Seeing Jennifer Aniston splash around while filming a guest spot for 30 Rock might bring back memories of that infamous fountain scene during the opening credits of Friends, but that's where the similarities between Rachel Green and her upcoming character on the TV comedy end.

NBC has announced that the actress plays a "free-spirited, Fatal Attraction-like stalker" named Claire Harper, a former roommate of Tina Fey's character Liz Lemon. When Claire arrives in New York from Chicago, she begins an obsession with Jack Donaghy (Alec Baldwin).

"Jennifer is not only incredibly lovely to have around, she also has what the young people would call 'mad skills,' " says Fey. "We're very excited that she's joining us." 

As our resident TV guru Kristin Dos Santos reported last week, Jen will most likely appear in the first or second episode of the season.
