Sophie Turner Tried To Get Matthew Perry To Ask Her Out

Just like all of us, Sophie Turner is a big fan of Friends - and even tried to get one of the stars to ask her out a few years ago.

In a #BehindTheTweet feature, the 23-year-old Dark Phoenix star shared the funny story behind an old tweet of hers from 2016 which revealed that Matthew Perry was once in rehearsals in her hometown for a play.

“Holy balls. Chanandler Bong [sic] himself is rehearsing his play right next to my home,” she had written.

Now, Sophie is opening up about what went down after she posted it.

“I would walk around the corner every day to go to my local Budgens, which is a great little supermarket, and I would walk around the corner every day and I would see Matthew Perry smoking a cigarette,” Sophie remembered. “And I bought a lighter from Budgens so that I could walk up to him and offer to light his cigarette.”

However, it didn’t work out in her favor, but she was still hoping that Matthew would see the tweet.

“That was just embarrassing. I thought he might see this tweet,” she admitted. “Then, I don’t know, reach out to me, and ask me on a date or something, but he didn’t.”
