Can you picture Jennifer Aniston as a regular on Saturday Night Live?

She and Adam Sandler were chatting on The Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday about their new movie,and they recalled that Aniston met with exec producer Lorne Michaels about joining the SNL cast years ago.

"We wanted Aniston to be on the show with us," recounted Sandler, who was on SNL from 1990 to 1995. "I remember being on the ninth floor where Lorne Michaels' office was and seeing Jen come in. I was like, 'Oh my God, there's Aniston. Is she about to be on our show?'"

But no, she turned it down for another project.

"[I remember thinking], 'She said no?' She's gonna do that Friends? What the hell is Friends? That was the truth," said Sandler, laughing.

Aniston added that she took a lot of grief for it from friends.

"They were like, 'You're so stupid,'" she said.

To clarify, Oprah asked, "Did Lorne Michaels offer that to you?"

"Yeah, you know, I had this show Friends coming up and I thought, 'Yeah, Saturday Night Live?'" Jen said.

"Worked out for ya," Oprah said.

"Did all right," Jennifer said with a laugh.
