Middle Age Hollywood

Apparently, Matthew Perry refuses to work too hard at hiding the gray.

Asked if he’d resist covering up any silver streaks, the handsome-as-ever actor, who turned 40 last year, told a Television Critics Association panel while touting his new ABC sitcom, Mr. Sunshine: “I think so, until it doesn’t look [right] … and then I’ll change it. But I’m fine with the fact that some of my hair is gray. I think if it was all gray overnight that would be scary.”

The former Chandler Bing of Friends was equally relaxed about having hit the milestone last Aug. 19, saying, “It just happened a year ago. So, it’s okay.” Still, he’s had to make some lifestyle adjustments in order to stay fit at 40.

“You end up doing stuff like hiking and going to the gym and all those things that you said you’d never do,” Perry admits, adding , “I haven’t played tennis in a while.” Instead, Perry says. “I play Wallyball. Wallyball is volleyball inside of a racquetball court. I play that often.” (The game, also known as rebound volleyball, actually takes it name from “wall” and “volleyball”).
