Jennifer Aniston got candid about social media, going so far as to say she “hates” it.
The “Friends” alum not only hates it, but she also revealed that being on social media is “torture” for her.
“I hate social media,” Aniston admitted to Allure. “I’m not good at it… It’s torture for me. The reason I went on Instagram was to launch a line. Then the pandemic hit and we didn’t launch. So I was just stuck with being on Instagram. It doesn’t come naturally.”
Aniston also opened up the beloved sitcom that she starred in, speculating that the absence of social media is one of the reasons leading to its ever-popularity.

“There are people who say that watching ‘Friends’ has saved them during cancer diagnosis, or so many people with just so much gratitude for a little show,” Aniston said. “We really loved each other, and we took care of each other. I don’t know why it still resonates; there are no iPhones. It’s just people talking to each other. Nobody talks to each other anymore.”

“I was trying to … It was a challenging road for me, the baby-making road,” Aniston told the outlet. “All the years and years and years of speculation…. It was really hard. I was going through IVF, drinking Chinese teas, you name it. I was throwing everything at it. I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me, ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favor.’ You just don’t think it. So here I am today. The ship has sailed.”
