#4 - Virgin record store on Hollywood Blvd. Former teen A lister and now basically a has been bum, although still fairly young. Walks through the entire store just randomly throwing CD's and DVD's into a basket. Must be 100 of them. Not looking at any, just grabbing them by the handful and throwing them into this basket. Goes to checkout and wants them all for free. The cashier says they don't really do that. Our has been wants a manager. One comes over and our has been says they are for a kids organization he is working with. The manager looks at the pile and knows the has been is lying. Says he just can't help him. Our has been does the don't you know who I am routine, and the manager says he knows exactly who the has been is, but can't do anything about it. The back and forth continues, and then the has been gives up. Before he leaves though he asks the manager for $20.
Corey Haim
What a freaking tool
ReplyDeleteMy thoughts exactly Jenn
ReplyDeleteTragic and sad.
ReplyDeleteThat kid should just be put out of his misery. I know a few people like him IRL and it's sad. They are a waste of a human life.
ReplyDeleteI really loved him once. Very sad.
ReplyDeleteHa!
ReplyDeleteCome on...give the heroin abuser a break.
ReplyDeleteI just feel sorry for him. It's a little mean to kick him when he's clearly so far down already.
ReplyDeleteoh man, that's sad. and pathetic :(
ReplyDeleteHe used to be my favorite Corey. Damn how he's fallen off! It is truly sad...and pitiful...and lame.
ReplyDeletedid he get the $20?
ReplyDeleteI'd have given him a quarter, just for the line: "what did you stuff for her -- Mister Johson?"
ReplyDeleteAs long as it wasn't Corey Hart
ReplyDeletethe only decent Corey.
I was laughing until the last line about asking for 20 bucks. That is sad.
ReplyDeleteDidn't he have sex with a fan for money once?
ReplyDeleteSo did he want the cds to sale for drugs or did he just want them to prove that he's still "got star power"?
ReplyDeleteHe wanted dope money. Wicked pathetic. Didn't he try to sell his tooth on ebay or some shit a few years ago?
ReplyDeleteNo surprise there.
ReplyDeletethat's just sad.
ReplyDeletefuck..that is..so damn sad.
ReplyDeletethey shot the two coreys up here and there were severals problems with stuff going 'missing' from the rented house.
Is 37 still considered fairly young? Just curious........Sad but he had a chance to clean it up on that reality show and do a movie and he showed up high and copping major diva attitude.
ReplyDeleteyou know,i know this sounds harsh but eventually if the acting thing doesnt work out, get another job and do it on the side or something. i work as a massage therapist and there are a shit load of people here who massage and go for auditions, some work in san fran playhouses and theartres and maintain a trade job of massage to make ends meet. corey cant just shlep through expecting to ride on the coat tails of his 80's success forever.
ReplyDeleteHeartbreaking.
ReplyDeleteAwww so sad
ReplyDeleteWow. I am rereading posts from a long time ago. These posts are so sad.
ReplyDelete"That kid should just be put out of his misery. I know a few people like him IRL and it's sad. They are a waste of a human life."
Knowing what we know now, it breaks my heart to see comments like this. He was fucked up because of how others used and abused him.
RIP, Mr. Haim. I hope you have found a better life than you ever had here.
