The special episode features the six stars of the cult American sitcom — Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer and Matt LeBlanc — for the first time since the 2004 finale of the TV series, that ran for nearly a decade. It also features a variety of special guests included David Beckham, Justin Bieber and Lady Gaga among others.
