Sales of actor Matthew Perry’s memoir, titled “Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing,” have doubled since his death on October 28, according to information from the American media People. The actor was particularly known for his role in the hit series “Friends”.
After the announcement of his death, the work published in 2022 rose to the top of the bestseller rankings on Amazon.
According to People, sales have increased to reach 2.5 million copies sold to date. In France, the book is in sixth place in sales of “biographies of actors and artists”.
In his memoir, the celebrity talks about the key moments of his life: his love stories, his relationship with the actors of “Friends”, his career, and in particular his battle with drug addiction and alcoholism. “I wanted to share it at a time when I was safe from falling back into the dark side again. I was almost certain that it would help people,” he told People when the work was released.
Matthew Perry revealed that he came close to death at the age of 49 due to his worsening drug addiction. He had spent two weeks in a coma, followed by a five-month hospitalization and a year living with a colostomy bag, following the explosion of his colon due to overconsumption of opioids, according to his statements.
