The recent revelation by the American actor Courteney Cox has opened up a conversation about whether or not her performance in the ‘Friends’ show was not up to the mark like her other co-stars or there is some hidden discrimination against the famously known ‘Monica’.
During a chat on The Howard Stern Show, with costars Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow, Cox revealed that how she is feeling disappointed for being the only Friends star who wasn’t nominated for an Emmy.
She explained how she was ‘hurt’ after getting snubbed by the award show while the rest of her mates all bagged a nomination.
“When every single cast member was nominated but me, it definitely hurt my feelings.”
Said Cox.
“I was happy for everybody, and then when it was finally like, ‘Oh, I’m the only one?’ It hurt,” she added.
“I just sometimes want to be included in certain things. These girls on the show and the guys, everyone deserved every [nomination]. I’m in awe of both of your talents.”
She said addressing Aniston and Kudrow.
She went on to say that she felt better after she was nominated at the 2010 Golden Globes for Cougar Town.
“The only thing that made me feel good because they’ve all won and they’ve gotten so many accolades, I got nominated for Cougar Town the first year—a Golden Globe,” she said.
“And I want to say, ‘Oh, who cares?’ It meant everything to me. I wanted my peers to respect me and I know that the Golden Globes is not your peers, necessarily, but it’s like, ‘Ah!’ It took a little of the sting out.”
Said Cox.
