Charlie Sheen claimed he recorded the recurrence of Matthew Perry a year before the late actor’s fatal overdose.
The “Two and a half men” alumni insisted in an interview with Piers Morgan on Tuesday that Perry was “can see” abused when promoting his 2022 memoir.
“I can say he wasn’t talking about all the books about drinking and recovery,” the Emmy nominee, 60, claimed that “Pia Morgan is uncensored.”
Sheen explained that she “really feels bad” for Perry after hearing the audiobook “Friends, Lover, and Big Bad Things.”
“When I heard a bit of a snippet, he didn’t have a concrete, laser-centric dictionary that was perfect and concrete, as if he was always delivering comedies or doing something on the level he did,” recalled the Golden Globe winner.
“I didn’t know Matthew well,” Sheen claimed, “I heard of a man who was disabled.”
Perry released his book in November 2022 and was found dead in a hot tub in a Los Angeles home the following October.
His cause of death was an overdose of ketamine.
Three weeks before Perry passed away, Sheen read the candid book of the “17 Again” star, which includes a line along the line “F-K Charlie Sheen. I’ll become famous one day.”
Sheen admitted that he “wanted to reach out” to talk about the memoirs, but did not do so before Perry’s death.
“I read his book, I read it in a day, and I loved it,” he gushed out. “And I’m so proud of him and inspired by it… I could feel that prison that he put himself in.”
Earlier this month, the scene shared similar feelings as Page 6, sharing “a common foundation” and “a deeper truth” that she shared with “an intactile veteran.”
The author of “Sheen’s Book,” which released his memoirs last week, said, “I was calling him for coffee and more. Unfortunately, I didn’t.”
Elsewhere in the interview, the “Red Dawn” star shared with us that he never tried the drug that killed Perry while fighting his addiction.
“I’ve never done that,” Sheen said. “I knew a few people, so I saw it. It wasn’t the colour I knew I would look good.”
Sheen noted that Perry attended a support group that he had run several times. And when the “Anger Management” alumni met his third wife, Brooke Mueller, the duo joined the party together.
The 48-year-old actress was caught up in an investigation into Perry’s death due to her connections with those charged with selling ketamine to a Golden Globe candidate.
As of September 2024, Mueller was calm for nine months.
