The boy Kevin McCallister became a grown man Macaulay Culkin. Macaulay Culkin always lived in grand style and was always closely followed by the paparazzi. But lately he has disappeared from sight.

He was not on social networks for a long time; many even thought that Macaulay had been dead for a long time. To be honest, his appearance always changes due to life circumstances. Either he is a neat hipster, or an unshaven dork with long hair.

But he still overcame all the troubles and looks amazing again, look for yourself.

Culkin met his future wife Rachel Miner at a New York school, and in 1999 the young
had a wedding. Their love turned out to be not so strong and less than 2 years later the young people divorced.

Approximately after the release of the film “Rich Richie”, Culkin received an offer to act in films.
act less often. Still from the film “Saved,” 2004.

In 2004, Macaulay begins to use drugs. A photo of their police archive from 2004, when Macaulay Culkin was detained by police for possession of marijuana.

In May 2002, Culkin began a relationship with popular actress Mila Kunis. couple together
met until 2011. They were happy for almost 10 years. The agent of actress Kunis, in her words, spoke about
breakup: “The separation was amicable and they remain close friends.”

From 2010 until 2013, the media was convinced that Culkin had become a drug addict.

Fans were shocked by the actor’s pale face and thought that he was terminally ill.

Culkin was still able to surprise everyone. It turns out that in 2013 he became the founder of the parody rock band The
Pizza Underground. They performed comical covers of the legendary The Velvet Underground.

The group was able to exist for only a year and broke up, and Culkin himself disappeared somewhere.

But he returned again and began to delight his fans with rainbow photographs.

In the footage, he is buying cigarettes in West Hollywood; the paparazzi managed to photograph him on July 23, 2017.

It looks fresh and neat.

Macaulay Culkin's life is not so simple. He was both a successful and almost forgotten man. But,
The main thing is that now he took everything into his own hands and began to live from the very beginning.

As it turned out, Kalkin decided to recover from methadone addiction in a specialized clinic. Culkin became heavily hooked on drugs about 18 months ago. At that time, he had just broken up with Mila Kunis, with whom he had lived for eight years. This breakup was not easy for him.

The authors of the article claim that Kalkin suffers from a severe drug addiction - he is addicted to heroin and oxycodone (a painkiller). The culprit of Kalkin's misadventures, according to the newspapers, was Mila Kunis. They dated for nine years, and the actor was going to propose to the girl. Culkin could not survive the separation from his beloved and began taking drugs.

Spokeswoman Michelle Bega called the note a "ridiculous fake" that was insulting to her client and said Culkin was fit and healthy. In 2000, the actor's half-sister Jennifer died of an overdose, and Macaulay's 24-year-old friend Elia Rosello died of the same reason in March.

Macaulay Culkin got hooked on drugs because of Mila Kunis?

The American tabloid The National Enquirer claims that 31-year-old actor Macaulay Culkin, whom we remember from the Home Alone film series, uses heroin and hallucinogens. Macaulay tried to drown out his loneliness and pain with heroin. Now Macaulay looks like a skeleton, tightly covered with skin.” To be fair, it is worth noting that Mila Kunis, who is now dating Ashton Kutcher, did not turn Macaulay on drugs at all; even before meeting her, the actor was using “weed.”

Perhaps Macaulay was never able to recover from the divorce of his parents, who staged a loud division of property, and from the death of both sisters. Be that as it may, after the publication of the article in The National Enquirer, several public organizations expressed a desire to “take patronage of Culkin and help him recover from drug addiction.” Who knows, maybe Mila Kunis will respond to this misfortune. Woman.ru hopes that Macaulay will be able to overcome his addiction.

And then there are so many tragedies in the family. With Kunis, he may have found something resembling a home. And just like that... I don't blame her. This is everyone's personal choice. Even after his father, 69-year-old Keith Culkin, suffered a massive heart attack and is in critical condition, his son Macauley does not want to make contact.

Macaulay Culkin: how a millionaire turned into a drug addict (VIDEO)

The reason for the misunderstandings, and subsequently the scandal that separated father and son forever, was that Keith, being Macaulay’s manager, was not involved in his development as an actor.

At the end of the bizarre clip, the former comedy star says: "Hi, my name is Macaulay Culkin and I just ate pizza."

Macaulay was just as famous, but no one offered him roles, it felt like a boycott was declared on the talented boy. For example, in the films “Saved”, “Jerusalem Syndrome”, “Club Mania”, you can see an already adult Macaulay. Millionaire, Guinness Book of Records record holder and almost a national hero! This is the real life of a little boy, Hollywood actor Macaulay Culkin.

To hit a bigger jackpot, Keith Culkin came up with a cunning scheme: if someone wanted to star in Macaulay's film, he was forced to sign a contract with all of his brothers and sisters. It’s not just Hollywood that has turned its back on Culkin the Great. Hollywood hasn't heard of Macaulay Culkin for 8 years! And so, he decides to revive his acting career in the film Club Mania, playing a bisexual drug addict.

It seemed that only a miracle could pull Kalkin out of this abyss. And that became love. Fortunately, after some time, fate brought Culkin together with actress Jordan Lane, who is said to be very similar to the actor’s ex.

Now Macaulay Culkin travels around cities, gives concerts and continues to surprise with new antics. Such professions did not bring too much money to a large family, and the Kalkins huddled in a small apartment. In early childhood, Macaulay pestered all his relatives with his inventions and tricks.

At about the age of 5, young Culkin starred in his first productions of Bach's Children and Big Squirrel. After 2 years, Macaulay appears in several commercials at once and appears in episodes of various films. It is quite expected that the public wanted to see Macaulay Culkin exclusively in roles like Kevin McCallister, the main character of the acclaimed dilogy.

Macaulay Culkin resumed his acting career only 10 years later. He played the leading role of a drug-addicted party planner in the tragicomedy Club Mania.

The last stage in Culkin’s childhood career was the comedy film Richie Richie. At the time of filming, he was already 14 years old, and he no longer looked very good in the role of a little boy. At the age of 17, Macaulay Culkin married his peer and former classmate Rachel Miner, who was also an actress, best known for her roles in television series.

For some time, Culkin studied ballet and dance at the School of American Ballet.

Recently, a video appeared on the Internet in which Macaulay Culkin...eats pizza. That's all. Nothing else happens in the video. It also soon became clear that Culkin's video was a parody of a video shot by the great artist and producer of The Velvet Underground Andy Warhol, during which he eats a hamburger. I haven't been to jail, I've only been arrested once, and I generally try my best to avoid stereotypes associated with former child stars.

The seventieth journalist spoke so tediously and so slowly that at some point I simply passed out. It always seemed to me that I had two fathers - the real one and the one I drew in my head. Vladimir Vasilenko in the 2000s he had 7 roles in films and on TV. But no one except Party Monster will remember them now. Macaulay, like Keanu Reeves, showed his remarkable side!

This is not Macaulay’s first attempt to do this, but this time he started the task without much enthusiasm. It involves long-term abstinence, but Macaulay decided to change it a little and continues to take methadone from time to time, maintaining his addiction,” the insider said. The actor’s friends are worried that he will bring himself to a state of extreme neglect, as in 2011, when, after the collapse of his career and relationship with Mila Kunis, he became heavily addicted to heroin.

The film “Getting Even with Father” became iconic in every sense for Keith and Macaulay Culkin. American actor Macaulay Culkin, who became famous for his leading role in both parts of the film “Home Alone,” will live no more than six months.

The American tabloid The National Enquirer claims that the 31-year-old actor, whom we remember from the Home Alone film series, uses heroin and hallucinogens. And the actress contributed to this.

“Calkin became heavily addicted to drugs about 18 months ago. At that time, he had just broken up with Mila Kunis, with whom he had lived for eight years. This breakup was not easy for him. Macaulay tried to drown out his loneliness and pain with heroin. Now he has set up a real den in his Manhattan apartment and spends several thousand dollars a month on drugs,” writes The National Enquirer, citing the words of “close friend Macaulay Culkin.” Where the actor gets such large sums is unknown. According to foreign media reports, he squandered his millions long ago and lives on the “salary” of a DJ.

According to a reliable source of the publication, “drugs are killing Mac”: “For a year and a half, he has been taking either heroin or oxycodone (a painkiller - site note). Mac surrounded himself with a group of drug addicts and scum. This is a real tragedy! Last year he almost died of an overdose... Now Macaulay looks like a skeleton, tightly covered with skin.” Indeed, lately it has been very difficult to discern in this 31-year-old man the star of the film “Home Alone”: rosy-cheeked gaiety has been replaced by frightening thinness (with a height of 1.7 m, the actor weighs only 50 kg) and gloominess.

Official representatives of Culkin, naturally, deny his addiction to drugs. “The article published in The National Enquirer is a complete fabrication. She insults Mr. Culkin,” said the actor’s press secretary, Michelle Bega.

To be fair, it is worth noting that Mila Kunis, who is now dating Ashton Kutcher, did not turn Macaulay on drugs at all; even before meeting her, the actor was using “weed.” In 2004, Mack was arrested for possession of marijuana and antidepressants for which he did not have a prescription.

It is unclear what exactly was the reason that Culkin, the idol of millions of children in the early 1990s, decided to make himself a “living corpse” (besides, before his eyes was the tragic “experience” of his half-sister - in 2000, Jennifer Adamson died from drug overdose). Perhaps Macaulay was never able to recover from the divorce of his parents, who staged a loud division of property, and from the death of both sisters. Maybe he was depressed by his fading popularity, or maybe his failed marriage to Rachel Miner...

Be that as it may, after the publication of the article in The National Enquirer, several public organizations expressed a desire to “take patronage of Culkin and help him recover from drug addiction.” Who knows, maybe Mila Kunis will respond to this misfortune. the site hopes that Macaulay will be able to overcome his addiction.

Probably every person in the world knows Kevin McCallister from the all-time Christmas comedy Home Alone. Released back in 1990, this family film about a child left at home all alone on Christmas Eve was the highest-grossing project in the world until 2011. By the way, he lost the championship to the film “Bachelor Party 2: From Vegas to Bangkok.” On the eve of the New Year holidays, Chris Columbus's film "Home Alone" is watched with great pleasure for the first time or rewatched for the hundredth time by millions of people.

The main role in the film was played by the handsome and incredibly charming American actor Macaulay Culkin, who was only 10 years old at the time of the comedy's release. Now almost nothing is heard about the actor. Today we would like to correct this shortcoming and tell the reader about the once popular boy: his current life, successes and failures in life.

Biography facts

I would like to immediately make a reservation and note that in connection with the facts published several years ago by respected American publications that related to the actor, or rather the drug addiction of Macaulay Culkin, the article will also discuss this addiction of the young guy. But from the very beginning I would like to recall his biography:

1. He was born on August 26, 1980 in New York, USA. He was the third child in a poor Catholic family, in which his father was once an actor and his mother was a telephone operator.
2. He studied at a school with an acting bias, because his father had huge plans for his son.
3. At the age of 5 he received his first minor role in an episode of a feature film. Before becoming widely known, he managed to participate in such projects as “The Equalizer” and “Uncle Buck”.
4. In 1990, at the age of 10, Macaulay Culkin, whose drug addiction we will discuss below, received his first fee of 100 thousand dollars for the main role in the film “Home Alone.”

Under father's pressure

Kalkin Sr. was only interested in his son’s increasing fees. In 1991, the boy earned a fabulous sum of $1 million for his role in the film “My Daughter.” Later his profits only grew. After the continuation of the beloved comedy about a child left alone in a huge city and abandoned during the Christmas holidays, the second part, “Home Alone - 2. Lost in New York” in 1992, brought Macaulay $4.5 million. By the way, at that time the legal representative of his son was Culkin Sr., who demanded huge money from the producers for the participation of his own son in their project. In the films “Equal with Father” and “Richie Richie,” Macaulay Culkin’s fees were 8 million each. Hollywood producers stopped offering work to the talented boy who was showing great promise at that time, because they were unable to pay his father’s unreasonable demands.

Macaulay Culkin’s father pushed him toward health problems, including overwork, taking antidepressants, and drug addiction. It was he who wanted his son to work hard, realizing all his own dreams that had once failed. By 1994, when the guy was only 13 years old, his total fees reached $35 million. The parents began to conflict because the father insisted on his son working hard in order to earn more money. In June 1995, they divorced and Macaulay remained with his mother.

Personal life

The young American actor’s romantic relationship did not work out. He was married to Rachel Miner, but after a few years of marriage their marriage broke up. Afterwards, Culkin was in love with Mila Kunis, but this relationship ended in separation in 2011. Failures in his personal life and lack of demand in his chosen business caused Kalkin to become deeply depressed. At first, Macaulay Culkin denied his drug addiction and tried in every possible way to convince everyone that the press was spreading this information about him. By the way, it was on the yellow pages of printed publications that they started talking about the actor’s addiction to drugs after his breakup with Kunis. However, long before their meeting (in 2004), Kalkin had already been detained by the police for illegal possession of drugs.

Macaulay Culkin has a drug problem

A creative person, having lost all hope of building a successful career in cinema, decided to try his hand at music. Culkin worked as a DJ in clubs at night, and spent his days at rehearsals for the musical group in which he participated. In the spring of 2013, Macaulay Culkin's drug addiction became public knowledge. He publicly admitted that he abuses illegal substances. His appearance evoked sympathy and pity among those around him: with a height of 170 cm, his weight was only 47 kg. It was decided to undergo rehabilitation, because Kalkin was no longer able to overcome his addiction to drugs on his own.

It is worth saying that now Macaulay Culkin looks like a healthy and quite happy person. In July 2017, journalists filmed him buying cigarettes; they were very impressed by the actor’s appearance. Culkin cut his hair, was dressed stylishly and neatly, and it was also noticeable that he had gained a little weight. There are rumors that such changes were influenced by Brenda Song, with whom Macaulay is now having an affair.

There is no point in denying the talent of actor Macaulay Culkin. His stunning childhood success is the main confirmation of this. Life's trials of lack of demand and unfulfillment lead once popular people to the path of least resistance: to alcoholism or drug addiction. I would like to believe that the actor who played Kevin McCallister managed to overcome the disease and very soon viewers will see him again on blue TV screens or in cinemas. Moreover, Macaulay Culkin now looks like a man who is ready to fight for his own happiness.
