Priscilla | Posted at 12:30am on Monday, June 8th, 2009 | Courteney Cox is the most honest, loving, caring and beautiful actress and person. She is so blunt, and an open book for everyone. She is the best actress of the Friends cast in my opinion as she can play anything, and dares to take challenges all the time, and never fails to give an outstanding performance. She is terrific, and known as the biggest sweetheart, to charities and fans. I only heard wonderful things about her. An inspiration to me on so many levels!
