Matthew Perry has seen the error in his ways when it comes to dissing Keanu Reeves. While speaking at the Los Angeles Times Festival of Book on Saturday, the Friends actor vowed to remove Reeves…
. “I pulled his name because I live on the same street. I’ve apologized publicly to him. Any future versions of the book will not have his name in it.” After facing backlash for the comment, Perry issued an apology last October.
“I’m actually a big fan of Keanu,” Perry’s statement reads. “I just chose a random name, my mistake. I apologize. I should have used my own name instead.” In other comments at the book festival, Perry acknowledged the criticism about the lack of diversity on“It was a different time,” he said. “Nobody talked about diversity.” He continued “we were all stupid…diversity is a huge issue. It’s the right thing to do.”
