Chris Evans’ First Encounter with Matthew Perry

Chris Evans shared on Chris Evans Breakfast Show (via Virgin Radio UK) that his encounter with Matthew Perry was nothing short of charming. It happened at The Coffee Bean on Sunset Boulevard, where Evans was with his then-partner, Billie Piper. 

They were hoping for a peaceful coffee morning, but it got noisy with paparazzi tagging along. As luck would have it, Perry was sitting just a few tables away. The photographers were trailing Evans and Piper because they were house-hunting in UK.

Somehow, they had figured this out, so when the (now-ex) couple went for coffee, the paps followed them. Perry, noticing the commotion, decided to break the ice. With newspaper in hand, he looked over and said:

I’m terribly sorry about this. They’ll be gone in a moment.

The conversation didn’t end there. Perry continued, “Are they here for you?” When Evans replied, “We think they might be,” Perry’s response was, “Who are you?!” To which the latter playfully responded, “It doesn’t matter!” Our Chandler Bing then quipped, “Well, this makes a goddamn change!” Yep, it’s the classic Perry humor!

The encounter was a blend of Perry’s usual wit and a dose of unexpected camaraderie. It’s moments like these that turn ordinary coffee breaks into a brew-tiful memory!

Chris Evans’ Unexpected House Tour with Another Hollywood’s Finest

It’s again the story of Chris Evans’ house-hunting adventure, but this time the location isn’t in the UK—it’s in LA. And it took an even more star-studded turn.

While inspecting a property, Evans was met with an unexpected twist: the real estate agent had arranged for Courteney Cox, Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt, and David Arquette to view the same house.

To blend in, Evans decided to hide in the bedroom. Surprise! Pitt ended up strolling right into that very room. With both stars sporting similar bucket hats, they had a quick, memorable chat.

Pitt said a casual “Hi dude,” and Evans responded in kind. Before heading off, the 60-year-old added, “Stay cool.” It was a quick exchange, but it sprinkled a bit of Hollywood sparkle on Evans’ house-hunting adventure!
