When Zoey Deutch starred alongside Jennifer Aniston in the new comedy Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass, she was starstruck.

Though, interestingly, the actress had met the Friends star before, yet she told People, “That was incredibly surreal for me."

She continued, “I have met this person and I’ve spoken to them a couple times, and they’re incredibly warm and lovely and funny."

"But working with them was absolutely one of the most surreal moments of my life and inspiring too.”

But Deutsch did not stop there. She went further.

“It’s like when you just see someone who’s the greatest of all time doing it, you’re like, ‘Goddammit,’” she added.

Aniston's presence, Deutch said, was so captivating that she struggled to perform.

“Every take was just so brilliant, and I was probably the worst actor in the world because I was more of an audience than a participant."

“I couldn’t help myself. It was definitely one of the coolest moments of my life," the actress said.

In the film, Deutch and Aniston shared a brief, but according to People, funny scene.

Elsewhere in the interview, the actress said she instantly came on board after learning David Wain is directing the film.

Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass are in theatres.
