Conan O'Brien admits he was jealous of Friends star Matthew Perry for the first time and names the reason

For the first time, American comedian Conan O'Brien revealed that he had long been jealous of Friends star Matthew Perry, who died at the age of 54. The TV presenter admitted that the reason for this feeling was his ex-girlfriend Lisa Kudrow's positive impression of the actor.

According to the man, his then-girlfriend was delighted with the actor's humor and did not hesitate to talk about it, Us Weekly writes. The screenwriter noted that he had a strong sense of jealousy because he was sure that his jokes could make his beloved laugh much better.

Conan O'Brien shared an interesting story that took place during his relationship with Lisa Kudrow. According to the man, the American actress once called him to tell about the talented Matthew, who, in her opinion, was very funny. The 61-year-old comedian began to envy the artist because he made a positive impression on his girlfriend.

"And you said, 'He's so funny'. It brought out a part of me that was very jealous," the celebrity shared his feelings during a joint interview with Lisa Kudrow.

Now Conan O'Brien can undoubtedly say that the character of the Friends series Chandler Bing, played by Matthew Perry, had an impeccable comic timing.

"You just laugh all day, mostly between scenes, because these are funny people. Especially someone like Matthew, whose goal was was to make anyone laugh in real life every day as much as possible. That's why we always laughed so hard that tears were streaming down our faces," Lisa Kudrow described her late colleague.
