Spotted: Macaulay Culkin looking pale and nauseous outside Chateau Marmont
Macaulay Culkin’s health has been the topic of much speculation lately, with the rumor mill going into overdrive, claiming the Home Alone star is hooked on heroin.
Macaulay’s representatives have vehemently denied he has a drug problem, however these latest pictures appear to show Macaulay in anything but good health, as he feels the urge to be sick in public.
The actor was pictured looking pale and nauseous outside Chateau Marmont on Friday, in the first pictures of the 31-year-old since he denied claims in a US tabloid publication that the former child star is ‘hooked on heroin’.
The MTV Movie Award-winner was seen clutching his stomach as he looked ready to throw-up.
As Macaulay moved towards the bush, he leaned his head over the greenery and despite initially looking overwhelmed by the need to be sick, he just spat and cleared his mouth out instead.
The child star has been plagued by rumours recently that he is on a downward spiral of drug addiction and has just ‘six months to live’.
Macaulay’s spokesperson was forced to deny claims published by the National Enquirer last week that the Uncle Buck star has a $6,000-a-month drug habit.
His representatives branded the US tabloid article “ridiculously fictitious” and “insulting”.
The allegations said he regularly shoots up heroin and addictive painkiller oxycodone (dubbed hillbilly heroin).
The report went on to claim Macaulay turned his Manhattan apartment into a drug den.
Responding to the allegations, Culkin’s publicist Michelle Bega said: “The report in the National Enquirer that Macaulay Culkin is addicted to heroin and assorted hallucinogenics is not only categorically without merit, but it is also impossibly and ridiculously fictitious.”
The Enquirer claims Culkin’s alleged drug use intensified 18 months ago – around the time he split from long-term girlfriend Kunis, who is now dating Ashton Kutcher.
