Saying No to Jennifer Aniston

Despite a rather public divorce, actress Jennifer Aniston definitely has a lot going for her. I can't imagine anyone saying no to her, especially when it comes to acting jobs, but believe it or not, they do. Who dared utter the two-letter word to this A-list celebrity? Joel Surnow, the Executive Producer of the popular TV show, 24. She wanted to appear on the Fox show, but she was turned down, along with Ben Stiller. Surnow said, "You can't put those people on because they're too recognizable. They'll take you out of reality."

Poor Jen. She and Ben might have gotten turned down, but the upcoming sixth season will still get its fair share of celebrity guests, including Rick Schroder, Chad Lowe, Regina King, Peter MacNicol and James Cromwell. I guess none of them are as big a star as they thought.
