Matthew Perry once beat up Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, but the "Friends" star said he's "not proud" of it.

The incident occurred when Perry was in 5th grade and Trudeau was a few years younger than him.

“His dad was the prime minister,” Perry said before pointing out that Trudeau had no security at the time and agreeing with the host that no one would get away with bullying President Donald Trump's youngest son, Barron Trump.

“I don’t think that’s the reason we beat him up," Perry continued. "I think he was the only kid in school we could beat up. I’m not bragging about it. It was terrible. I was a stupid kid. I didn’t want to beat him up. In fact, I think at one point I tried to turn it into love play.”

After Perry and Kimmel agreed on Trudeau's good looks, the actor explained why he believes the fight could have propelled Trudeau to his current position.
