VIDEO: Lisa Kudrow Reveals She Struggled Playing Phoebe on FRIENDS

In the new episode of hit digital series Hiking with Kevin, SNL legend Kevin Nealon is joined by Friends star Lisa Kudrow, who opens up about playing Phoebe Buffay and reveals that she had a really hard time portraying the iconic character:

"I had played dumb girls [before] but it wasn't really me. I feel like, s, I tricked 'em at the audition. I was the only one who could cope with the audition process and that's how I got it,' I think. So I had to work hard at being Phoebe. And then, like, third season in, I was struggling so much."

The two also discuss if she would do a Friends reunion, how the cast banded together when renegotiating their contracts, why not getting SNL was a blessing in disguise, and more.
