Lisa Kudrow, who played the beloved character Phoebe Buffay in the hit sitcom Friends for 10 years, has revealed that she's often confused with her character in real life - and Sandra Bullock is one of those.

During her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday, July 16, Lisa shared a hilarious encounter with Sandra Bullock when she was asked, "How often do people call you Phoebe?”

"Oh my God I just love this … I was at a party — a big party — and I was talking to Sandra Bullock,” she explained.

Lisa went on to share, “And we were talking and she’s like, ‘Well, I guess you’ll just have to talk to yourself, Phoebe.’”

“She called me Phoebe. She caught herself. She went, ‘What’d I just do?’”” Lisa recalled of Sandra with a laugh.

When asked about rewatching the show, Lisa confessed, "I do [watch it] now, but I didn’t forever. I couldn’t watch it. I couldn’t watch myself at all … even if I wanted to, the embarrassment of someone walking into the room [and seeing me watch Friends].”

Lisa Kudrow starred on Friends for 10 seasons between 1994 and 2004, alongside the late Matthew Perry, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox and Matt LeBlanc.
