LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: John Edward is an American celebrity medium who is currently in Australia on his Crossing Over tour. He was on stage in Sydney to share his latest predictions on October 25 and reportedly predicted the death of the 'Friends' actor Matthew Perry.
According to Karen, who was attending the show, Edward stopped the performance after receiving a psychic message that she now believes was about Perry, reported the Daily Mail.
The actor was discovered dead in a hot tub at his residence three days later on October 28, at the age of 54.

In the show on October 30, Karen revealed that she was carrying a copy of Perry's memoir, 'Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing', with her while attending Edward's October 25 performance. She had the intention of giving the book to her sister.
"John asked during the show, 'Did anyone bring a book of Little House on the Prairie?' I didn't think anything of it, but my daughter said, 'Mum, you've got Matthew Perry's book,'" she said.
"Perry and Prairie, they sound similar. My daughter was saying, 'Stand up, stand up', but I was too embarrassed. And then Matthew died three days later, and I'm now thinking, 'Was it a sign?'" Karen wondered.
Another fan later called in during the show to point out that Matthew's father, actor John Bennett Perry, once starred in the television series 'Little House on the Prairie'.

Investigation is currently ongoing into the death of the actor, who was best known for portraying the character of Chandler Bing in arguably one of the most popular sitcoms of all time, 'Friends'.
Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's Office announced Perry's cause of death has been 'deferred'.
Perry was open and candid about being an addict and had battled alcoholism, nicotine, and drug addictions. He claimed to have been clean shortly before he is believed to have drowned.
The first time Perry went to rehab was in 1997, after getting addicted to pain medication following a jet skiing accident. He returned in 2001 and 2011, telling an interviewer in 2016 that he did not remember filming three seasons of 'Friends'.
He began his memoir by saying, "Hi, my name is Matthew, although you may know me by another name. My friends call me Matty. And I should be dead."
