Courteney Cox insists she has the "worst memory in the world" and even forgets when she doesn’t like someone.
The 50-year-old actress joked it is fine to be disliked by her because she can never remember and recalled a time when she once went into a restaurant and accidentally spoke to a guy before suddenly remembering that she hated him but couldn’t put her finger on the reason why.
She said: "I have the worst memory in the world … I even forget when I don’t like somebody.
"Once I walked into a restaurant and I saw this guy from across the way and I was like, ‘Oh God that’s a familiar face.’ So I went up and said, ‘Hey,’ and he was like, ‘Hi’… and then I go, ‘Oh that’s right, we hate each other.’ And I couldn’t even remember why I hated him!
"It’s good to be hated by me because I forget."
The former ‘Friends’ star proves her bad memory claim during an appearance on talk show ‘Conan’ tonight (06.01.15) when she plays a version of game show ‘Celebrity Name Game’, in which a famous face helps out a contestant to answer questions correctly, but fails to remember any 1980s bands and ends up without a single correct answer.
When Courteney – who produces the show – ends the game without a point, talk show host Conan O’Brien says: "Wow that is … that is bad. That is unbelievable … this is your show, you created this show."
The raven-haired beauty adds: "They didn’t win guys. Nothing. Not even one point! There’s so much pressure, but it’s a really fun show."
UK viewers can watch Courteney Cox’s interview on Conan at 11pm on Tuesday (06.01.15) on truTV (freeview channel 68) – the home of larger than life characters in real situations.
