Matthew Perry has just released his memoir Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing and certain passages about his former co-star Jennifer Aniston are raising eyebrows.
Celebrity Memoir Bookclub, an excellent podcast that dissects the memoirs of celebrities, pointed out on TikTok that Perry’s behaviour towards Aniston was low-key slimey.
In one passage, he recounts asking Aniston out then when she declined and said she just wanted to be friends, he responded: “Well now we can’t be friends.”
In another part, he discusses the “awkward” experience of working with Aniston after she rejected him.
He creepily recalls staring at her for multiple seconds at a time. I’m sure that created a pleasant working environment for her.
He also recounts punching a hole through her dressing room wall after finding out that Chris Farley had passed away.
There’s a part where he discusses why Friends came to an end and he pretty much puts the blame on Jennifer Aniston.
“The truth was we were all ready for Friends to be done,” he wrote.
