#24. Courtney Cox Arquette, 41
...when the rain starts to pour. Is the song stuck in your head yet? Courtney is the only Friends alum to make our list. Jennifer Aniston is not 40 yet (and there are doubts as to whether she'd make the list even then) and Lisa Kudrow is quirky, but quirky does not hot equal. In any case, she has connections to other tetragenarian (or older) on the list. She shares a birthday with
Helen Hunt and
Morgan Fairchild guest starred on a bunch of Friends episodes. She's also from Alabama and we love us some Southern belles (in superficiality, not in ideology). We would sit with Courtney on the front porch all afternoon sippin' sweet tea. And at night, we'd keep watch on the front yard with our shotguns in case any vermin tried to enter the premises. And when we have company, Courtney can fix us some mint juleps to entertain the guests. Ah, the Southern life of molasses and humidity...that's the right stuff.
