In March 2003, Brooke Shields participated in a profile with the New Yorker and spoke about several pivotal moments over her career, including the time her would-be husband, tennis star Andre Agassi, ruined her experience working on “Friends.” After shooting a scene with Matt LeBlanc where she licked his fingers, Agassi became angry. “Andre was in the audience supporting me, and he stormed out,” said Shields. She described the moment, “He said, ‘Everybody’s making fun of me. You made a fool of me by that behavior. I’m, like, ‘It’s comedy! What is the matter with you?'” She continued, “I learned later that he was addicted to crystal meth at that point, so that irrational behavior I’m sure had something to do with that.”

Unfortunately, Agassi didn’t reserve his tantrum for just the film lot. In a previous retelling of Agassi’s meltdown in her memoir, “There Was a Little Girl: The True Story of my Mother and Me,” Shields revealed Agassi also destroyed several of his tennis trophies. “Upon arrival he systematically smashed and destroyed every single trophy he had won, including Wimbledon and the US Open, never mind all the others,” said Shields in the 2015 release (via the Daily Mail).
