On the ABC comedy -- premiering Feb. 9 -- actress Andrea Anders plays Alice, an office hookup buddy to sports agent Ben (Perry).
In real life, Anders, 35, is longtime girlfriend to Perry's old Friends cohort Matt LeBlanc -- whom she met playing his fictional girlfriend on cancelled spinoff Joey.

She and LeBlanc, 43, went public with their relationship in 2006, shortly after his surprise split from wife of three years Melissa McKnight; Anders was branded the "other woman" in some media reports.
