"Nobody cared about me," she said of the show's early success in a Saturday, April 4, interview with the U.K.'s Independent. "There were certain parts of [my talent agency] that just referred to me as 'the sixth Friend.'" Kudrow, 62, shot to fame as Phoebe Buffay in the hit comedy, starring alongside David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc and the late Matthew Perry.
