I want to note, before I get any comments from people upset with me, my entire review is on the audiobook, not the message in the book and it’s not meant to be commentary on Matthew Perry or his life. I happily started listening and my first thought was, “Did Matthew Perry have a stroke?” Obviously, I don’t keep up with pop culture and I didn’t watch the Friends reunion, so I was shocked when I expected Chandler Bing and didn’t get it. Finally I used my Audible credit to get it. Apparently everyone else really likes him too, because I waited, and waited, and waited. And I really like Matthew Perry, so I waited for it from my library. So yes, Perry would have been wise just to use his own name rather than attempt to besmirch such a beloved Hollywood A-lister.I was going to buy this to read, but a good friend insisted that I need to listen to it. I should have used my own name instead.' Reeves has seen a resurgence in his career over the last few years thanks to his leading role in the John Wick franchise, with the actor revealing time and again what a genuinely kind-hearted, caring person he is when not on screen. 'I'm actually a big fan of Keanu,” he said. Perry has since apologized for the comments following major backlash online. Keanu Reeves walks among us,” the excerpt reads. “I punched a hole through Jennifer Aniston’s dressing room wall when I found out. If that were not already bad and unnecessary enough, the Friends star brings Reeves into the conversation again later on when explaining how he reacted to the death of comedy legend Chris Farley. It always seems to be the really talented guys who go down,' he said. “River was a beautiful man inside and out and too beautiful for this world, it turned out. The apparent issue that the sitcom star has with Reeves was first unveiled thanks to Perry’s recent memoir, Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, in which he questions, 'why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Keanu Reeves still walks among us?' Perry continues, making a jibe at Reeves’ acting talents. This mysterious insider seemingly reveals what we had all assumed - that Matthew Perry has no reason to show a dislike for Keanu Reeves. It’s kind of backfired on Matthew anyway, which is why he had to apologize.”

“Keanu thought the comments came out of left field.

While Reeves has not said anything publicly about the comments, sources close to the actor have revealed via Us Weekly that the action star felt that Perry’s remarks came out of “left field.” John Wick star Keanu Reeves was reportedly taken aback by the recent comments made by Friends star Matthew Perry in his memoir.
