So which `Friends` character did Jane Krakowski auditioned for?

Jane Krakowski won four Primetime Emmys for her role on “30 Rock” – but apparently that wasn’t the first NBC sitcom she tried out for.

“Like nearly every actor in the world, I auditioned for Friends“.

Actress Jane Krakowski wore a dust pink and black gown by India-born designer Bibhu Mohapatra for the Emmy awards ceremony, in which she was nominated in the outstanding supporting actress in a comedy series category. News on the Emmy red carpet.

John Shearer/WireImage Jane Krakowski revealed she tried out for the role of Rachel on “Friends” early in her career. Obviously the role went to Jennifer Aniston, but Krakowski still wishes she had gotten the part. The “30 Rock” star auditioned for the show’s pilot, but as we know all, it went to the then-unknown Aniston. So who was actually in the running to play Rachel?

Still, you have to wonder…What if she had landed the role?
