Default Matthew Perry has passed away, age 54

Quote:
“Friends” star Matthew Perry died of an apparent drowning on Saturday, TMZ reported.

He was 54 years old.

The actor was found Saturday at a home in the Los Angeles area, law enforcement sources told the outlet.

First responders had received a call to the property for a person suffering cardiac arrest.

Perry rose to fame playing fan-favorite Chandler for 10 seasons on the immensely popular ’90s Sitcom “Friends.”

He had a long history of drug and alcohol abuse, which he has been candid about since getting sober, opening up about his addictions in a memoir he published last year.

Jeez that's insane to me. I haven't properly watched Friends in years and tbh had kind of dismissed it as younger me having bad taste in comedy, but yeah this actually leaves me kind of sad. Chandler dead. Unreal.

From what I've read he was apparently found in a jacuzzi, possible heart attack (which may not have been fatal, which is why cause of death would be drowning).

Very sad, 54 is no age at all really.

Never! I'm really shocked and upset to hear this. A tragedy.

RIP Matthew, God bless. You were truly loved.

the friends show was an integral part of many peoples lives for years and is probably the most successful sitcom ever. He had his demons for sure, but some of his comedic delivery was genius

…there are some celebrity deaths that totally stun you, so devastating for all who knew and loved him…


…it’s said that the last post that he shared in social media was a photo of himself in a pool, with the words….

“Oh, so warm water swirling around makes you feel good? I’m Mattman,” said the caption.


…one of his own quotes from his book….

“If I had to do it all over again, would I still audition for Friends? You bet your ass I would. Would I drink again? You bet your ass I would. If I didn’t have alcohol to soothe my nerves and help me have fun, I would have leaped off a tall building sometime in my twenties.”

…maybe not a long life but a life lived his way…

Oh my God. I just woke up to a message from my friend saying Chandler and just that, I thought they had sent a weird drunk text.

Absolutely heartbroken. No other shows lifted my mood more than Friends when I was depressed. I literally recite every line. Friends was everything. How can I watch the show now. Oh thank you Matthew Perry I'll love you forever.

I just cannot bring myself to buy his book. There is no way I want to watch friends scenes thinking "oh during this scene he was badly hungover or in terrible pain. " Nope no sirry. Chandler will always be my sarcasm king second to none, the best.
