I think men often get married for the 1st time at an older age, that some women have fertility issues roadblocking 1st marriage at an older age. But men, especially good looking, charming, funny, rich and famous, wealthy men can get married for the 1st time at any age.
@@hellvixens117 love how you've phrased that - focusing more on how he used his experiences to make others' life better, instead of "well you're a drunk" etc.
@@thelifeofvicky3091 From what I heard that's fake news. He did, however, have surgery to repair a hole in the GI tract which he spent three months in the hospital for. (he confirmed the three month hospital stay on Twitter)

There are no actors, but people are acting their lives away until one day they realize it's too late to act another one, then they die. The moral of the story act well in your life because it's the only one you have got.
Apparently him and his friends used to bully and pick on Justin Trudeau in school. That is absolutely heroic of them. Matthew Perry is a good man and a Canadian patriot for doing that to Justin in his youth.
Read his book Friends, Lover and the Big Thing. I was skeptical, not a huge Friends or Perry fan, and I'm also a recovering drug&alcohol addict myself, so celebs telling their sob stories didn't appeal, but it was recommended by my trusted sister. It's great. Humour, humility, honesty and some really great narrative about his life.
when i see comments like theese im very confused, he fucking played the characther, did you expected to come here and say , could this be more like al bundy? i dont know...idiot
I really got angry when he told him you will never get married properly he was the reason why Matt never stopped drinking and talking drugs . Nobody could ever tell you what your life is going to be . Live it until the end and always be positive . RIP Matt you deserved more from this world
yeah, after reading that he faced loneliness all his life and sought acceptance in the eyes of anyone who'd offer their gaze, I am sure that comment hit him hard :(
I definitely want to marry a guy like him. I think Matthew will definitely get married someday. He'll make a great husband. Very funny, sweet, nice, and loving. GOD BLESS.
Talking about his alcoholism was his purpose. His foundation helps those that struggle with alcoholism. Its heartbreaking he didn't live to stay in sobriety and help others. To live his life and fulfill his future hopes and dreams ❤️🩹 He was quick witted a naturally funny man who wrote a wonderful play and was a son, brother, friend. He had a life to live it's a staggering loss to many people who loved him❤️🩹🦇
I know this clip is already over ten years old but damn. From 2011 to 2021 is a stark change. Grew up watching reruns of Friends and a lot of my humor has been shaped around Chandler’s and, in turn, Matthew Perry’s. I wish this dude all the best.
He's still standing better than he ever did. I love and respect this man so much, people are focused on one thing about him, because we love focusing on flaws, but he readily talks about it so that someone else who is going through what he did may feel validated
I started watching Friends and yesterday I saw an episode where theyre neighbour dies and Chandler is scared that he will end up alone just like neighbour...
I don't get it... I'm a Brazilian Advanced English speaker; I know he's saying he misses drinking heavily, but I've never heard "like a dead brother" before. Could you help me? What is it about?
❤️Thanks for your unconditional love and support you have been showing me. It has been a difficult time for me but your love got me standing. Where are you watching from?
As for marriage , I would love to see Bill Maher in conversation with Clooney) he was set in his ways and still changed his mind about marriage and even about children 👶
Knowing how much Matthew wants a family, that comment made by Bill about how he likely won’t get married makes me sad 😔 I still hope he can find someone wonderful and compassionate to share his life with
Pretty sure being a celebrity/former celebrity with decent looks he has a much better chance of finding somebody than some random person his age. Also, it's always strange when people wish celebrities well - yes, they're also human, but they have access to so many resources/know so many people that ordinary people never will (for better or worse), that I'd have more sympathy for some average person going through that than a celebrity (with the exception being celebrities with serious conditions like MJF and Bruce Willis etc.)
The thing about him I didn’t know him as Chandler on FRIENDS… I don’t think I watched one episode of that show. I loved his character in the movie Fools Rush In with Salma Hayek. There’s just something so…you just have a feeling of wanting to take care of him, something so vulnerable about him and this was really before I knew he had any addictions, so I’m really sad that Matthew Perry is gone. I really am.
I worked in a maintenance dept of a large factory for 38 years so i grewup with a lot my coworkers and . These guys where great people but the ones that drank and the ones that did hard drugs were all dead by age of 6o. These guys started dieing off in there 30's. My first girlfriend out of highschool OD on meth in her upper 20's, and her brother died a few years after she did from drugs n alcohol. I'm retired now and I'm so thankful I made it but it's kinda lonely ,so many people just let alcohol n drugs rule thier lives.
Here’s how much I love Matthew Perry I’m willing to watch fucking Bill Maher stumble through his unfuniness just so I can here what a fellow ex drunk has to say
Being an alcoholic doesn't define a person. This has been his story for the past few decades now, and it's sad to see. Perry is a genius actor, promising director, and a seemingly decent person. Give a guy a break.
It's so weird that we can't help laughing at the dark humor of drunken stupidity. I remember thinking it was funny too, until I married an chronic alcoholic from a family of alcoholic. I didn't recognize the red flags and it ruined my life and the lives of my daughters. I don't laugh quite as much about this now, though I admire those who conquer it...
@@thep4897 She is free to say whatever she wants, she is right, alcoolism is not funny, It ruins lives. She has the right to use her personal life as an argument.
@@artyomalekseyevich5927 Hmm, I thought 'she' was a 'he'. In any case, I agree with him/her. When you think of all the destruction alcohol has done to people like Perry and others, the final frames in this video seem a bit perverse. I don't really blame them. Most of us love hearing drinking stories. But it's like that laugh track in Natural Born Killers.
@@Sokrabiades Oh, I'm guessing I kinda assumed that alcoholism is mostly a problem for men which is kinda sexist I guess, I did it unconsciously. Drinking stories are funny when they aren't common, You're basically getting to know a person in a way you've never known him before, so It's pretty funny to see them or hear them acting foolish. But when they become too common it isn't funny anymore, It's worrying, everything in moderation.
@@artyomalekseyevich5927 well, actually alcoholism is more common in men. Go to any AA meeting and you will realize. I have drink problems, although I'm a woman. It's not sexist, it's a fact
He was very smart funny sexy and honest about his addiction his book was a real insight into his struggles depression. He has help so many people and will continue to do so with his book if you haven't read it everyone really should.
A friend once, in the same situation, when questioned where he lived while being driven home, told these unknown people from the party he lived by a big lake (in Seattle). He never did figure out how they found his house.

Matthew was so quick and naturally funny. Good energy. Addiction did a number on him but his spirit was always there.
❤
Sad, pathetic loser. Wasn't even funny. 10 yrs on a ridiculously overrated show, with ridiculously overpaid actors. Nothing funny about him. Just sad.
Respect to anyone who can change for the better.
Which is why Matthew Perry has my respect.
Cheers to that! It's hard. Especially with an addiction, because it's such a huge part of your life.
Definitely!!! He's one of my heros!
well, he didn't
He will always be Chandler
Idk I was actually able to suspend disbelief when he was in Studio 60 and see him as Matt instead of Chandler.
To me always
He is Chandler. They have the same personality.
*Chandler is Matthew
Y
He’s still chandler and he still make jokes whenever he’s uncomfortable
he's awesome although he's a bad guy
@@TatianaRafikova how so? Just curious
I think men often get married for the 1st time at an older age, that some women have fertility issues roadblocking 1st marriage at an older age. But men, especially good looking, charming, funny, rich and famous, wealthy men can get married for the 1st time at any age.
Yeah, he also helped the writers in friends make the jokes
@@TatianaRafikova He's not a bad guy, wtf are you talking about?
He looks the best I've seen him since Friends ended.
Sky Black
This video is from 2011
He uses hair fibers, he's balding and angeing badly
@@emfraridades7261 no he’s just ageing. You will too. Give the guy a break!

✌️ 🤚
5 a 6 then 4 6 7 7 7 7 7
😂😂😂
Everyone is laughing and cheering but it is a truly sad story, rest in peace sir!
People should stop talking about his alcoholism. He's so much more than that. He's a brilliant artist.
I mean he does a lot for other people and their sobriety so it makes sense, it’s a big part of his life
@@hellvixens117 love how you've phrased that - focusing more on how he used his experiences to make others' life better, instead of "well you're a drunk" etc.
It's brave and commendable to talk about his alcoholism even so casually.
Artist? Lol, relax, he’s been in 1 show that was successful and honestly, the show sucked lol
@@tjsmithers3893 stfu
Kudos to him for turning his life around. And, also for having the courage to share this story so publicly.
Jada Y This is from 2011.
Oh, I did not realise that...Well, I'm glad he turned his life around at that time. Wonder if he's back to using/drinking now
Yeah he is. I remember seeing something a few weeks back that he has really gone down hill again..
That's a huge part of recovery. Good on him!
@@thelifeofvicky3091 From what I heard that's fake news. He did, however, have surgery to repair a hole in the GI tract which he spent three months in the hospital for. (he confirmed the three month hospital stay on Twitter)
RIP Matthew Perry. Still hard to believe a member of Friends is gone. Few shows will ever have that kind of impact or staying power.
Alcohol is classified as depressant but for many alcolics its like cocaine. Rocket fuel.
I wish they would stop showing that drag of a show. It sucks
@@_west33...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I never watched Friends!
I’ve seen 5 mins of Friends and … I don’t get it. But he seemed like a good guy.
Anyone who reckons "Friends" had a massive impact on the world? That's someone who seriously needs to broaden their cultural landscape.
Looking good and healthy.
ShallowDepression this was from 5 years ago
Actually seven years ago. They mentioned one of his failed series.
He actually looks the best I've ever seen him after FRIENDS
In 2011
He was on drugs
He is so charming
Ikr .... Oh he is
"I'm suprised I didn't try to drink you", omg, this is priceless
It is fascinating how some actors have the same personality in real life. You don't know if they act or talking for real.
I love this guy, he made me watch Friends like it is the only show ever existed.
Matthew is a legend , I love to watch his interviews cause he's hilarious too
It’s amazing how the most memorable and hilarious sitcom characters are so similar to the actors who portray them. Being the funny guy is every bit matthew’s thing as it was Chandlers.

Well, generally producers and studio execs are not going to cast sullen, morose-looking actors in lighthearted, funny roles.
He said in an interview that he knew he'd ace the audition for Chandler because it was HIM
Apparently him and his friends used to bully and pick on Justin Trudeau in school. That is absolutely heroic of them. Matthew Perry is a good man and a Canadian patriot for doing that to Justin in his youth.
actually it's Miss Chanandeler Bong
Let me Eat cake We steal that TV guide every week!
“I knew It!”
Just watched this episode today
YNWA brother!
Read his book Friends, Lover and the Big Thing. I was skeptical, not a huge Friends or Perry fan, and I'm also a recovering drug&alcohol addict myself, so celebs telling their sob stories didn't appeal, but it was recommended by my trusted sister. It's great. Humour, humility, honesty and some really great narrative about his life.
Definitely tells how the compulsion to use keeps tripping you over and over. The “Big Lie” we continue to listen to ourselves tell over and over.
Could you 'BE' more Chandler than this???
when i see comments like theese im very confused, he fucking played the characther, did you expected to come here and say , could this be more like al bundy? i dont know...idiot
And I always read these in the character's voice ;-)
He said Chandler was him.. he coached his friends trying out for it. But as fate would have it.. he got that role.
Look, Chandler can finally grow facial hair
“ I can grow a mustache !”
Well in the show he did grow a goatie, several times, so....
@@octo6829he said when he had a goatie, he was on pills really bad
His mind works so fast, he’s brilliant. Most folks who are alcoholics have above average intelligence. He was always my favorite “friend” also.
That’s the thing ! I thought that drugs destroy brain cells …
I really got angry when he told him you will never get married properly he was the reason why Matt never stopped drinking and talking drugs . Nobody could ever tell you what your life is going to be . Live it until the end and always be positive . RIP Matt you deserved more from this world
So true.
yeah, after reading that he faced loneliness all his life and sought acceptance in the eyes of anyone who'd offer their gaze, I am sure that comment hit him hard :(
I know. I am 40 years old and never been married. I do have a boyfriend though but I have never been married,
He also toldMatthew in a more recent interview about a year ago that he did drugs and Matt said do you have any on you?
Wtf are you talking about? He was sober for years
I still watch friends every night before bed and still laugh every time.
He's never been married!? Who wouldn't wanna marry him! I will Chandler! I do.
maybe chandler's scared of commitment again lol
I definitely want to marry a guy like him. I think Matthew will definitely get married someday. He'll make a great husband. Very funny, sweet, nice, and loving. GOD BLESS.
he dated Lizzy Caplan i think 10-15 years younger than him for 7 years and then they broke off
@@yankeegirl3380 Cuz you know him so well from seeing him on tv 🙄
Oh yeah.. how can he not be married ? Being married to a drug addict with depression is a real catch 🙄
Just heard the news - what a man. RIP
RIP Matthew
Out of all the friends he will always be my favorite!
He's such a great storyteller. I can't wait to read his autobiography.
Just read it. Not sure why ppl think he's sexist and an a-hole he admits he's not perfect
You mean, his obituary .
Could he be anymore Chandler ??!
sadasdas asdasdas i wish
"Vastly approaching 100" 😂😂😂😂 he has got sooo soooo much chandler in him
His book is phenomenal and I highly recommend it.
Me too! I thought it was excellent

He has his problem but, you know, being 40 or 50 it is a huge change for everybody.
You realize it's not his humor, it's the writers'.
@@jamespfitz yes, I think the third sentence I wrote addresses that when I refer to the Chandler character lol
@@ogmarkerhe probably was taking breaks from drugs and alcohol but never stopped
He was one of my favorites
Forever Chandler
He's best at giving plot twists 😂
It's so saddening to hear about Matthew's passing :(
Matthew will be greatly missed!
He tells stories so well
I hate how Bill Maher jokingly shames him like that; that's Chandler Bing man, Mathew Perry deserved better treatment!
Especially now knowing he relapsed not to long after this interview
it's called "a joke"
it's Bill Maher, Matthew knew what he was walking into
@@criticalem and he said he was afraid to come. He knew.
That drinking story is EXACTLY what us alcoholics do. You know you're a drunk if you just nod and go "yup" and are entirely unsurprised by that story!
He's still standing better than he ever did. I love and respect this man so much, people are focused on one thing about him, because we love focusing on flaws, but he readily talks about it so that someone else who is going through what he did may feel validated
So sorry my man.... You were perfection & didn't realize it... ❤
You are GREATLY MISSED. 😢😢💔💔💯🦇🦇🦇
I really love this man
I started watching Friends and yesterday I saw an episode where theyre neighbour dies and Chandler is scared that he will end up alone just like neighbour...
Me too😂
Now this has come true. 💔🥺
People this is 2011. He looked great here but this aint the present
Oh damn
Beautiful sense of humor
He's always my favourite together with Lisa. It's so sad so many years of his life were ruined
Great timing with the delivery of the punch line in that story! Guy's still got it.
Matthew is such a truly deeply charming man.
The honesty is refreshing !

I came back to see this after seeing Matthew perry at the friends interviews... Im scared for him.
Oh, shut up, and go watch Friends reunion.
yeah he mustve relapsed. here he looks good but the reunion interview he looked rough af
He also had a huge pill problem - for one or more seasons of Friends he was hard to watch. He's lucky to be alive and fairly sane.
Brilliant actor
This had to be at least, 6 years ago. Mr. Sunshine got canceled in 2012
You can tell how badly Bill misses drinking by how drunk he gets on his weekly podcast.
Delightful.
They got their outfit from the same closet ....
Yes, the MIB outlet.
They raided the wardrobe at MIB headquarters.
I still love him!
He wasn’t so much matthew perry, but a bottle of 7 and 7 walking around in human form
Love you Matty ❤️
Man just saw him recently, his brain is absolutely fried, this energy is gone, I hope he is doing okay.
Did he start drinking again after this?
He was high here. This is right before his colon blowout. It's a struggle.
Nah this was in 2011, only uploaded in 2018
that mostly harmless Whitty sarcasm is absolutely brilliant.
He was very smart funny sexy and honest about his addiction his book was a real insight into his struggles depression. He has help so many people and will continue to do so with his book if you haven't read it everyone really should.
A friend once, in the same situation, when questioned where he lived while being driven home, told these unknown people from the party he lived by a big lake (in Seattle). He never did figure out how they found his house.
his voice has become soo much better since the last interview I watched of him, he can properly pronounce words again. I`m so glad :)
This is an old video from 2011. That's why you think he sounds better.
