LOS ANGELES, United States - Shock over the sudden death of "Friends" star Matthew Perry rippled through Hollywood and beyond Sunday, as the beloved sitcom's creators paid tribute to the actor and fans gathered outside the New York apartment building featured on the show.
Perry had battled addiction and serious health problems for years, but the sudden death of a man who delivered laughter into millions of homes was a gut-punch for those who knew him -- or who felt like they did. "We are shocked and deeply, deeply saddened... It still seems impossible," they said in the statement sent to AFP.
"I just wanted to pay my respects," said 26-year-old Canadian visitor Taylor Lanthier, who said Perry had "had a very impactful role in my life and always has given me tons of laughs." "I have mostly been sober since 2001," he wrote, "save for about sixty or seventy little mishaps over the years."
