Matthew Perry received an emotional in memoriam tribute at Emmys 2024.
The Television Academy honored the late “Friends” star with a performance of the theme song, “I’ll Be There for You,” from Charlie Puth.
A known “Friends” fan, Puth previously performed the iconic song during a concert in Australia just days after Perry’s death.
Perry died on Oct. 28, 2023, after being found unconscious in his pool. He was 54.
The Los Angeles County Coroner later announced that the “Whole Nine Yards” actor died from the acute effects of ketamine.
The autopsy report also listed drowning, coronary artery disease and effects of buprenorphine, a synthetic opioid used to treat addiction, as well as other factors that contributed to his death.
Perry — who was clean from drugs for 19 months — was on “ketamine infusion therapy” at the time of his passing, according to the autopsy. His last treatment occurred a week and a half before his death.
