Matthew Perry Joins Instagram, Gets Over 4M Followers In Under 24 Hours, Jennifer Aniston And Lisa Kudrow Respond

If you’re anything like me, you’ve seen every episode of Friends about 20 times. You quote the show every chance you get (like when someone tries stealing your fries, you shout “Joey doesn’t share food). When you find someone who hasn’t seen the show, you immediately lend them your entire DVD collection. And Friends is your go-to TV show when you’re feeling a little blue and when you have nothing to do.

Friends fans are rejoicing that Matthew Perry, who played the awkward but loveable Chandler Bing, has finally joined Instagram! And do you know how many people love Matt? Well, he got over 4 million Instagram followers in under a single day. [Does Chandler’s weird victory dance and shouts ‘Woopah!’]

Jennifer Aniston, who played the stylish and spoiled Rachel Green on the show, and Lisa Kudrow (who starred as the weirdly wonderful Phoebe Buffay) welcomed Matt by posting wholesome pictures of them together. Scroll down and take a look.

And now we’re Instagram FRIENDS too. HI INSTAGRAM 👋🏻

Jennifer joined Instagram not too long ago, too. She created her account in October 2019 and got a whopping 6 million followers in under a day.

Chandler’s an incredibly easy character to adore. But fans of the series will have no doubt noticed that Matt’s performance suffered quite a bit in some of the seasons.

According to the actor, because of his addiction issues, he doesn’t remember 3 years of his time on Friends: “Somewhere between seasons 3 and 6.” However, Matt eventually overcame his addiction to drugs and alcohol and became more like his old self whom we all know and love.

Dear Pandas, let us know what you think of Matthew’s first posts on Instagram and share your thoughts about Jennifer and Lisa’s witty welcome. We’re also curious to know how much you love Friends! Do you remember Chandler’s full job title? And, last but not least, do you think Ross and Rachel were on a break or not?

People were overjoyed that Matthew created an Instagram account

Storytelling, journalism, and art are a core part of who I am. I've been writing and drawing ever since I could walk—there is nothing else I'd rather do. My formal education, however, is focused on politics, philosophy, and economics because I've always been curious about the gap between the ideal and the real. At work, I'm a Senior Writer and I cover a broad range of topics that I'm passionate about: from psychology and changes in work culture to healthy living, relationships, and design. In my spare time, I'm an avid hiker and reader, enjoy writing short stories, and love to doodle. I thrive when I'm outdoors, going on small adventures in nature. However, you can also find me enjoying a big mug of coffee with a good book (or ten) and entertaining friends with fantasy tabletop games and sci-fi movies.
