A perk that no one tells you about becoming a famous actor or actress is that you might get a best friend out of the deal. True, that’s probably zero percent of the reason why celebrities get into the business to begin with. But it would NOT be true to say that that’s not how they end up after a little while. Because some of Hollywood’s most beloved best friendships began right on a TV set!
Whereas some famous BFFs — is FBFFs a thing? Can we make it a thing? — have been super tight since they were kids (ahem, Selena Gomez & Demi Lovato), others had to wait a while for their bestie in shining armor to come along. But the waiting paid off! Because these ten BFFships that owe their bond to their shared TV show are some of the strongest in the game:
Nina Dobrev, Candice Accola & Kat Graham
SHOW:The Vampire Diaries
Three's not a crowd when it comes to these lovely co-starring BFFs!

Jennifer Aniston & Courteney Cox
SHOW:Friends
Jen and Courteney are just as close now as they were in the days when they were co-stars. Maybe even closer, actually.

Snooki & JWoww
SHOW:Jersey Shore
How cute is it that Snooki and JWoww have ended up having and raising families together after all of this time? And after their hot mess of a reality series, too.

Bella Thorne & Zendaya
SHOW:Shake It Up!
Although these two no longer work together, they spend any moment they can hanging out. Like at recent Fashion Week shows, for example!
