Perry in one of the episodes of his new memoir involved Keanu Reeves as it has expressed the former’s hatred for the latter. In one of the segments, he opened up about his friendship with the late actor River Phoenix, who passed away in 1993.

He wrote,

“River was a beautiful man, inside and out — too beautiful for this world, it turned out. It always seems to be the really talented guys who go down, Why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Keanu Reeves still walks among us?”

He had a breakdown on facing another one of his friends lose their life due to a drug overdose. Referring to the death of Chris Farley in 1997, the 17 Again actor wrote, “I punched a hole through Jennifer Aniston’s dressing room wall when I found out. Keanu Reeves walks among us.”

Due to his rather harsh comments, he faced criticism regarding the same. He then issued an apology explaining that he too is a fan of Reeves adding that he “should have used” his name instead.

Despite the surprising events the actor unfolded, the book also opened up about his life struggle with addiction.
