Amigos: 10 Coisas que até os fãs mais fervorosos não sabiam sobre Rachel
Rachel Karen Green was once a spoiled princess who transformed into a relatable and ambitious queen. Jennifer Aniston won over everyone’s hearts as Rachel in Friends. With her trendy haircuts and always on point fashion, she instantly became a fan favorite as fans cried with her through her heartbreak with Ross, cheered for her as she continued to grow her career, and cringed with embarrassment for her when she dressed up as a cheerleader to impress Joshua.
Many fans would insist they know everything there is to know about the resident fashionista on Friends, but here are 10 things even diehard fans didn’t know about Rachel!
Unafraid of Tarantulas
Rachel tends to not be the toughest of the group and usually scares easier than the rest, but there is one thing that does not freak her out like it does most people. In season 7, episode 10 when Phoebe’s feelings are hurt that Rachel is having more fun with Joey than she did with her, Phoebe buys Joey obnoxious gifts in an attempt to drive Rachel back to her.
Phoebe gifts Joey a drum set and a tarantula to make Rachel realize it’s better living with her. Phoebe’s plan backfires when Rachel not only enjoys the drums but also adores the tarantula. Rachel tells Phoebe how she loves tarantulas since she had one when she was a kid before her cat ate it. Joey did not appreciate the tarantula as much though.
Her Favorite Movie is Weekend at Bernie’s
Rachel’s favorite movie may come as a surprise to fans. She claims her favorite movie is Dangerous Liaisons and this one definitely goes with her image more than her actual favorite movie does; as it is a dramatic movie about the royal court in France. In actuality, her favorite movie is Weekend at Bernie’s.
Weekend at Bernie’s does not quite match the Rachel Green style of fashion and gossip since it is a silly comedy with no real dramatic flare about it. But Rachel does have a great sense of humor, like when she taught all those practical jokes to Ben, so maybe it’s not that much of a surprise after all.
Had Four Jobs Throughout the Series
Rachel moved to Manhattan as a 20-something with no job experience. Her first job was being a waitress at the coffee shop where the gang all hung out, Central Perk. After she quit her job at the coffee shop she started her fashion career. Rachel landed a job as an assistant at a company called Fortunata Fashions.
Then she had her big break as an assistant buyer at Bloomingdale’s after meeting the infamous Mark, but ultimately gets demoted to personal shopper; so technically she had five jobs total. All her hard work pays off as she finally lands her dream job as an executive at Ralph Lauren. You go girl, way to climb that career ladder!
Favorite Book is Little Women
Throughout Friends, Rachel is never seen as much of a reader, but she does have a favorite book. In season 3, episode 13, we discover that not only is Joey’s favorite book The Shining by Stephen King, but Rachel’s favorite read is Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. She admits that Little Women is the only book she’s ever read more than one time.
It’s understandable why Rachel was drawn to this book as it involved family drama and social pressures. Rachel dealt with family drama all throughout Friends whether it was her parents’ divorce or fighting with her sisters, and she also had to fight against social pressure when she decided to not marry Barry and live the cushion life everyone thought she should.
She is Jewish
Rachel’s religion is never openly discussed on the show throughout its 10 seasons, but Marta Kauffman, one of the show’s creators, told Jewish Telegraph in an interview that Rachel Green is in fact Jewish. She confirmed that Rachel is the only one who is Jewish by Halakha law, translated as Jewish Law.
Upon closer inspection it is revealed that Rachel does call her grandmother “Bubbe”, she was engaged to a Jewish doctor, Barry, and she does possess the “Jewish American Princess” stereotype of the 1990s since she was reliant on her father’s money and at first the thought of working did not appeal to her. Plus her best friend and her lobster are of Jewish descent.
Was the Last to be Cast
While David Schwimmer was the first “friend” to be cast, Jennifer Aniston was the last. She auditioned for Rachel as an actress who had already starred in five failed sitcoms. Then she was almost recast as she was also in a sitcom called Muddling Through, which ended up getting canceled. This allowed Jennifer Aniston to stay on as Rachel Green.
However, Jennifer Aniston was not even the first choice. Tea Leoni was the original first choice, but she turned it down. Next in line was Courtney Cox, but she rejected the part of Rachel as she felt was better suited for Monica, good call Courtney!
Rachel Almost Didn’t Make It Back For The Final Season
Ross and Rachel getting back together in season 10 of made every fan cry with tears of joy, the long-awaited reunion had finally happened. But it almost didn’t. Jennifer Aniston told NBC in 2004 that she had a couple of issues that she was working through, like ending the show on a high note and being able to still give the character her all.
She told NBC, “I wanted it to end when people still loved us and we were on a high. And then I was also feeling like, ‘How much more of Rachel do I have in me?'” Thank the sitcom gods for Jennifer Aniston agreeing to come back for the 10th season so every fan could finally get the happy ending of Ross and Rachel.
She is the Middle Sister
Rachel mentions her spoiled sisters on more than one occasion throughout the 10 seasons; never having too many pleasant things to say about either one. It’s possible Rachel isn’t the biggest fan of her sisters since she is the middle child, and has probably always been stuck between her two self-absorbed siblings.
In season 6, episode 13 “The One with Rachel’s Sister” fans first met Rachel’s little sister, Jill, played by Reese Witherspoon. Three seasons later fans met Rachel’s older sister Amy, played Christina Applegate, in the episode titled “The One with Rachel’s Other Sister.” Even though Rachel has to deal with her two spoiled sisters’ drama, she does come out on top as being the only one her dad is proud of.
Dated Joshua in Real Life
Rachel’s relationship with Joshua is undoubtedly one of the most awkward cringe-worthy moments in the entire 10 seasons. What might have added to this hard to watch embarrassment unfold was the fact that Tate Donovan, who played Joshua, and Jennifer Aniston were breaking up in real life after two years together.
Donovan was only in six episodes of Friends stating it was just too tough for him and Aniston to act like they were falling in love when in reality they were breaking up. Rachel is supposed to be with Ross anyways.
Aniston Won an Emmy And a Golden Globe as Rachel
Rachel Green is without a doubt one of the most iconic sitcom characters that rocketed Aniston into stardom. She became a household name, fashion icon, and bane of every hairdresser’s existence by the end of Friends. Rachel Green earned Aniston a massive amount of popularity and a couple of prestigious acting awards as well.
Aniston won a Golden Globe in 2003 for Best Performance by an Actress in Television Series and also earned an Emmy in 2002 for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series. It’s been 25 years since Friends came to an end and Rachel is still trending as style icon in true Rachel Green fashion.
