Perry has been promoting the upcoming memoir for some time. In February, he celebrated finally finishing the long-awaited tell-all. "So much has been written about me in the past. I thought it was time people heard from me," he tweeted at the time. "The highs were high, the lows were low. But I have lived to tell the tale, even though at times it looked like I wouldn’t. And it’s all in here. I apologize it’s not a pop up book."

As OK! previously reported, Friends castmates were rumored to be "in a panic" over what he might spill in the book.
"He didn’t feel like any of them supported him, and it was a bitter reminder of how much he suffered back when they were shooting the show," a source claimed.
Perry's memoir will hit shelves on Tuesday, November 1.
