For the past years, rumors regarding DeGeneres' true colors have been rife. The comedian has built her on-screen image around being vocal against injustice and being generous to the needs of people. Numerous people have claimed the ugly truth that she is the complete opposite in reality.
For "America's Sweetheart" Aniston, fans across social media platforms became whipped into a frenzy over the idea that the "Friends" actress could be a possible candidate.
It has been said that her role as Rachel Green from "Friends" will always be attached to her by the public.

Thus, this qualifies her to replace Ellen DeGeneres as surmised by fans.
