves “putting homes together and creating spaces.” Further expressing her obsession with decorating homes, the actress went on to say that she “can walk into a house and see what it needs”, and how “it’s a fun process”. However, this is not the only time fans got to know Aniston’s knack for designing.

In the March 2018 issue of Architectural Digest, the actress gave a tour of her midcentury home, which she shared with ex-husband Justin Theroux and their dogs. The actress revealed in the magazine that if she was not an actress, she’d “want to be a designer”. Even though the couple had a shocking split, they put a lot of thought into decorating their beautiful house and also helped each other at times years after their split.

Apart from that, the actress has also collaborated with many talented designers over the years to design her homes.

Over the years, Aniston has changed a lot of homes, but she made sure to give her place of living an enchanting touch of her design acumen. The first home featured in Architectural Digest was a Harold W. Levitt creation of the 70s, and she modified it with her designer friend Stephen Shadley. Shadley, the AD100 interior designer, also helped the actress design her $21 million in Bel-air. The 77-year-old is a regular partner in Aniston’s designing projects and also helped her in renovating her home in Trousdale Estates, Beverly Hills. However, on some days the actress has been a self-sufficient designer too.

Aniston reportedly decorated her ex-husband’s office and turned it into her ‘babe-cave’, as reported by The News. She further revealed that the actor liked his interiors to be dark and dingy, which irked the Emmy Award winner. She then “lightened it up, stripped it all,” giving it a makeover. Indeed, she still has a knack for designing which he ensures to fulfill in one way or another.
