A lot of fans couldn’t help but notice that something seemed rather off with Matthew Perry during a Friends reunion promo in which he slurred his speech.
Friends Reunion: Matthew Perry’s Slurring Is Because Of Dental Work
Matthew, who is best known for his role as Chandler Bing on the show, at one point talked about taking pieces from the set of Friends as souvenirs. “I stole the cookie jar that had the clock on it,” he said, with a “sh” appearing to be pronounced at the beginning of the phrase.
“Matthew turned up to the reunion [in April] and members of his team said that he had an emergency tooth procedure that day,” one source told Britain’s The Sun. “That was said to impact his wellbeing and also how he was feeling.”
“He had been in pain from what we understand, which caused the slurred speech,” they continued. “Obviously no one wants to film after a procedure, but it happened. The feeling was one of huge sympathy for Matthew, especially in recent days given how people have reacted online. Matthew has told those around him that he is sober, and there is no need to worry.”
The stars of the NBC sitcom, which ran for 10 seasons, will return to the show’s original soundstage on the Warner Bros. lot “for a real-life unscripted celebration of the beloved show.” All six members of the original cast – which includes Matthew Perry, Jennifer Aniston (Rachel), Courteney Cox (Monica), Lisa Kudrow (Phoebe), Matt LeBlanc (Joey) and David Schwimmer (Ross) – are set to take part.
