“I am not getting paid” – ‘Friends’ Diva Courteney Cox Reveals a Stark Different Between Her and Majority of Celebs Who Own Businesses
Most renowned for her iconic role on Friends, Courteney Cox has now embarked on an entrepreneurial journey that perfectly mirrors her beloved character’s passion for cleanliness and organization. Almost as if drawing inspiration from Monica’s meticulous nature, Cox has founded a cleaning product business called Homecourt. As the visionary founder and a prominent investor in the brand, Cox has embarked on a mission to address an unexplored niche in the market. That is the newly emerging demand for a range of home care products devoid of harsh chemicals.
When she stepped into the field, many assumed that it was just another addition to the vast array of celebrities. However, one financial aspect sets her apart from other celebrity entrepreneurs.

In an interview with Marie Claire, Cox directly spoke of the difference between other “celebrity brands” and Home Court. According to her, she is among the rare breed that demands perfection, even in the smallest of details. Even though the 59-year-old confessed to “not getting paid” for her perfectionism, she did it because she wanted her products “to be the best” possible versions that reflect her dedication to Home Court.
From its fragrance to packaging, she was revealed to have contributed to it all. When it came to the fragrances, she may not be as indulgent for herself as one may assume, but her brand deserved the best. Besides the sleek packaging, the opulent fragrances that feature in her products are usually reserved for fine perfumes. Furthermore, none of these creative decisions were randomized.
The Friends star has had plenty of time to hone her business skills, having practised it since childhood.

At the tender age of 13, Cox’s eagerness to earn her own income led her to land a job. Even at that age, she had grasped the advantages of building a rainy day reserve through supplementary incomes. For her first job, she raised funds for a charitable foundation. Later, while she pursued acting, she retained this habit. In her spare time, she devoted herself to purchasing, refurbishing, and subsequently selling properties.
Eventually, as her Hollywood career flourished and financial stability became less of a concern, Cox still maintained her involvement in real estate. Today, she has applied those early learning to Home Court. It is a testament to her commitment to redefining home maintenance. Now, with her products that cater to the most discerning homemakers, Cox’s attention to detail and love for cleanliness have been channeled into eco-friendly cleaning solutions.
