Actress Brooke Shields has shared some details from the popular series "Friends", including memories with the late actor, Matthew Perry.
The actress recalled her experience as Erika Ford, saying that when she joined the cast on the series, she was amazed at how close the actors were to each other.
"I just wanted them to like me and be funny, but I wasn't part of their team," she said, among other things.
Therefore, to "break the ice" and feel part of the team, Shields decided to imitate a comic move made by Chandler Bing, the character played by Matthew Perry.
He ran from one end of the stage to the other, fell to the floor, and pretended to look down at a woman's feet.
At first, there was silence, but soon Perry and the rest of the cast burst into laughter, Shields noted, adding that her bold move earned her 'approval' from the cast.
"He would run and fall to the ground in front of a girl and pretend to look at her skirt. Today he would be 'cancelled.' I ran so fast from one end of the stage to the other, I fell to the ground and pretended to look at his pants," Shields recalls.
Despite the fact that Shields felt like he was on the floor for a long time before anyone reacted, the courage eventually paid off.
"Suddenly Matthew Perry started laughing and so did everyone else," she recalls.
Afterwards, Matthew asked her where she had learned this scene with such precision, but she simply thanked him.
"As soon as I saw you, I wanted to thank you for giving us so much humor," she replied.
In the aforementioned interview, in addition to her memories of "Friends," Shields promoted, among other things, her new book, "Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old," in which she examines personal issues such as the challenges of aging and their impact on her life.
In the book, she talks about experiences such as a non-consensual "vaginal rejuvenation" procedure that affected her personal life, as well as fertility and relationship issues.
