While speaking with Entertainment Tonight on Saturday, Michael J. Fox revealed that Matthew Perry quietly helped out his foundation for Parkinson's research when it was just getting off the ground.

After ET's Cassie DiLaura shared with Fox that he was Perry's acting inspiration, the Back to the Future legend opened up about Perry's unspoken act.

Fox told DiLaura that when the Friends cast started making bank, the late actor donated a large sum of money to the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research.

He said:

"I hope this isn’t indiscreet, but when they first made their big sale and were made millionaires for the rest of their lives, he wrote a big fat check to the foundation."
"We were really early on and trying to find our feet, and it was such a vote of confidence."

Fox shared that the gesture was not only extremely generous but also quite discreet.

"And it wasn’t accompanied by any self-aggrandizing or anything."
"He was just like, 'Take it and do your best.' I loved that."

Stephen Colbert Rips CBS For Banning Interview With Texas Democrat Due To FCC Threat

Late-night host Stephen Colbert criticized CBS for attempting to ban him from interviewing Texas Senate candidate James Talarico, and from even mentioning the interview on air, due to threats from Brendan Carr, the chair of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).

Talarico, who represents Texas in the state House, has previously made headlines for calling out Texas Republicans for "trying to force public schools" to display the Ten Commandments and has generated significant buzz as a forceful voice for Democrats in a state largely in the hands of the GOP.

'Wall Street Journal' Ripped After Saying Millennials And Gen Zers Are 'Splurging' On 'Rotisserie Chickens' Instead Of Buying Homes

It's sadly all too common for older generations to look down on millennials and criticize their constant complaining about how "hard" life is and how they can't afford to be homeowners.

Trump Roasted After Making Bonkers Comparison Between Gas Prices In Iowa And California

President Donald Trump was widely mocked for making a nonsensical comparison between gas prices in Iowa versus California during a ceremony at the White House in which he was given an award for being the "undisputed champion of beautiful clean coal."

Trump's recognition reportedly came from the Washington Coal Club, a pro-coal advocacy organization with financial links to the sector. The award was presented by James Grech, chief executive of Peabody Energy, the nation’s largest coal producer. The bronze trophy depicts a miner equipped with a headlamp and pickaxe.
