Matthew Perry on Tonight Show with Jay Leno Thursday

Just in case anybody hadn't yet heard, Matthew Perry will be a guest on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno this Thursday 6/08, and was on Entertainment Tonight this evening. He was at the premier of Gone In 60 Seconds and talked for a few minutes about his accident and the tabloid reports. He looked great! Very trim and healthy.

Great interview! Matthew was hilarious (the Lakers story killed me, and the Speedos joke!!!, stop!!!), and please - let the liver rumors end - he is obviously doing just fine. I am so happy for him. I hate to see someone so promising losing their health, but he looks just great!!! Lean, in shape, and in ~great~ spirits. And he put Jay in his place a couple times, too. Good for him!

I am so glad that Matthew was able to come on one of the talk shows to talk about the bogus stories that surrounded his life for over a month.

Let's put this to rest finally and move on. Bravo, Matthew.

Does anyone know when the season finale was filmed? I haven't seen Matthew (on TV of course) since then and I see that everyone says he's lost weight and looks great. I'm wondering how long it took him to lose the weight.

I don't know about the finale, but he was on Rosie & Dateline NBC back in April and he looked the same as he did in the last few episodes. So he's lost it in about a month and a half.

Thanks for the info. I don't like to speculate (or start more gossip on this subject, I'm just glad he's healthy and really hope that these so-called health crises don't stop him from getting work) but it seems like a very short time to lose that amount of weight (15-20 lbs in two months).

Thanks again for the info.

That's only 2-3 pounds a week, a healthy pace. One thing I've noticed, though...he pretty much avoids specifically mentioning anything about his stomach or pancreas. He has not yet ~specifically~ rebutted those rumors. He's only makes jokes about the extremes the tabloids have gone to, and says he "feels fine." I hope Ted Casablanca isn't right (Wendy's post has a link to his article).

I think that he is fine. He looked healthier than he has in months, and his sense of humor is back, which people have a tendency to lose when they don't feel good. I think this shows that he's fine and maybe his stomach and pancreas aren't 100%, but I don't think it is nearly as bad as the tabloids make it out to be.

exactly.

Yes I was noticing that too, kinda disappointed.

What I got out of it was he was saying he's fine and not to worry he even said "I've never felt better"

So if something is wrong, pancreatis , he is doing fine, he looks great, and is definitly up and about being hilarious, and doesn't look sick at all.

In other words.. DON'T WORRY..

the weight.

I don't know the exact dates--someone else might (Larissa?)--but it would have been around the first or second week in April. He looks to have dropped about 15-20 pounds, easy, since then (maybe more, I don't know, I'm not a good judge). He probably lost a lot in the hospital--for all we know, he was fed through an IV for two weeks.

I know I know!!

He knew how to handle Jay really well!!
