“I have a story about him that I’m not proud of... My friend Chris Murray who was also in the fifth grade in Canada reminded me we actually beat up Justin Trudeau,” the sitcom star began, adding that the confrontation was sparked by ‘pure jealousy’.

“I think he was excelling in a sport. He was the only kid in school that we could beat up,” Perry said of the politician.

Perry, who is not proud of his 10-year-old self, further said, “I’m not bragging about this. It’s terrible. I was a stupid kid I didn’t want to beat him up.”
