The Friends actor Matthew Perry made a statement saying he misspoke about his fellow actor, Keanu Reeves.
In his upcoming memoir Friends, Lovers and The Big Terrible Thing he wrote, “River was a beautiful man, inside and out — too beautiful for this world, it turned out. It always seems to be the really talented guys who go down. Why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Reeves still walks among us?”
After being questioned why he passed a negative comment for Reeves he said, “I’m actually a big fan of Keanu. I just chose a random name, my mistake. I apologize. I should have used my own name instead.”
He again mentioned Reeves in his upcoming book including the death of comedian Chris Farley, “His disease had progressed faster than mine had. (Plus, I had a healthy fear of the word ‘heroin,’ a fear we did not share),” Perry writes. “I punched a hole through Jennifer Aniston‘s dressing room wall when I found out. Keanu Reeves walks among us.”
This statement caused a stir in social media fans, and celebrities of Reeves came to support him.
Perry’s memoir will be available from Nov 1. His memoir tells about the active disease of alcoholism and addiction issues.
