29 Celebrity BFFs with Friendships We're Jealous Of

Friends! You've probably made one or two over the course of your life, or if you're lucky, maybe even a whole bunch… In case you're probably not reading this listicle and instead are out… I don't know, at a roof party or something? Look at you. Really cool.

Still, your closest friendships are inevitably not as interesting as the friendships between celebrities and artists, working together and doing cool high profile stuff together. Below is a big ol' list of some of the most notable-- Many have been profiled plenty of times, like everyone knows that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck were friends who wrote a popular movie together, and John Lennon and Paul McCartney sang a couple of songs people liked or whatever… But there are also a handful of surprising ones, too.
