The 53-year-old actor said he was ‘immediately taken’ by Aniston during their first meeting in an excerpt from his memoir, Friends, Lovers and the Big Terrible Thing.
Perry said he called up Aniston before they started filming Friends in a bid to impress her with two acting roles he had booked – but she was allegedly left unimpressed.
He wrote in the book: ‘It was clear that this made her think I liked her too much, or in the wrong kind of way.’

He then asked her out, with the beauty suggesting they stay friends instead, with Perry responding: ‘[We] can’t be friends!’
The two actors were then brought together for their first Friends table read in 1994, with Perry saying: ‘We were able to sail right past the past and focus on the fact that we had both gotten the best job Hollywood had to offer.’
Perry said he continued to be attracted to Jennifer as they filmed the show, and was ‘frequently overanalyzing’ every conversation they had – but that he slowly got over her due to the star’s ‘deafening lack of interest.’

Over the past few weeks, Perry has been been getting tons of headlines for being linked to these beautiful women.
So it is no wonder the new author said he was ‘nervous’ for his book to come out on Tuesday.
Perry was showing off the fresh-out-of-the-box memoir on social media on Friday.

All week he has been dishing on the ladies.
Most shocking was when Perry claimed he made out with Valerie Bertinelli when her husband Eddie Van Halen was passed out.
Bertinelli and Perry were working together on the TV show Sydney in 1990.
The actor recently sat down for a forthcoming interview with Diane Sawyer in which he discussed the importance of having friends and a social safety net to combat his years-long struggle with addiction.

And Perry also said that he broke up with Roberts because he felt he was not ‘enough’ for her and the Oscar-winning star would eventually dump him.
The actor shared that he was set up with Cameron Diaz after she split from Justin Timberlake in 2007.
But when he came face to face the star – who is now 50 – she got stoned and showed little interest in him before punching him in the face by accident.

Recently, The Bounty Hunter actress has been on set filming season three of The Morning Show in New York with her co-stars, Reese Witherspoon, 46, and Jon Hamm, 51.
Witherspoon plays a relatively new co-anchor Bradley Jackson who, with Aniston’s character Alex Levy, helped expose a toxic workplace culture at the television network where they worked in season one.
Critically acclaimed actor Hamm from Mad Men joins the series in season three as corporate titan Paul Marks, who has his sights set on the American UBA network.
The award-winning series addressed controversial issues such as Me Too in season one; and race, ethnicity, cancel culture, mental health, and discrimination in season two.
Since the premiere in 2019, Apple TV+ drama series The Morning Show has won a Screen Actors Guild Award, and earned nominations for a Primetime Emmy Award and two Golden Globes.
