is edward furlong ON DRUGS?


Have you seen him at public events? He acts like he's on drugs, and it's showing on his once-pretty face that he has been doing things to his body that are harmful. Someone should send him to rehab. He is a great actor and I don't want him to die young.

Eddie has had a drug problem for a few years now. He's been in rehab several times. Eddie was suppose to be in and has in fact started filming "Terminator 3" when he overdoesed and had to be admitted. So far he's been clean now which would explain the weight gain and if he needs to eat a whole lot to transfer the addiction for now then so be it. I understand he's trimmed down and is feeling very healthy for he has already filmed "Wicked Prayer" the 4th installmant of "The Crow" movies.

reply

That's a relief. I hope he stays clean, and I also hope that the 4th Crow movie isn't as lame as the 3rd! ^_^

You live in Hollywood, you got a million dollars in the bank, women screw you on sight...

Why the *beep* do you need to do drugs?

reply

Because he has money, and because he is successful, he can afford to do drugs... and if you have ever done alot of drugs at any period in your life, you would know that doing drugs FEELS GOOD! Thats why so many wealthy successful people get hooked... its the low life poor people that you see on the streets that make it seem like the drugs are bad. If you can afford them, they make you feel Very Very good. That said... drugs suck the life out of many talented people... too bad the drugs make you feel so good!

Did you know that he's also a vegetarian? That's funny because he obviously isn't that for his own health (he's killing himself with drugs), than more likely because he's a very conscientious guy who sees animals as something more than a nicely packaged product (like most of the other people on the world do).

That aspect of his personality reminds me of a deceased legend - River Phoenix. He was also a vegeterian (a vegan precisely - he didn't eat anything of animal origin) and died of over-dose. River used to say that we are not here to kill animals, than to protect them. A truly remarkable person..

I find this very deliberate and open-minded lifestyle (but with noticeable self-destruction note) very interesting, even appealing.. Maybe beacuse it reminds me of my own lifestyle; to really enjoy life and to enable life to as many beigns as possible..

Now i just can't mention that priceless quote from crazy Sex Pistols frontman - Johnny Rotten: "Meat is not murder, it's delicious!" :)

does anyone know what he was on?

reply

Well I do know that when he overdosed he was on Heroin.

hey critiquer, why dont u js stick to doing critiques on the movies and actors like everyone else, not other people's posts.

edward furlong is a great actor and its a shame that he culdnt have been in terminator 3, it would have made the story feel more connected to the others. i dno bout you but i hate when people make sequels but use different actors for the same role.

reply

Yeah, you're right blonde337. Everyone has their right to be insane :)
