In March 2023, Jennifer Aniston sat down with Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest on their show Live with Kelly and Ryan. During the chit-chat, the actress reminisced about her teen days when she used to hang out at Cher’s house, famously known as the Goddess of Pop. She became friends with her son Chaz Bono while attending Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School in New York City. “It was just wild and wonderful ’cause we didn’t really know Cher. We were little kids in high school,” explained the 54-year-old.

Aniston also recalled that there were “beautiful windows” with “chiffon curtains” and that Keith Richards lived next door. But the Murder Mystery star appreciated her visits more than just for the interior design. She and her friends used to meet her son for the music icon’s impressive assortment of snacks. “Yes, she had food, from Balducci’s, as she likes to say. And she seems to think I ate it all,” she added.
