Child Star Corey Haim Dead at 38
In another sad Hollywood turn, Corey Haim was found dead in his home early this morning. He was 38. “He was found unresponsive at his Oakwood apartment around 3:30 a.m.,according to KTLA-TV. His mother was at the apartment at the time of his death. The actor, who has struggled with drug addiction, was pronounced dead at Providence St. Joseph’s Medical Center in Burbank. Police were called to the hospital just before 4 a.m. to investigate his death. Police sources told CBS Haim’s death appeared accidental. Haim has been in and out of rehab and starred in a reality show with Feldman in 2007 called The Two Coreys. He talked about his struggle with drugs – specificially prescription drugs.” [NYDN]
Sad. True drug dependence is too serious a disease to leave to reality TV.
I’m so sorry… but does this really surprise anyone?
Odds are that E! News, the Insider, ET, et al have had an hourlong special in the can for at least ten years, with someone assigned to update it on a moment’s notice.
That moment has arrived. To your TV this afternoon, tomorrow at latest.
I’m just waiting for Dr. Drew to make his rounds on the entertainment “news” circuit! He’s like a vulture.
SHOCKING!!…….well not really………
If ya want a good reason not to ever do drugs look at him during his heyday and how hawt he was and then ten years later….
@ Terrwill: Totally true.
How many want to bet that Cory Feldman is doing cartwheels right now and calling Larry Kind and every other interview show out there so he can get some on air time?
I was really sad when I heard about this + was a huge fan of his on The Two Coreys.
