Unkempt Matthew Perry wears baggy shorts, T-shirt on coffee run
Matthew Perry was photographed on a rare coffee run in Los Angeles over the weekend appearing a bit disheveled in baggy clothes.
The “Friends” star, 52, was seen walking out of a Starbucks in Los Feliz, Calif., on Saturday wearing an oversize T-shirt, white basketball shorts and Nike sneakers.
The paparazzi photos were taken in a parking lot. Perry — seemingly unaware of the photogs — walked sternly toward a vehicle holding a Frappuccino in one hand and his phone in the other.

Once inside his friend’s car, the “Fools Rush In” star was seen taking a puff of a cigarette.
Earlier this year, Perry sparked concerns over his health after the actor slurred his speech during a “Friends” reunion promo.
However, a source at the time came to the Hollywood star’s defense, stating that he had just had “an emergency tooth procedure” the day of the shoot.
“He had been in pain, from what we understand, which caused the slurred speech,” they continued. “Obviously no one wants to film after a procedure, but it happened.”
Fans were worried that Perry had once again been battling addiction issues.
The “Serving Sara” star has long been open about his struggle with sobriety, which included rehab stints in 1997, 2001 and 2011, telling BBC Radio 2 in 2016 that he “[doesn’t] remember three years” of “Friends,” “somewhere between Season 3 and 6.”
A source confirmed in May, “Matthew has told those around him that he is sober, and there is no need to worry.”
It was revealed a month later in June that Perry and his fiancée, Molly Hurwitz, had called off their engagement.
The “Odd Couple” star subsequently kept a low profile for a few months — until now.
A rep for Perry did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Wednesday regarding the beloved comedian’s current health status.
In May, “Friends: The Reunion” director Ben Winston called out some of the “unkind” comments directed at Perry.
“People can sometimes just be unkind. I wish they weren’t,” he said, adding of Perry, “I loved working with him.”
