46 | !!Tropes associated with her work: |
47 | |
48 | * BreakupBreakout: Although Rachel Green is still easily her most iconic role, she has been far more successful than her ''Friends'' co-stars since the show ended. |
49 | * ChickFlick: Her bread and butter throughout the 2000s. |
50 | * HereComesTheScience: Provided the page quote in her L'Oreal commercials. |
51 | * MsFanservice: A rare example of an actress becoming this later in her career. While she spent her first decade after ''Friends'' starring in female-oriented romantic comedies, she began taking sexier roles in films like ''Horrible Bosses'' and ''We're the Millers'' after she turned 40. The only times where she was plenty {{Fanservice}}y before that were in ''Leprechaun'' (at the very beginning of her career) and ''The Break-Up''; the most famous scene from the latter was her walking around naked while Gary (Vince Vaughn) was playing a boxing video game. [[DistractedByTheSexy He gets knocked out.]] Not to mention the fact that her nipples seem to be able to poke out of any sort of clothing, on screen or off. |
52 | * TheRedStapler: The famous "Rachel" cut from ''Friends''. She's admitted several times that she ''[[CostumeBacklash hated]]'' the hairstyle, finding it nearly impossible to make it look good without a stylist's help, and was confused that it became so popular. |
53 | * StageNames: Her UsefulNotes/{{Greece}}-born father John Aniston (Victor Kiriakis on ''Series/DaysOfOurLives'') had the last name Anastasakis at birth, but his family anglicized it when they emigrated to the US. |
