what is the career of corey feldman and describe his early life?
Corey began his career in the entertainment industry pretty much straight from the womb, making his acting debut at the ripe old age of three in a McDonald’s commercial. From his start in commercials and guest appearances on television shows, Corey went on to star in more than a dozen box office hits, including “The Goonies” and “Stand by Me,” each of which grossed more than $50 million dollars. Unfortunately, Corey’s status as a rising star was short lived. As a teenager, he started using drugs and got himself into a lot of trouble, which culminated in a 1990 arrest for heroin possession (sounds like Corey could have used one of Leo’s “Just say no” courtside speeches). After his battle with drugs, Corey fought to re-establish himself as an actor. But the highlights of his career since then have been a reality series with fellow former teen idol Corey Haim entitled “The Two Coreys,” and an appearance on VH1’s “The Surreal Life.” Ouch. Sources:
