Yes. Not remotely interested in man with moobs and total lack of engagement with reality. Move along.

Definitely sounds blown out of proportion if this is all there is to it.

Also I had completely forgotten about his movie with River Phoenix! I used to love A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon. We had it on VHS.

Seems like a lesser Ferris Bueller? Meredith Salinger though is a coup.

Hardly.

This. Plus he looks like absolute shit. If he had 9 million to spend on getting sober, I think he can pony up 500k to fix his face and body.

I’m sure you look like a real princess.

Well, I haven't spent the past 20 years abusing drugs and alcohol, so I at least look healthy.

Is he out of money? Is this why he’s writing this?

Definitely blown out of proportion: Keanu is taciturn, which does not mean he's dumb. Matthew is talking about the choice of roles.

Maybe because Reeves isn’t a drug addict???

I feel sorry for him. Celebrity is all he knows. Agree this all seems a bit narcissistic, and I can’t imagine anyone being interested in this in 2022.

I was half tempted to see him speak at the Warner Theater next month as a huge Friends fan and have always loved Chandler, but I kind of just want to think of him as Chandler on Friends and leave it at that. I think it's good that he is speaking out about his addiction troubles--maybe it will help someone else. He seems like a genuinely nice guy

I think he blames Keanu for River’s death. And maybe he blames Keanu for his own addiction?

I think Keanu might actually blame himself. He led a weird life following the OD.

Chandler is my favorite Friends character (second favorite: Phoebe). The others are so annoying. I do not get the impression that Matthew Perry was/is a jerk in real life. Mentally ill with addiction, certainly. But sincere and genuine, yes.

And I don't care at all that he looks ugly.

PP again. His interview with Diane Sawyer airs tomorrow night. I usually don't watch celebrity interviews, but I'm interested to hear what he has to say. He was a mess at the FRIENDS reunion.
