The iconic sit-com series Friends has featured cameos of many celebrities over the years. One of these is iconic Belgian actor-martial artiste Jean-Claude-Van Damme, who recently admitted that he feels ashamed about his cameo with Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox.
In the episode titled The One After the Super Bowl: Part 2, the actor played himself opposite Jennifer Aniston‘s Rachel and Courteney Cox‘s Monica.
In the episode, Rachel and Monica both have a crush on Jean-Claude Van Damme after he starts filming a movie in New York City. But when Rachel approaches him first since Monica is too shy, it leads to a fight between them about who gets to go on a date with him.
Van Damme recalling the incident told the New York Post in a recent interview: “My acting is so bad. I look like a ham. Like, ‘Hey, girls.’ It’s like, I’m ashamed of myself (sic).”
He continued: “So, then I was on the set, and those girls, they go, and they kiss me, and they kiss me on the lips. I didn’t know what to do, how to do It was strange. They were very nice.”
“So, when I go to the show, I see those two beautiful girls, and they say this is the hottest show right now in the world. So, I was very glad,” the Kickboxer star recalled. “And my agent said, ‘You have to do an episode with them. So you’re going to play this guy’”. (IANS)
