The whole matter started with a simple war of words between the on-screen couple. But as the verbal fight went on, our Chandler Bing fame lost a bet and became a slave to Cox for 5 months.

How did Matthew Perry lose a bet to Courteney Cox?

The whole incident was shared by Courteney Cox when she appeared in a very old episode of The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. The actress explained everything that happened on the set after she imitated Anthony Michael Hall’s one line from The Breakfast Club. However, Matthew Perry was hellbent on his belief that it was from Weird Science. This led to a whole fiasco on the set.
Chandler and Monica were a hit pair on the show
Weird Science and The Breakfast Club are both Anthony Michael Hall’s movies. This confused the late actor and he was sure that it was not from The Breakfast Club. Courteney Cox elaborated:
“One day I was on the set, and I was sitting around, reciting this line, like, doing this imitation of Anthony Michael Hall. He has this line in a movie. The line is, ‘Chicks cannot hold their smoke, that’s what it is.’ And Matthew Perry walks over to me and very adamantly says, ‘Oh, “Weird Science.”‘ And I said, ‘No, Matthew, that’s “The Breakfast Club.”‘ And he was 100 percent sure that it was ‘Weird Science’ and I was 100 percent sure it was ‘The Breakfast Club.’”
The game turned more fun as the whole team got involved in the debate and the bets kept rising- “More and more crew members got involved in the debate and the stakes kept rising.” However, luck was on Cox’s side as one of The Breakfast Club co-stars Judd Nelson was shooting in a nearby studio. When they went to him for clarification, Matthew Perry lost the bet.

When the host asked about what Courteney Cox won from the bet, she sneezed and rang a bell that was hidden on her couch. And surprising the audience, Matthew Perry appeared with a box of tissues, and the Scream actress confirmed that he was her “Man Slave” for 5 months.

Matthew Perry’s unfortunate death shook the fans as well as his family-like co-stars. The actor was often praised as the Funniest Friend and nobody could endure such a tragic incident. It happened on October 28 when the actor was found unresponsive in his hot tub.

In an interview with Today, one of the directors of FRIENDS, James Burrows stated that the co-stars couldn’t believe how they had lost their dearest friend so soon.
“They were destroyed. It’s a brother dying. I had to have a couple of days to just let it soak in. He was part of a family, and he was the first one to not be part of that family anymore.”
Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer also shared a joint tribute for the late actor and their co-star. It is undoubtedly a great loss and the fans will need a considerable amount of time to let it sink in their mind.
