Other Facts:
• Matt didn't have much interest in acting as a kid. He received his first motercycle at age 8 and competed in amateur motor-racing competitions. In a celebrity Grand Prix he ran into a wall, taking Jason Priestly's car out of the race.
• When Schwimmer first met Le Blanc he was skeptical. Matt was wearing leather jeans and Schwimmer thought he was "Joe cool stud" and hated him on sight.
• The day he auditioned for Friends, Le Blanc had a big scab on his nose and forehead after falling down drunk on a bender the night before. He also only had $11 in his bank account. (At $750,000 an episode of Friends, I'd have to say he's not bad off anymore!)
• A passion for landscape photography has taken Matt all over the world.
• Matt le Blanc used to model Levi 501's and has appeared in TV ads for Coca-Cola and Heinz Ketchup.
