Matthew Perry’s Memoir Overtakes Britney Spears’ As Amazon Bestseller Amid Sudden Death

“The Woman In Me,” the memoir released by pop star Britney Spears on Tuesday, October 24, is no longer the best-selling memoir on Amazon following the death of “Friends” star Matthew Perry.

The beloved actor, best known for his role as Chandler Bing on the NBC television sitcom from 1994 to 2004, died over the weekend after being found unresponsive in his hot tub. The official cause of death has yet to be released as famous fans and friends took to social media to share their condolences and reflect on the late actor’s life.

The actress’ autobiography “Friends, Lovers, and The Big Terrible Thing” has become a bestseller almost exactly a year after its release, replacing “The Woman In Me” at the top of Amazon’s charts. Perry’s memoir chronicles not only her time on “Friends” but also her long struggle with addiction.

In his book, Perry admits that he has spent over $9 million trying to get sober and claims that he has attended over six thousand AA meetings. He said that he went to rehab fifteen times and detoxed on 65 different occasions, as per the Daily Mail.

In the book’s prologue, Perry wrote, “I should have died,” adding, “My mind wanted to kill me, and I knew it. I was always filled with a lurking loneliness, a longing, clinging to the notion that something outside of myself would fix me.”

On the set of his movie “Fools Rush In,” Perry was hospitalized from a jet ski accident and later became addicted to Vicodin. He claims that he started taking 55 Vicodin pills a day and saw his weight drop to 128 pounds during the height of his addiction. His battle with addiction didn’t just take a toll on his mental health. In 2000, he was hospitalized with pancreatitis. In 2018, his colon ruptured.

During an interview for her book, Perry told Diane Sawyer that doctors told her family that she “had a 2 percent chance of living.”

“I was put on something called an ECMO machine, which does all the breathing for your heart and lungs. And that’s called Hail Mary. No one survived that,” he explained, adding that he was in a coma for two weeks. He spent five months in hospital and then used a colostomy bag for nine months. The actor admitted that he was only conscious for one of the ten seasons of “Friends” and described his cast members as “understanding” and “patient” in his autobiography.

In 2021, a year before her memoir was released, she said she committed to living a healthier lifestyle. In an interview with People magazine, Perry reflected on the writing of the book. “It was all gone from me,” he recalls. “The book was not difficult to write. It’s a harder thing to read, because you go, ‘Wow, this is a terrible story.’ But there’s a sense of humor running through it.”

On Tuesday, October 24, 2023, pop star Britney Spears released her memoir, “The Woman In Me.” In an interview with People magazine a week before her book’s release, the “Toxic” singer told the publication that she’s a “simple girl” who likes to spend her free time playing with her dog and watching “Friends.”

“I really love people. I love God, I still love my family and close friends. I like tea parties and dinner parties. My friend Cade [Hudson] invited me to dinner where I met the most creative people I admire who make me laugh,” he said, referring to his old manager. The Pop princess explained that she is still “learning this new freedom” and admitted that it can be “challenging at times” to learn her limits. Even so, he likes to spend his free time “playing with my dog [or] watch the episode Friends and belly laughs.”

RIP Matthew Perry.
