Jennifer Aniston is known for her work ethic, but there was a time when she revealed being rowdy and having regrets about her education.

Jennifer Aniston Once Discussed Her Regrets About Her Education to Rolling Stone Back in 1999

In the annals of Hollywood, Jennifer Aniston has remained an enduring icon,
because of her talent, beauty, and charisma. Most of the world might know
Jennifer Aniston as the spoilt character Rachel Green from the NBC sitcom,
Friends. What her fans did not know was that her iconic character was not too
far off from the star’s teenage self. Although the star had the support to
follow her dreams, she may not have taken advantage of her opportunities.

Back in 1999, during an interview with Rolling Stone, Aniston opened up about
her regrets regarding her education, offering a glimpse into a side of her
rarely seen by the public.


JENNIFER ANISTON ADMITTED BEING “ROWDY” DURING HER SCHOOL DAYS

Twenty-four years ago, the now 54-year-old sat down with Rolling Stone

when she was at the peak of her popularity. With the craze for Friends
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/hollywood-news-friends-climbs-the-global-popularity-charts-worldwide-in-over-twenty-countries-but-is-usa-one-of-them/]
on the rise since the 90s, she was extremely well-known and loved. However, the
actress was always private about her personal life. During the interview, she
was asked about her education and whether she was a good student while growing
up. Although most people would have thought her to be a straight-A student,
Jennifer Aniston revealed she was “rowdy” and that she “had regrets” about her
education.

She went on to say that she spent most of her time in Rudolf Steiner School
finding ways to “get attention.” Although it may have worked, she admitted that
she “didn’t take in” as much as she could have. However, after she went to an
acting school, her attitude towards learning changed a bit. While it might be
surprising to think that Aniston was a troublemaker, it is a reality as revealed
by the Just Go With It star.

While she may have found her performing arts school through an old celebrated
film, she revealed that she was not in the teacher’s good books.


THE BEGINNING OF JENNIFER ANISTON’S ACTING CAREER

Jennifer Aniston might be one of the world’s favorite actresses now, but that
was not always the case. When she was growing up, her teachers thought that she
was “the worst.” She revealed to Rolling Stone back in 1999 that she had joined
a high school for performing arts to work on her craft. While her father was
against it, her mom supported her throughout.

Aniston also revealed that it was there when she realized she had a knack for
comedy. While she may have gotten lectured about tapping into her emotions and
not letting her humor act as “an escape,” the actress ended up telling her
teacher that she was “a serious 16-year-old actress.” Although fans may have
been deprived of her comedic touch, at least they got the star that brought
Rachel Green to life.
