Former _Friends_ co-stars Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow were both guests on Kimmel’s show as Aniston was making the rounds to promote her new film _Horrible Bosses 2_ and Kudrow was celebrating her comeback on _The Comeback_. However instead of a joyful reunion between former cast mates, Kimmel pitted them against each other in a vicious war of words called “Celebrity Curse Off.” Each actress was given five seconds to come up with a jaw-dropping vulgarity until one of the women failed to deliver a fittingly shocking return volley. If you can read between the beeps — and Aniston went Greek at one point – it’s an X-rated foray into diabolical language, with Kudrow getting a boost thanks to her teenaged son’s vocabulary. _Read next:_ [_Watch Jennifer Aniston Prank a Reporter_](http://time.com/3605300/jennifer-aniston-prank-reporter-bbc-radio-1/?xid=time%5Freadnext) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3604976/jennifer-aniston-lisa-kudrow-jimmy-kimmel-live-curse-off/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3604976/jennifer-aniston-lisa-kudrow-jimmy-kimmel-live-curse-off/"},"headline":"Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow Curse Each Other Out on Jimmy Kimmel Live!","datePublished":"2014-11-25T16:52:36.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:14:49.800Z","description":"@#$*","url":"https://time.com/3604976/jennifer-aniston-lisa-kudrow-jimmy-kimmel-live-curse-off/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","Comedy","viral","Videos","Friends","Jimmy Kimmel","celebrity","Viral Videos","jimmy kimmel live","jennifer aniston"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6ff2cd0bbb56cf03/69876ad8e20a8740ada83952/video-undefined-237c6bc900000578-701_636x358.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Melissa Locker","jobTitle":"","url":"https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt6ff2cd0bbb56cf03/69876ad8e20a8740ada83952/video-undefined-237c6bc900000578-701_636x358.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"aniston-kudrow-kimmel","caption":"","creditText":"","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3604976/jennifer-aniston-lisa-kudrow-jimmy-kimmel-live-curse-off/","name":"Jennifer Aniston and Lisa Kudrow Curse Each Other Out on Jimmy Kimmel Live!"}}]}] ```
