"The one where Jennifer Aniston joined Instagram with a FRIENDS reunion photo and broke the App. Literally. You can’t even follow her right now."

Despite the site crashing, Jennifer's joining of Instagram has been met with celebration.
According to People, Jennifer also follows her former co-stars on Instagram, as well as her ex-husband Justin Theroux - with whom she was with for seven years up until 2018.
Justin left a comment on her first post, writing:
“Woot-Woot! #first.”
Jennifer was welcomed to Instagram by her friend and fellow actor Reese Witherspoon, who commented:
“YASSSS!!! Welcome to Insta Jen!!!”
