While all six main leads of the widely popular sitcom “Friends” were loved by viewers, the main focus had always been on Jennifer Aniston’s Rachel and David Schwimmer’s Ross.

For this reason, Schwimmer and Aniston who played these incredibly popular characters got a higher salary than the rest of the cast Matt LeBlanc, Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox, and Matthew Perry. According to some reports, all six of them were paid $22,500 each episode in Season 1.

 

However, when Rachel and Rose stole the limelight in Season 2, Schwimmer and Aniston got a hike as compared to the rest of the cast. Also, the second season was allegedly the one out of all seasons where the six stars were not given the same money. 

 

Incidentally, both Aniston, as well as, Schwimmer asked the authorities to slash their salaries so that everyone could get an equal sum. Schwimmer was the one who negotiated the stars’ contracts because LeBlanc was getting the least payout of all.

 

LeBlanc remembers Schwimmer proposed that all of them should be together so that no one can “rattle” them. The idea worked out especially for him because he was getting the least salary among the lead actors. The stars got a hike in the next season, Geo News reports.

 

Meanwhile, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston had a lavish wedding two decades ago on July 31. Although the union ended in divorce just five years later, the former golden couple has always been in the limelight.

 

The former power couple got married in Malibu, in the plush mansion of the TV producer Marcey Carsey. The “Friends” alum wore a beautiful white gown on her wedding day, which was designed by Lawrence Steele. The “Troy” actor, on the other hand, looked dashing in a red tie and a blue suit. 

 

Their wedding ceremony allegedly cost a million dollars with around 300 guests present. Some of these celebrity guests were Courtney Cox, Cameron Diaz, Edward Norton, Liza Kudrow, David Schwimmer, and Salma Hayek.

 

Although the couple had made pledges of eternal love, they shocked their fans by separating after just five years in 2005. There had been rumors about the possibility of an affair between Pitt and Angelina Jolie even before his divorce from Jen got finalized. 

 

What happened next is quite well-known. The “Fight Club” star confirmed the news of his linkup with Jolie after his divorce from Jennifer Aniston, Play Crazy Game writes. The Oscar-winning actor eventually got married to Jolie, thus confirming the past rumors.
