Despite spilling some behind-the-scenes secrets from the ’90’s sitcom, Matthew Perry doesn’t think his “Friends” co-stars would take a personal interest in his new memoir, “Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing.” Aside from Lisa Kudrow, who penned the foreword to the book, Perry told GQ recently that his other co-stars are “not going to really care about this.” His book’s main audience, according to Perry, are addicts and “Friends” fans.
In Kudrow’s foreword, per Page Six, she wrote that although Perry has shared some of his addiction stories with her before, it was never this detailed. “He’s now letting us into Matthew’s head and heart in honest and very exposed detail,” Kudrow described. One such story involved Jennifer Aniston, who was the first “Friends” cast member to confront Perry about his drinking. According to Perry, Aniston walked up to him one day and said bluntly, “I know you’re drinking … We can smell it.”
Perry’s nonchalance about his “Friends” co-stars’ reactions contradicts a March report from OK! that they were “in a panic” over his memoir’s impending release. “The word is he’s going to unload on the whole crew … the good, the bad and the ugly things,” a source told the outlet at the time.
If you or anyone you know is struggling with addiction issues, help is available. Visit the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration website or contact SAMHSA’s National Helpline at 1-800-662-HELP (4357).
