Charlie Puth’s Heartbreaking Viral Concert Tribute To Matthew Perry Has Fans ‘Bursting Into Tears’

During his Melbourne, Australia concert on October 29th, Charlie Puth paid tribute to the late Matthew Perry who had tragically passed away at the age of 54 the day before. Puth’s emotional medley included his own hit “See You Again” as well as the iconic Friends theme song, which he played on the piano while the audience sang along.

Social media has since been flooded with fans expressing their appreciation for Puth’s touching tribute, with many sharing how “deeply moved” they were by the performance and even “shedding tears.”

After one fan uploaded a video of the live moment to TikTok, others headed to the post’s comment section to share their thoughts. “This is such a beautiful tribute by Charlie for Matthew Perry,” one commented, adding, “hoping his family & friends are doing as ok as they can be after the news.” Another replied: “You’re a class act charlie. Rest in peace Matthew Perry.” Someone else noted: “The transition killed me, can’t stop crying.”

Before beginning his live medley, Puth, 31, said to the crowd at his concert: “I want to dedicate this song to another song and if it makes you think of a person that’s who it’s dedicated to.” He then asked: “Does this mean anything to you?” while playing the opening notes to the Friends anthem as the audience whistled, clapped and cheered.

The clip was also shared to X (formerly Twitter) where fans also commended Puth for his touching tribute to Perry, who was found dead over the weekend at his Pacific Palisades home. “Wow actually crying this is so sweet,” one tweeted regarding Puth’s gesture as another added that it made them “burst into tears.”

Someone else wrote: “Ugh I’m crying. MP was so special. I sincerely hope he rests peacefully.” One other replied: “My love Charlie Puth paid tribute to Matthew Perry at his concert today during his tour and it was beautiful.”
