Gary Coleman exploited by his parents and then lost it all. Would have been hard peaking so young too then working as a security guard.
shareI don't feel sorry for him. He came across as a very arrogant douchebag--and no, I don't think that was because of his parents. I just think he grew up with a big head thinking he was hotter shit than he was. and then became bitter when his career went nowhere. I remember seeing him on a crappy People's Court knockoff that involved a woman he'd assaulted as a security guard. He was not only snide the entire time, the plaintiff claimed that she was the reason why he couldn't stand black people. He mocked her, saying, "How could I say that if I'm black myself?" But then look who he married.
I contrast him with people like Todd Bridges and Danny Bonaduce, who also had rough lives (Bonaduce was horribly beaten by his father throughout The Partridge Family), but never came across as mean and bitter. They may have acted poorly at times because of their addiction issues but when they were sober, they came across as personable.
Rollo Weeks, the younger brother of actresses Honeysuckle and Perdita Weeks.
He auditioned for the role of Harry Potter and he was a much better actor than Daniel Radcliffe. But of course he didn't get the part and afterwards his acting career fizzled out. Last I heard he was working in catering. That would have been difficult to come to terms with.
i had to google him
share"Feeling sorry for" in the broad sense.
I'll be watching a movie, usually an older one I've never seen before and then I'll hear the music sound track begin, and the actor/actress begins breaking into song. I cringe at how embarrassing it must be to have to do that. It's so corny, so cheesy.
Of course I ditch said movie because I can't stand to watch a musical production.
