Macaulay Calkin and his drug addiction

One of the most famous stories of early success is an instant surge in popularity of Macaulay Culkin after starring in the Christmas comedy "Alone at home." He was predicted a great future, because the talent of the boy manifested itself in 4 years. However, the precarious situation in the Macaulay family, the unstable relationship with his father, and the attempts of his and his son to attach to each film the other children, the subsequent divorce and judicial proceedings of the parents led to the fact that the young actor for 10 years moved away from the life of the cinema. During this time, he was forgotten about as a successful actor. And Macaulay Culkin himself grew up, became very thin and lost all his youthful charm. In addition, in his incomplete 18 years, the actor has already married. And two years later I managed to get a divorce .

How it all began, and what came of it

All this helped to start smoking grass and use an incredible number of power engineers. Therefore, when in 2003 Macaulay returned to the cinema, having played the main role in the film "Club Mania" about the promoter who killed his drug dealer, many decided that in this hero Macaulay fully showed his true face.

Macaulay Culkin always refrained from telling stories about his lifestyle to reporters, so the press learned from the friends that he was taking drugs. They said that the 8-year-old affair with Mila Kunis ended only because she could not reconcile with the drug addiction of Macaulay Culkin. However, parting with his beloved only aggravated the situation and the actor "hooked" on heroin.

Several times the well-known actor tried to get rid of his addiction, however, never brought the treatment to its end, starting to take methadone again.

In 2016, the actor for the first time in many years decided to share his thoughts with the press, giving an interview to the famous edition of Guardin. Then the 35-year-old Macaulay said that he was still undecided in life. Now he does not act in films, but writes poetry, is engaged in painting and sometimes appears in commercials. In May this year, he once again went to the clinic for treatment of dependence. Although Macaulay Kalkin himself does not recognize the fact that he is a drug addict, arguing about it this way:

Politics, religion and drugs are alien to me. I did not spend 6 thousand dollars on heroin, as many paparazzi write. They just try to cash in on gossip.
