COULD WE BE ANY MORE INSENSITIVE TOWARDS MATTHEW PERRY? ‘Friends’ aired from 1994 to 2004. That’s the image we captured in our minds when the six cast members, namely Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Matthew Perry and Matt LeBlanc, bowed out. Now, 17 years later, even though the cast returned for the much-hyped reunion last week, surely we could not expect time to freeze without so much as a wrinkle on their faces? The memes that have erupted over Matt LeBlanc and his ‘dad bod’ are plain mean, while Perry remains at the centre of a media storm with people accusing him of turning up drunk or calling him a victim of substance abuse. A source told the media that he appeared at the reunion following an emergency dental procedure, which caused the slurred speech. Irrespective of the truth, we can all show a little more sensitivity.
