COREY HAIM DIES AT AGE 38

Former teen star Corey Haim died on Wednesday (March 10th) in Los Angeles at the age of 38. TMZ.com reports that Haim collapsed in front of his mother around 1 a.m., after which paramedics took him to the hospital where he was pronounced dead about two hours later.

Media outlets are reporting that the cause of death is likely an accidental prescription drug overdose. Law enforcement sources told TMZ that four prescription bottles were found near his body. Haim has reportedly been battling flu-like symptoms in the past few days, but the medications recovered were supposedly unrelated.

Corey's mom reportedly told authorities he had been battling prescription drug addiction for years.

His agent, however, said he thought it was unlikely an overdose killed Haim. Mark Heaslip told People magazine, "I really don't think it was an overdose. He was doing really well. He did struggle with substance abuse, but I've repped him for a year-and-a-half and part of my agreement with him was that he had to be clean. That was the number one priority."

COREY MAY HAVE BEEN ALIVE WHEN AMBULANCE CAME

A witness at the apartment complex where Haim collapsed told TMZ that paramedics spent 20 minutes inside the apartment before carrying him out on a stretcher with an oxygen mask over his face, suggesting he may still have been alive at the time.

STARS REACT TO THE DEATH

Haim's longtime friend and frequent co-star Corey Feldman said in a statement, "I was awakened at 8:30 this morning by my brother and sister knocking on my bedroom door. They informed me of the loss of my brother Corey Haim. My eyes weren't even open all the way when the tears started streaming down my face. I am so sorry for Corey, his mother Judy, his family, my family, all of our fans, and of course my son who I will have to find a way to explain this to when he gets home from school. This is a tragic loss of a wonderful, beautiful, tormented soul, who will always be my brother, family, and best friend. We must all take this as a lesson in how we treat the people we share this world with while they are still here to make a difference. Please respect our families as we struggle and grieve through this difficult time. I hope the art Corey has left behind will be remembered as the passion of that for which he truly lived."

Alyssa Milano: "Just woke up to the sad, sad news that Corey Haim passed away. RIP sweet boy."

Comedian Michael Showalter: "Damn. RIP Corey."

Christina Applegate: "My thoughts go out to Corey's family and friends today. So sad."

Kevin Smith: "Lost Boy goes home: Corey Haim, dead at 38. G'bye, LUCAS. You gave hope to the weird & unlikely."

Ashton Kutcher: "Rip Corey Haim 'Childhood hero.' "

Fellow '80s actor Ralph Macchio: "Always so sad and disturbing when the addiction and demons prevail. RIP Corey Haim."

Todd Bridges: "Corey Haim was a good friend of mine and he will be missed. Too many people are dying way too young and it's sad because of the loved ones who are left behind to understand what happened and to feel the loss. I hope he's in a better place. I will always love my Brother, and I will never judge him. I understand his pain, but I also know now there is a way out. I hope anyone who is dealing with the same stuff gets out before it's too late. Don't let the death of others fool you into thinking that it cannot happen to you. If you play with fire, you will get burned."

Leif Garret: "This just goes to show that whether it's street drugs or a prescription from the doctor, that all drugs are dangerous -- as we saw with my friend, Heath, as well. No matter what form, it's not to be taken lightly. Some people are lucky enough to finish the race and others crash and burn. I do not wish this horrible disease of addiction on anybody. I send all my condolences and love to Corey's family. May he rest in peace."

BIOGRAPHY

Haim's big break came in 1986, when he played the title role of a nerdy teen in the hit high-school drama Lucas, costarring alongside Charlie Sheen and Winona Ryder.

A year later, he starred in The Lost Boys. He and Corey Feldman collaborated in that project as well as 1988's License to Drive and 1989's Dream a Little Dream. As grown men, the pair teamed up again for the A&E reality show The Two Coreys in 2007 and 2008, in which Haim struggled with sobriety.

Haim said on The Two Coreys:"Self sabotage is old habit that I thought I broke. Obviously I did not."

JEFF BRIDGES: AN AFFAIR WOULD COST ME 'EVERYTHING'

Jeff Bridges would never cheat on his wife of 33 years because an affair would cost him "everything." The Oscar winner told The Sun of wife Susan, "I'm so in love with her. The relationship just keeps getting better and more intimate and sexier and all that stuff. If you change partners every time it gets tough or you get a little dissatisfied, then you don't get the richness that's available in a long-term relationship."

He added, "My wife supports me and it makes me love her more. You don't want to mess around with that."

Staying so focused on the relationship wasn't always easy, he confessed. Bridges admitted, "It was harder earlier on. Getting married was frightening. No matter how much womanizing you do as a single guy, you always think there's more to be done. You don't want to get sexually involved with the other actor. It spells trouble. My family was and is too precious to me. I know sex can lose you everything."

He detailed the first time he met Susan, recalling, "I was filming Rancho Deluxe and she was absolutely gorgeous -- even though she'd been in this car accident. I asked her out and she turned me down saying something like, 'All you Hollywood guys think you can come in and get any girl in town. Forget about it. Maybe I'll see you around.' Well, I did see her around and kept after her."
