Friends star Courteney Cox thinks she's a bigger clean freak than Monica. The actress played the beloved character Monica Geller for 10 years on the NBC series from its debut in 1994 to its final season 2004.

Known for being fiercely competitive and fastidiously tidy, fans gave the character flack over these qualities and even Cox has previously said she worried about how people perceived Monica.
