TV Trivia: the set of "Friends" was refrigerated.

Jennifer Aniston is on the cover of the new Allure magazine (whatever that is), and in the accompanying interview she denounces the “Rachel” haircut that made her a star and led to 87% of white American women getting layered haircuts.

“I love Chris [McMillan, her hairstylist], and he’s the bane of my existence at the same time because he started that damn Rachel, which was not my best look. How do I say this? I think it was the ugliest haircut I’ve ever seen. What I really want to know is, how did that thing have legs? Let’s just say I’m not a fan of short, layered cuts on me personally, so I don’t love revisiting that particular era.” [JustJared]

“Ugh, I hated that period of my life! I was married to the most handsome actor in the world and I starred in the most popular show on television that has netted me untold millions of dollars thanks to a decade of syndicated re-runs. Please, let’s not talk about that era.”

It’s a slow news day, so the gossip world is abuzz at the revelation from Jennifer Aniston’s appearance on last night’s “Daily Show”: the former “Friends” star and Jon Stewart went on a date in the mid-’90s. Oh my God! Two people in the entertainment industry possibly dating?!?!? Has that ever happened before?

Aniston, of course, is promoting The Switch. Here’s the crux of FilmDrunk’s review:

If you’re kind of a yuppie and you drive a new model beige foreign sedan and have a Blackberry for your job and go to spin class and like white people stuff, you’ll probably love this movie.

Ugh, sounds terrible.

Anyway, I’ve got video of the interview embedded below, and their banter about the date makes a perfectly charming story. But then, I don’t really mind Jennifer Aniston. Don’t get me wrong: her movies blow. But I’ve got nothing against her. She seems like a very nice person. Who makes lousy movies.

THEN: “Best girlfriends forever!” (back then, teenagers wrote out the entire word “forever”)

NOW: *acoustic, emo version of “Friends” theme* “So no one told you life was gonna be this way…”
