Jennifer Aniston, renowned for her iconic roles in romantic comedies and sitcoms, is stepping into a somewhat darker and delightfully comedic territory with her guest-starring role on NBC’s hit show, “30 Rock.” The 39-year-old former “Friends” star was spotted shooting scenes at New York City’s Palace Hotel for her role as Claire Harper, a character described as a “free-spirited, Fatal Attraction-like stalker.”

In this unusual and intriguing turn of events, Aniston’s character, Claire, is set to enter the life of Liz Lemon, played by Tina Fey, as her former college roommate.
