Hollywood’s iconic actor Matthew Perry, renowned for his role as the sarcastically witty Chandler Bing on the hit television sitcom Friends, is celebrating his 54th birthday today.

Born on August 19, 1969, in Williamstown, Massachusetts, Perry has captivated audiences worldwide with his comedic genius and endearing performances.

Perry’s journey to fame culminated in his unforgettable portrayal of Chandler Bing, one of the six central characters on the immensely popular NBC show Friends, which aired from 1994 to 2004.

Alongside his co-stars, he achieved international celebrity status, fulfilling a lifelong dream of recognition and success. “There was steam coming out of my ears, I wanted to be famous so badly,” Perry candidly revealed in a 2002 interview with The New York Times.

The post-Friends era marked a new chapter in Perry’s career. He ventured into directing, making his directorial debut in an episode of the fourth season of the American comedy-drama Scrubs.

As Friends fans await, Matthew Perry’s memoir, titled Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing, provides an intimate glimpse into his life’s most poignant moments. From sharing the depths of the love he lost to recounting his darkest days, Perry opens up about the challenges he faced and the resilience that carried him through. Additionally, he pays tribute to the profound impact of his closest friends, emphasizing the role they played in shaping his journey.

Some of Chandler Bing’s famous quotes from Friends:

Hi, I’m Chandler. I make jokes when I’m uncomfortable.”

“I say more dumb things before 9 a.m. than most people say all day.”

“I’m Not So Good At The Advice. Can I Interest You In A Sarcastic Comment?”

“I’m Hopeless And Awkward And Desperate For Love.”

“I tend to keep talking until somebody stops me.”

“We swallow our feelings, even if it means we’re unhappy forever. Sounds good?”
