Significant others: Now divorced from Brad Pitt and linked to Paul Sculfor

One minute rundown: As everyone's favourite girl-Friend, in 1995 Jennifer Aniston sparked an outbreak in layered haircuts on the world's female population. Having moved to Manhattan to wait tables, she first got her break in a flop of a horror film, called Leprechaun. Seen it? Neither have we. No matter - her audition for Friends won her the part of Rachel Green just three hours later, and the rest is history.

In 1996 Jen starred in rom-com She's The One with Cameron Diaz and Edward Burns. She also played 'typical' female roles in The Object Of My Affection, Picture Perfect, and Office Space, which became a cult classic. In 1998, Brad Pitt swept her off her feet and the two became Hollywood's hottest couple. They married in 2000 and in 2002, Jen got an Emmy for Best Leading Actress. Her life seemed oh so perfect, especially after rave reviews for her role in The Good Girl, with Jake Gyllenhaal, but some things are just too good to last, aren't they.

After ten years, Friends finally came to an end, and then, in 2005, Brad and Jen separated. Just two months after their divorce was finalised it was announced that Brad and Angelina Jolie were expecting a kid together. Gutted. Of course, Jen stayed strong, taking up with funny man Vince Vaughn during their movie The Break Up, but we're hearing less and less about her relationships now. We think she's learnt her lesson!
