Despite a 25-year friendship, Jennifer Aniston had a hilarious reaction after discovering Reese Witherspoon’s real name. The pair appeared on LADBible to promote their Apple TV+ series, The Morning Show, where they played a game of ‘Do You Even Know Me?’.
New Title: “Who the Hell’s Laura?” Aniston Asks
Witherspoon quizzed her co-star: “What is my real middle name? A: Jane, B: Jean or C: Joan.” When Aniston guessed “Jane,” Witherspoon corrected her, saying, “It’s confusing. I’m Laura Jean.” Aniston was shocked to find out that Reese’s first name isn’t Reese at all. “Laura Jean?” she exclaimed. When Witherspoon confirmed, Aniston added, “Laura! Who’s Laura? Who the hell’s Laura? I’m not calling you that from now on! Where did Reese come from?” Witherspoon explained, “It’s my middle name. I’m Laura Jean Reese. I’ve always gone by Reese.”
The moment surprised Aniston, who has been close friends with Witherspoon since she played her on-screen sister on Friends back in 2000. Later in the chat, Aniston also shared her middle name with Witherspoon, who was equally stunned to learn that Aniston’s full name is Jennifer “Joanna” Aniston.
