Perry writes in his memoir that his stint as Valerie’s brother in Sydney became intense as he “fell madly in love with Valerie Bertinelli, who was clearly in a difficult marriage.”
He adds: ‘My crush was crushing; Not only was she way out of my league, but she was married to one of the most famous rock stars in the world, Eddie Van Halen.”
Perry describes how intense his crush on the actress was, which prompted him to plan a future together.
“It’s important to point out that my feelings for Valerie were real. I was totally captivated – I mean, I was obsessed with her and had elaborate fantasies about her leaving Eddie Van Halen and spending the rest of her days with me,” he writes.

It eventually escalated when he was invited to Bertinelli and Van Halen’s home, where he “just hung out and stared at Valerie, trying to make her laugh.”
“When you made her laugh, you felt ten feet tall,” he gushes.
But “Eddie had been enjoying the fruits of the vine a little too hard, one more time, and in the end he just passed out, not ten feet from us,” says Perry, adding, “This was my chance!
“If you think I didn’t stand a chance in hell, you’re wrong, dear reader – Valerie and I had a long, elaborate make-out session. It happened—maybe she felt the same as me.’
He claims that Bertinelli even seemed to reciprocate his affection.
“I told her I’d thought long and hard about doing that, and she said it right back,” Perry says.

DailyMail.com has reached out to Diaz’s representative with a comment.
He begins the story by telling that he’s set up with movie star Diaz — best known for There’s Something About Mary and Charlie’s Angels — for a date, according to PageSix.
It was shortly after she split from pop star Timberlake in 2007. Diaz was single and apparently open to dating.
It wasn’t a one-on-one date with Perry, but rather a group dinner where they got to know each other.
When she entered the room, Perry said she was “immediately stoned.”
