No matter his past, 54 is too early.
I hope for the sake of the people that love him that it was an accident.
Not a surprise. He had too many demons to deal with. RIP.
Enjoyed him in Almost Heroes with Chris Farley and in The Whole Nine Yards.
Sad to see this. Seemed like he’d really turned his life around and had a great story of recovery to share with the world.
Nobody drowns in a jacuzzi without drugs or alcohol involved, unless he had a stroke.
I have a friend whose ex was a heroin addict. He had been clean for almost 20 years. He literally dropped dead last week. The docs said the long term heart damage made it not only possible, but likely to happen.
Drugs do bad things for a long time.
Why is never someone I want? “Hillary Clinton Dead After Apparent Drowning” I can only keep the champagne ready for a certain amount of time.
Because money only increases the magnitude of one’s problems, in many instances.
The day that bitch kicks the bucket is the day I begin a year long celebration.
Terribly sad and so young. He was funny and lovable as Chandler, and that was one of the perfect TV casts ever. RIP, Matthew Perry.
More money. More problems.
Sad to hear. Chandler Bing was my favorite character.
Died suddenly??
I find it weird when celebs die who are a lot younger than me. When I was young they were all older than I was. Not anymore.
You answered your own question.
Oh hell no. He was wasted. Guaranteed. Poor guy has struggled with opiates and booze for decades.
Not just the drugs but what the dealers cut the drugs with. Everything from baby powder to laundry detergent and as we have seen today, fentanyl which is killing hundreds of thousands of users.
A few years ago when I was living in New York city, the building next to me a father and his son decided to step out in the hallway to do cocaine during a birthday party. Both of them dropped dead right in the hallway as the cocaine was cut with fentanyl. Gee what a dad! I doubt they did “drop dead” as the papers said. Most likely they found out they could no longer breathe and suffocated to death
Take solace in the fact when we were young the celebs were John Wayne, Chuck Heston, and Frank Sinatra. Now they’re mostly douchebags.
