Does Matt LeBlanc Look Like Every Irish Uncle?
Recently, snapshots of Matt LeBlanc went viral on Twitter with netizens exclaiming, “That’s everyone’s Irish uncle!”
Matt played Joey Tribbiani from the hit TV show, Friends. With his laid-back pose, salt and pepper hair, and that peculiar fatherly smirk, it’s not hard to see why he reminds you of your Irish uncle. He embodies the quintessence of an uncle who’d regale you with tales of his youth whilst nursing a pint, only breaking for an occasional chuckle or to argue about football.
Matt LeBlanc and Ireland
It’s true. Irish people are obsessed with Matt LeBlanc from “Friends” after the saw him in the reunion special on HBO Max. The reason is apparently he looks like everyone’s Irish uncle in Ireland. Like, every person in Ireland has an uncle that resembles him.
But here’s the zinger: LeBlanc isn’t even Irish! He’s French and Italian.
Perhaps it’s the charm, the casual demeanor, or the “how you doin’?” familiarity that we associate with our Irish uncles. Whatever it is, it’s clear that Joey may not have shared meatball subs with Chandler in an Irish pub. Matt LeBlanc though can definitely pass as everyone’s favorite Irish uncle at a family gathering. Sláinte, Uncle Joey!
