Friends' Lisa Kudrow has opened up about which of her co-stars she would 'do anything' for.

Admittedly I was very late to the show, having only caught glimpses of the series when round at mates' houses, and I finally committed to sitting down and watching the whole sitcom just a few months back.

However, having now shed enough tears since finishing Friends, I am equally as taken aback by Kudrow's recent revelation on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

The 58-year-old was asked by the host to fill in the blanks of certain statements. One read: "I would do anything [blank] asked me."

"Courteney Cox. That's easy," Kudrow swiftly replied.

However, when questioned by DeGeneres if she would 'do anything' for Cox 'more than [her] child?,' Kudrow joked: "You know, if he asks me something that’s inappropriate, I have to say no."

DeGeneres then questioned: "But, if Courteney asks you something inappropriate, you would say yes?"

"Well, she's an adult and I trust her. Actually, right now, my son's an adult and I trust him," Kudrow reflected, before changing her answer to her son.

Kudrow's initial answer may shock some Friends fans, as while I wanted Joey and Rachel to get together - sorry Ross - many viewers rooted for Joey and Phoebe to pair up given their similar personalities, creative careers and how everyone else in the group had coupled up.

However, writer David Crane told Metro how 'it all would have been too tidy and too complete'.

"When your goal is to keep the six characters’ stories together, it would be really easy to go down that road but I think we all felt it would be a mistake," he said.

Kudrow also revealed that if her, Cox and Jennifer Aniston 'were to take an art class' that she'd 'like her husband to be the nude model,' commenting on his 'most beautiful back side'.

The actress also stated that 'the Friends co-star most likely to send an inappropriate meme is' herself.

"Me, because i would think it means something and then everyone else would say, 'Why did you? That's not what that means'," she explained.

While the Friends Reunion may have marked the last time we see the original crew, with Kudrow having expressed her doubt over there ever being a reboot 'with any' of the 1994 sitcom's actors in it, the actress previously stated that she 'would love to see' a modern reboot of the sitcom.

Kudrow appeared on the Ellen show to promote her role as a therapy session-running poodle named Honey in animated sitcom HouseBroken.
