    Yawn. None of these people would have worked with him these days.

    • scott

      You are so right,

      • lee

        May be true but it is definitely all their loss. Adrianne curry is a never was. Don’t talk bad about the dead, especially when he isn’t even cold yet.

      • jan

        just because someone wouldn’t invest their professional life with someone who isn’t functioning very well–would you?–doesn’t mean they aren’t truly sad he’s been destroyed by addiction.

      • MarySueBob

        Oh please Jan – these so-called “celebs” (I mean really – Coco, Danielle Staub and Hart Hanson???) aren’t sad about anything – they are just trying to get publicity by tweeting about current events.

    • Zoe

      Wasn’t Meredith Salinger in “Dream a Little Dream” with him and Feldman? And duh, A&E aired his series.

      • shanny

        have some compassion for goodness sake. rip corey

      • Jam

        Its sad..I was rooting for him to make a comeback ..if Mickey Rourke can make a comeback & Rolling Stones guitarist Keith Richards can come back from the brink – thought he could – hope this isn’t one of those instances that happens in 3′s

    • shell lindsey

      He was my childhood Idol…And for the rest of you commentors who have NO CLUE what your talking about…please save the dissin’ for someone else….BTW…Ima recovered drug addict..I GET IT!!! R.I.P. Corey Haim..” Dream a little dream of me..”

      • nizhoni

        i woke up 2 the sad news that corey has passed. im sadden by the way his life was taken by drugs. i loved watching him n all his movies an on A&E. RIP corey

      • Jimmy Don

        I was doing the glute machine when I found out.

    • Corey

      You are very right. Those comments are just to pretend to be sorry about him but the truth is that they don’t freaking care

    • susan

      Twitter condolences: When you care enough to type 144 characters, or less…

      • Nshi

        HA!!

    • Ken

      That’s pretty disrespectful!

    • Ken

      @OMG comment “Yawn. None of these people would have worked with him these days.”

      That’s pretty disrespectful!

    • n hornberger

      I don’t know if anyone else watched every “the two coreys” but in one and only one episode corey Haim mentioned to Corey Feldman that ther was an older person on the set that sexually abused them and Corey Feldman was still freinds with him and this really bothered Corey Haim. While everyone is blaiming the “industry” ya it had it’s part but who do u think he got the drugs from, to be molested like that it usually comes from the perpretator. Let’s find out who this was and bring them to justice! And as far as Feldmans wife goes, she plays a big part inh this too by kicking Haim out on his ass for her own personal needs. Why do u think Feldman says to treat people better while they r here. Sorry for reality but i have been through it too. I feel sick to my stomach that he died the way he did thinking he was nothing when he was so much more than that. God bless u Corey Haim! I hope u r in the peace u so desired!

    • dacky

      Ur Right- they wouldn’t even look at him ‘n thats THEIR LOSS. I know someone who knew him 20 years ago and know Corey was suffering from twin demons: drug addiction ‘n being in the closet. Maybe if he stopped pretending his life could’ve taken a different path. LONG LIVE LUCAS!!!

  • Nshi

    Oh please, just your average garden variety dead drug addicted “celebrity” of the week!!!

    • junierizzle

      He’ still a human being. Regardless of how he died.
      Why the hate?

    • Tafflander

      Your a cold human being.. Corey Haim’s passing has affected more people than yours ever will

  • evyluciano

    so sad to hear a young person past away because of a drug dependecy. parents sshould be more mindful of what their child takes and actions are to be taken even if that child is as grown as corey was. so with that in mind please speak to your children and see what goes on in their minds and what troubles them.in the future sometimes it could save a life. rest in peace and you will be forever remembered.

    • jenn

      alot did try and help him, he didn’t want to help himself enough. It is a terrible deadly disease. Kinda like playing russian roulette

    • sharon

      Don’t blame Mom, that is most disrespectful! Helping oneself comes ONLY from within. RIP Corey.

  • sue

    Corey was a drug addict. Pitty these people did not step up to help him when he was alive.

    • Xuvy

      how do you know he was an addict? did you know him personally? were you ever with him? or are you just a parrot

      • jon

        @Xuvy- dude it is a known fact, he talked about it on the A&E series The two Cory’s

      • Nshi

        Where have you been Xuvy, under a rock??

      • Jimmy Don

        I bet Cory Fieldman got him hooked on drugs.

    • SLB

      And, a lot of people did try to help him. There’s nothing you can do if they don’t want to help themselves.

      • Jimmy Don

        I bet Cory Feldman got him hooked on drugs.

    • Tina

      Omg please wake up. It was up to him to want to quit. Until then no one could help all they can do is wait til he wanted the help. Ask anyone u got to want the help before u can do anything then that when everyone would have been there to help

  • Joe

    I was rooting for Corey when he appeared to attempt sobriety at the end of The two Corey’s season 2. I thought.. wow, this guy has a chance. I was hoping to see Haim on Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew. So sad. rip corey.

  • Maserda

    I find it funny how ew doesn’t censor the twitter comments.

  • R.Nash

    WOW! I still can’t believe it. Lost Boys was one of my favorites.This is becoming an epidemic!

  • John Jacobs

    give me a break, all of you hypocritical Hollywood bigots!
    This was a drug addict, like ANY OTHER out of control drug addict. He was a LOSER…like ALL drug addicts. No different with this idiot.

    • Swift

      Wow, did you actually just call other people bigots?

      I hope no one you love ever winds up addicted to drugs and in need of help. If they do, I hope you don’t treat them so poorly. Drug addiction isn’t some act of simple self-indulgence that people can stop whenever they want. Maybe you should give yourself some basic medical education before you pop off like that again.

      • tiggs

        that guy is just an idiot yeah corey was a drug addict but he was also someones son and brother and u dont have a clue what the hell ur on about ive lived wiv a drug addict and for all u people who think its easy to get clean are just un educated pr##ks all the people who know how hard it is and understand coreys demons R.I.P Corey haim we love you u are a beautiful soul

    • Xuvy

      Why do you come here and spew hate? Are you a drug addict? If I had the button I’d delete your post.

      • Jimmy Don

        Calm down. here: I bet Cory Fieldman got him hooked on drugs.

    • lee

      I think you may be the real loser there johnny. “Let him who is without sin cast the first stone”

      • tiggs

        ya got that right lee john is a loser and i bet hes done things in his life that hes not proud of like us all he needs to learn some god dam respect

    • Angelique

      I cannot believe the lack of compasion that you and many others have for a human being. A young life was lost, no matter if he was an actorf. Drug addiction is a serious illness, and instead of being so harsh maybe you should just hope that the same fate does not come to someone that you love. Condolences to the Haim family, sorry for your loss. Corey Haim was talented and an idol of mine growing up. Rest in Peace.

      • Nshi

        Hey, what’s an *actorf*??

    • junierizzle

      A human being died. None of us knew him personally. It’s sad that he gave himself away to drugs. The point is he died and it’s sad.
      Im sure you didn’t know him, so why the hate??

    • Terry

      Not to mention, do we know why he died yet? Drugs seem obvious, but if you find out that he died of something totally unrelated to drugs, are you gonna come back here and apologize?

    • Tamsin

      Look mate, whatever he was addicted to doesn’t mean he deserved to die for. Honestly where’s your compassion for others? Let people express their condolences- if you can’t say anything nice keep your gob shut and keep your nasty little opinions to yourself. OMG why are there so many haters out there?????

    • david morris

      the man was not a loser. he had a disaese.i think what you said was naive and rather callous. hopefully when u get a tooth pulled and the doc gives u a couple of vics it doesnt open up a pandoras box for you. but if it does will i call u a loser…..no

    • Disgusted

      Fascinating how you call people bigots and in the next sentence prove that you yourself are the actual bigot. How’s that working out for you?

  • melisha

    Adrianne Curry u r a loser corey was more well known than the trash that married a brady so instead of saying rip like normal ppl u come out with that mess grow up.. the man is dead we dont need a lecture from u.. my heart goes to the family and friends of corey god bless u and RIP.. u r home now to rest and be pain free

    • sandea

      Ya he was a drug addicted so if he was not a star people would not even care I agree another druggie that died if it was me or you we would not be so god danm popular all over the internet and papers, so who cares it was his fought

      • junierizzle

        Actually its always sad when someone dies. It’s not his FAULT that he was famous.
        Yes, he messed up and got hooked on drugs. But he’s dead now. All that is irrelevant.

      • Feeze

        Exactly, so why are you posting about someone you didn’t even know??? To all of you haters, some of us actually did know him and some of us are saddened by his death wither he had a substance abuse problem or not…why comment if you don’t care?? Oh, wait..you must have nothing better to do then tool around on the internet reading celebrity gossip!

        GET A LIFE!!!

        RIP Corey, you will be missed.

    • LPR

      Adrianne Curry: May all the bad Karma that oozed out of every word you wrote come back to you tenfold.
      Love and prayers to Corey’s mother and loved ones… RIP blue eyes

      • Mark

        I am pretty sure Curry is a recovering drug addict herself. So while you shouldn’t be that harsh to a recently deceased person, she isn’t a Ted Nugent-style irrational hater of all substance abusers taking a cheap shot.

      • tan27

        Thank you LPR. I couldn’t agree more.

    • MISS MAE

      While I think Ms Curry’s comments were a little harsh so soon after his death maybe if the family’s of drug users were a little harsher they would not die so frequently. I have several people in my family that WHEN faced with the drugs or me they chose that person. You have to want to quit and you have to have people pushing you to quit. Yes he did do this to himself he was unable to admit he had a problem that is truly the first step. But if no one will get in your face and say get your act together you will always feel alone. It is very sad he died a loved his movies. But I hope this can be a lesson to people who use you will die and drugs will be the cause.

      • sharon

        Again people, Why are you blaming the family? Shame on you. Seriously, Shame on you.

  • Jake

    Who the hell was Corey Haim and why does anyone give a damn about him?
    All these celebrities are a bunch of crap that shows just how stupid the American public is to give a damn.

    • John Jacobs

      I with you bud…losers, all of ‘em.

      • lee

        shows how stupid both of you are.

    • Feeze

      Obviously you give a damn if your taking the time to read all of this and post!

    • Ellie

      Love it when losers comment about what losers people are when they comment about something.

  • Kristy

    What a sad day indeed, R.I.P. Corey Haim – you were my pin up superman while I was growing up… what a tragic end. :(

    Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you
    Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you
    But in your dreams whatever they be
    Dream a little dream of me

    • sherknd

      LOVE Dream a Little Dream. Will have to go home and watch it tonight with my girls….

  • lee

    RIP Corey, I hope you are relieved of all your worries. You were one of the best actors to ever live. I really wish there was something someone could have done. My heart goes out to family and loved ones.
    -Lee

  • Dreamalittledream

    No word from Feldman?

    • Xuvy

      that piece of lint feldman should open his mouth about the molester of Haim…but he won’t he’s just a poser. RIP Corey so sad so tragic and peace to your family I hope they don’t read some of the haters on this

  • carol

    May you rest in peace Corey, thanks for all the great movies!!

  • Christina

    What makes me confused is that there has been no confirmation that he died from drugs….they said that he had been having flu-like symptoms for the days before his death….he may have had an illness but he may have been going through withdrawal….before you sit there and talk crap about him and his past drug abuse get the facts first, let them say what he actually died from before you condemn him to “rest in hell”. I think it’s crap that people will say stuff like that about someone when there has not been anything released saying that he officially died from drugs.

    • jason

      I couldn’t agree more…
