Phoebe Buffay-Hannigan is a fictional character on the popular US television sitcom Friends (1994â2004), played by Lisa Kudrow. She is perhaps best known for her guitar playing in Central Perk and her elaborate improbable stories about her previous lives.
Likewise, Lisa Kudrow has also seen her career flop since Friends. The 46-year-old blonde, who played Phoebe Buffay, has appeared in a series of forgettable, mostly supporting roles in a string of second rate comedies, including the 2007 turkey P.S. I Love You. However, none of the former Friends - who are said to have negotiated Â£10million each with Warner Bros to reform on screen - would end up completely penniless if the film were not made. They all receive substantial royalties every time re-runs of the series, which aired for ten years, are shown around the world.
