In an explosive tell-all, Corey Feldman reveals the sexual abuse he and the late Corey Haim suffered in his upcoming memoir, ‘Coreyography.’
Feldman says that Haim told him his abuse started while he was filming Lucas, when he was 14 years old.
“Within hours of our first meeting, we found ourselves talking about Lucas, the film he made in the summer of 1985, the role I had wanted for myself,” Feldman writes. “At some point during the filming, he explained an adult male convinced him that it was perfectly normal for older men and younger boys in the business to have sexual relations, that it was what all ‘guys do.’
“So they walked off to a secluded area between two trailers, during a lunch break for the cast and crew, and Haim, innocent and ambitious as he was, allowed himself to be sodomized.”
According to Feldman, the man who abused Haim on the set of Lucas, now “walks around, one of the most successful people in the entertainment industry, still making money hand over fist,” Feldman writes, without naming the entertainer.
“If it wasn’t the first time Haim had experimented with cocaine, it was definitely one of the first,” said Feldman. “That knowledge has been exceedingly difficult to live with, knowing that I helped influence his drug use and, ultimately, unwittingly contributed to my best friend’s demise.”
According to New York Daily News, “What makes the scene even more sordid in retrospect is that the teen boys were sharing the night, and the blow, with their abusers, Ron and Tony (both pseudonyms).”
Haim died in 2010 from pneumonia, after 15 stints in rehab to combat his devastating addiction to drugs.

Take a look (just a warning: you cannot unsee this).
From Triple J’s website: “There is a serious humanitarian crisis going down in Syria at the moment. Aid agencies are reporting more than two million people, including one million children, have fled their homes and are living in relief centres in neighbouring countries. They need food, water, shelter and health care. That’s why the ABC is running the 2013 Syrian Appeal and why we’re keen to get involved.”
These are some of the other challenges they completed for donations:
– Tom dressing in drag for the entire show ($400)
– Alex singing Mr. President’s ‘Coco Jumbo’ in full ($50)
– Interviewing someone for 5 minutes without asking them a single question ($50)
– Re-enacting a scene from Ace Ventura ($50)
– Talking like Yoda for 30 minutes ($50)
Well played Tom & Alex.
And you can donate direct to UNHCR on 1300 885 997. Every bit counts. More info on the ABC Appeals page, too.

What a stunning and tasteful dress Kelly Clarkson married in. Just beautiful. Makes me want to get married again (to my husband - not someone else...)
I was just about to say the same thing (well, except I'm not married). Absolutely beautiful dress and so different to what you normally see.
Agreed! She looks so happy!
I believe it too. Having lived in LA for a while, you hear some horrible things about the business. A child in Hollywood needs to be helicoptered by their parent constantly.
