Matthew Perry And His Fiancée Molly Hurwitz Have Broken Up
Throw on your velvet choker with a cameo pendant from Charlotte Russe, spritz on some Gap Grass, slip into some knock-off Steve Madden platform wedges from the swap meet, and throw up a peace sign whenever you go because it’s the 90s again now that Matthew Perry is in the “news” so much. Matthew, of course, is getting attention for that Friends reunion. Matthew’s name came up again when the director of the reunion, Ben Winston, slapped down tricks for saying that Matthew didn’t look well and was slurring during the reunion. (It’s been reported that Matthew had emergency dental surgery the morning of the reunion taping and let everyone know he’s sober.) I don’t know how people noticed Matthew slurring because I was too busy shaking my head at myself for choosing to watch a Friends reunion that had zero appearances by Morgan Fairchild, Aisha Tyler, and Lauren Tom, but yet had Justin Bieber in it.
And now, 51-year-old Matthew Perry is in the news again and this time it’s because he and his 29-year-old fiancée, Molly Hurwitz, are over. They got engaged during the pandemic, so this could’ve been a “we’re bored of making sourdough all day every day so let’s do something different and get engaged” situation and now they’ve decided they made a mistake. Tale as old as COVID.
Matt LeBlanc’s “Irish Uncle” Posture At The “Friends” Reunion Has Become A Twitter Meme
lf you’re a Friends fan, then you likely watched Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe get even richer. We were teased with moments from the Friends reunion where David Schwimmer and Jennifer Aniston admit they had crushes on each other, Lady Gaga sang “Smelly Cat” with Lisa Kudrow, and more arbitrary celebrity cameos than the number of times Joey asked, “How you doin?” through the show’s 10 season run. But even though they’re a six-person team, there were two friends who got a lot of attention on social media after Friends: The Reunion premiered. One was good, one was not as good. The internet had a great time talking about Matt LeBlanc’s slow metamorphosis into an Irish uncle, and also, a lot of people wanted to discuss Matthew Perry’s health.
Jennifer Aniston And David Schwimmer Admitted They Had A Crush On Each Other, And Other Moments From The “Friends” Reunion Special
The reviews for the Friends reunion special are in, and well, it certainly happened. The whole gang was there: Matthew Perry, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer. And as we saw in the trailer, they sat on a couch in front of the Friends fountain, and host James Corden was there to “toss softballs at the cast and cackle hysterically at mundane gossip” which contributed “to the perception of ‘Friends’ as shallow and superficial,” per Indiewire.
Esquire called James “a giant toddler in a velvet suit” and NPR said he was in “soul-sucking phone-it-in mode” and “comes off as a man reading off cards for money.” But hey, at least Lady Gaga was there with a gospel choir, (4 of whom were Black!) to sing Smelly Cat with Lisa, and special guest Justin Bieber didn’t have a speaking part. So it wasn’t all bad! Overall, the Friends reunion earned double FF on its report card. Which stands for Friends Forever — even though Lisa and Courteney both made it absolutely crystal clear that this would never, ever, ever happen again.
The “Friends” Reunion Is Nigh And Here’s The Trailer
I don’t know about you, but I am so ready for The One I Accidentally Pushed Play On While Scrolling! The long ballyhooed Friends reunion is set to premiere on HBO Max next week, and while I was originally going to call it The One Nobody Asked For, that’s not even remotely accurate. In fact, so many people asked for this that HBO reportedly ponied up as much as $4 million per Friend to get them all on board. And now there’s a trailer. You made Matthew Perry log off of Raya and find a clean shirt. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!
Matthew Perry Got Got By A 19-Year-Old He Met On Raya Who Shared Their Video Chat On TikTok
It’s a bad week to be a middle-aged celebrity horndog on Raya. First Ben Affleck got put on blast when a 32-year-old-woman who unmatched him shared a video of him pleading “why?!?”, and now Matthew Perry has been caught with his proverbial pants down by a 19-year-old TikToker named Kate Haralson who thought it would be “funny” to record and share a FaceTime video of her and Matthew chatting after she matched with him on Raya. At least the recipient of Ben’s attention had the relative maturity to poke fun at herself (or at least pretend that’s what she was doing). But unfortunately for Matthew, Kate is in possession of all the wisdom and maturity you’d expect from a 19-year-old TikToker. But before we go canceling Friends or something, please know that Matt didn’t do or say anything overtly sexual. He even joked about being older than her dad. Wait, what am I saying? Friends has already been canceled, like, before Kate was even born! Gross.
The Cast Of “Friends” Could Make As Much As $4 Million Each For The Reunion Special
Call it The One Where We Get Millions Of Dollars To Sit In A Room For An Hour because that’s basically what’s going to happen on the next episode of Friends. According to Deadline, Matthew Perry joining Instagram was the seventh seal of the Friendpocalypse and the details of the long-rumored, hour-long, unscripted reunion special to air on HBO Max, have been revealed. Deadline says that a deal has all but been finalized with all six Friends, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc and Matthew Perry, “following tough negotiations.” Which I take to mean that each Friend’s agent repeatedly responded to offers with a laughing face emoji until finally responding with a money mouth face emoji. Each Friend reportedly “will be paid in the $3 million-$4 million range.” *upside down face emoji*
