Pay Up!
Filed under: Legal Matters > Z List
This must hurt.
"Retired" actor Matt LeBlanc is off to court soon.
The reason?
Turns out the former Friends star owes some money - to his manager!
You never bite the hand that feeds you, Matt. If she found you work, you owe her a cut.
Reports are that LeBlanc is heading to court after allegedly failing to pay his former business manager, Camille Cerio, $1 million.
Cerio is suing LeBlanc for the obvious breach of contract.
She claims he owes her past due commissions for managing his career.
Her claims are that LeBlanc agreed to cut her 15% from all pilots but stopped paying her in 2000.
However, Matt is claiming that he's paid her more than $200,000. Cerio says that amount is nothing compared to the royalties he's received from Friends and that short-lived spinoff sitcom, Joey.
Trial is set to commence on September 22nd.
Let's see how this one turns out.
They better televise it!

Who cares?! Matt is old news.
Wow..look at all the comments…this is important shit…keep it up fuck face.
That spin off show Joey stunk.
Good luck matty! I LOVE U
*****>>>HOW ANYONE COULD LIKE THAT UNFUNNY, CRAPPY GAY SHOW(FRIENDS) IS BEYOND ME!
ONE OF THE MOST OVERRATED SHOWS IN TV HISTORY!!!
what a douche!
ok, so he may have screwed up…. but he's looking HOT AS HELL in this picture. I mean… damn. What a daddy
Oh yeah, his breach of contract is SOOO "obvious". Obvious to who? We, the little people, don't know shit.
um…royalties doesn't equal 15% of Pilots lol.
That doesn't make any sense. Obviously I dont think they've been together since 1994 so why does she think shes entitled to a huge cut of his money from 10 years on the same show?….
It's times like these I wish Estelle was really his manager
Check you facts next time before you start accusing people like this- MATT LEBLANC DOES NOT OWE HIS MANAGER MONEY! Because managers are not certified in any way the way agents are they cannot by law procure work for artists- therefore, the artist does not have to pay them. Managers work with agents to procure work and the AGENTS can lawfully do this and charge for it. Managers cannot. Therefore, Matt is in the RIGHT on this one…
Someone needs a chin tuck
Re: truth –
You're an idiot
Looking great. What a dawg. I want his bone. Arf, arf!
Sounds like somebody is greedy, probably out of work (no clients) and chasing settlement money instead of earned income. Hollywood rats!
that really Sucks! just pay her u cheap ass!!!
but he was my favorite character on Friends:)
It seems impossible for a lawsuit filed this month to go to trial in September. Something is wrong about this story!
Re: truth –
you should check YOUR facts. Managers are legally allowed to secure employment and clients must pay them for their services. The main difference between managers and agents is that managers legally CANNOT negotiate a contract (although most do participate in the negotiation process anyway). However, Perez is should be careful about calling her a "business manager." Business managers and managers are two separate things. One manages your money the other manages your career. What Matt should be concerned about is that the manager is charging 15%. Industry standard commission is 10%, with many charging less is the client iis already an established star when signed.
It will be settled the morning they show up for court.
Next slanderous gossip, please. Peretzle - you'be been slagging lately. With all the weight loss, you must be getting more man meat then you can swallow.
Wish all the Friends cast would retire, especially Maniston.
Matt LeBlanc owes ME money too! I bought The Full season of JOEY on dvd! REFUND ME!!!!!!!!!
That nasty looking beard growing down his neck looks disgusting. Facial hair should be more groomed than that. Matt, trim it up a little. Your beard makes you look dirty–and I don't mean dirty in a good way!!
Re: HAM –
You actually bought that?
SUCKERS DON'T DESERVE REFUNDS CHUMP!!!!!!!
I LOVE RICKY MARTIN
Yikes gross, he looks like a chango, or is that a gorila that looks like LeBlanc???
Gross
"Joey"?? You can watch it in the oblivion museum.
matt leblanc is HOT!!!
And this is surprising HOW? From a guy who left his wife & baby when the going got tough — for his blonde, childless co-star? He has no ethics.
All those people on that show—whatever it was called—Fiends or Friends—-always strike me as people who think highly of themselves but I can never figure out why.
Ew. His facial hair is creeping down. It's going to meet with his chest hair soon. Ew.
Dude buy a razor, think you can afford one!!!
i luv matt!!!!!!!!
Fuck that Joey cunt and all his bullshit friends.
Pay up loser and go back to the Z-list with the rest of the cast of "Friends". What a stupid show. And "Joey" was even more pathetic.
Retired Actor?
You are such an asshole Perez
He was on one of the most successful show ever
he has more money than you would ever be able to shove up your ass
His show would of worked if they brought Phoebe along
