Friends star rushed to hospital

"Matthew Perry has been rushed to the hospital after suffering a series of severe drug-induced seizures. The Friends actor, who played Chandler Bing in the hit US television series, was admitted under a false name to Los Angeles' UCLA hospital after a horrific adverse reaction to prescription drugs on Wednesday. Emergency tests on the star revealed traces of barbiturates, normally prescribed to aid sleep or calm anxiety. Perry has a history of prescription drug addiction and has been in and out of rehab since 1997. His spokeswoman says, "His doctor wanted him in the hospital where they could observe his condition. But he's fine."

Would never have thought of Chandler as a drug addict!

Didn't you know about the whole thing in the mid 90s, when Chandler started to look unnaturally thin? Anyway, hope he's alright because I hope for his sake he finds another part to continue his career comedically after Friends...

Yes he was by far the best friend, for comedic value that is.

Nope never knew about his problems though. Infact during friends he always seemed rather "padded"... in some series anyway.

Joey kills his career, Chandler almost kills himself.

Apparently he went on that Atkins diet for a while. I agree though, he was my favourite charcter in Freinds.
