Friends:
The One With The Fancy New WebsitePhoebe Buffay (Lisa Kudrow)
Ah Planet Phoebe. What a wonderful place to live.
At various points homeless, living with albinos and committing common street thuggery, it’s no wonder Phoebe is somewhat unconventional. Plus her family history doesn’t help. Her mom committed suicide, she has an evil identical twin sister. And then there’s her birth mother, her long-lost father, and her brother Frank, who Phoebe has a child for, making her his sister and his uncle – I think?
Phoebe has an air of childhood wonder. But then she also seems to sleep around a lot. It’s complicated. Luckily she has her music to fall back on. Though her songs include such classics as ‘Sticky Shoes’ ‘Jingle Bitch’ and ‘The Cow in the Meadow Goes Moo’ she also professes a love for the Grindcore outfit Carcass.
She has a taste for the mystical – believing fervently in Santa Claus, the paranormal and any other mumbo-jumbo she knows will wind Ross up. She also occasionally slips into French and Italian and once slipped into a gay ice-dancer. But its ok, they were married and he wasn’t gay after all.
