80s Teen Idol Corey Haim Dead at 38



LOS ANGELES -- Actor and former teen idol Corey Haim has died at the age of 38, the Los Angeles Police Department has confirmed to KTLA.

Haim died at 3:30 a.m. Wednesday of an apparent accidental overdose, according to the LAPD's North Hollywood Division.

Coroner's Lt. Cheryl MacWillie said an autopsy would determine an official cause of death.

Haim was found unresponsive sometime before 2 a.m. inside a unit at the Oakwood Apartment Complex, located between Burbank and the Hollywood Hills, police said.

He was at home with his mother at the time.

TMZ is reporting that Haim had been sick over the last couple of days with flu-like symptoms and collapsed in front of his mother after getting out of bed. Four prescription bottles, not related to his illness, were reportedly found inside the apartment.

The Canadian-born actor, who has struggled with drug addiction, was pronounced dead Providence St. Joseph's Medical Center in Burbank, police said.

Haim became a teen heartthrob in the 80s after appearing in the 1986 film "Lucas" and 1987's "The Lost Boys," which also starred fellow teen idol Corey Feldman.

Both actors appeared together on the A&E show "The Two Coreys," which aired from 2007 to 2008.

Haim was nominated for a Viewer's Choice Award at the 22nd Annual Gemini Awards in Canada for his role on the show, which was canceled after two seasons.

I don't know, this just disgusts me. She is nothing but an attention and fame seeking whore. Why in the world are you TWITTERING about how devestated you are?? Seems to me, if you were soooooo devestated, you would not be fucking around on Twitter. Hope this extends your 15 minutes honey. Way to exploit a tragic death.










Boxer Oscar De La Hoya's niece has confirmed reports she was dating tragic actor Corey Haim at the time of his death on Wednesday.

Reality TV star Daisy De La Hoya, who fronts VH1 show Daisy of Love, has taken to Twitter.com to pour out her emotions about her lover's death.

Haim died from a suspected overdose at his mother's apartment in Los Angeles.

De La Hoya tweets, "I'm sooooooo devastated right now. This is the worst day ever I can't believe this."

A source close to the 28 year old reveals she and Haim had only just started dating and attended a Playboy Mansion party together with the actor's namesake pal Corey Feldman just before his death.

The insider tells Eonline.com, "Daisy knew Corey was doing a lot of drugs, especially prescription meds. She thought he was kind and talented, and she wanted to rescue him. She became his confidant over the last few weeks. He told her a lot.

"They weren't in an exclusive relationship, but they were having a lot of fun getting to know each other and seeing what would happen."

The reality TV star's representative tells the website, "She's bawling and inconsolable."

In another tweet, De La Hoya wrote, "Why do I always fall for the lost soul? We could of (sic) been lost together, now you're lost forever... I'll miss you."
And, fighting back tears on U.S. news show Access Hollywood on Thursday (11Mar10), De La Hoya added, "I was supposed to see him (Haim) at some point later on in this week.
"I just had a really rough year with a relationship; I guess he had been doing the same... I would have liked to have made the situation a happy ending, but I think that we never had that time to really do that."
She revealed that Feldman and his estranged wife introduced her to Haim, warning her that he had issues: "He had his reservations... but I was just like... 'I really like this guy a lot and... I feel like he needs a positive person in his life, because I don't feel like he has a lot (of them).'
"I said, 'I don't care what anyone else says about this or how you feel about this personally, and I know you've been friends with him for 20 years or whatever it is, and you've had your ups and downs, but I feel like I want to be there and, like, show this person that he is really awesome.'
"I always want to see the good in people. I have dealt with those issues myself, so when I see myself in somebody, I recognise those demons and I want to be there to help people, so I naturally always flock to the wounded birds."
