Corey Feldman
born: 16-07-1971
birth place: California, USA

An on-screen reconciliation with Corey Haim in 1992’s Blown Away did not reach the same level of enthusiasm that the pair once would have received, but Feldman continued to work steadily and by the late 1990s, he had released a second album ‘Still Searching for Soul’ with his band, Corey Feldman’s Truth Movement.

Despite his lack of success in the music world, Feldman persisted and he released ‘Former Child Star’ in 2002, which was also a critical and commercial failure.

In the same year, after touring with the album, Feldman appeared in the reality show, The Surreal Life. The concept of the programme involved a number of celebrities living together in a Big Brother-esque environment. The show did little to invigorate Feldman’s fan base due to the general consensus that he seemed to moan and whine in diva fashion the entire time. In the final episode of the show he was married to his then fiancé Susi Sprague by another star-from-the-past, rapper MC Hammer. The couple remain together and their son Zen was born in August 2004.

In 2005, Feldman made his stage debut in the off-Broadway play Fatal Attraction, a parody of the seminal 1987 film classic. The play was well-received by critics and led to a call from the A&E network about a new TV show.

Back on form with old chum Corey Haim, The Two Coreys aired in 2007 under the premise of both Coreys playing fictional versions of themselves. The show went down well in the states and production started on a second season early in 2008.

Throughout Feldman’s life and career, he has experienced the atypical Hollywood peaks and troughs, but can be acknowledged as bouncing back from it all with a resilience that many other stars could learn a thing or two from. Expect to see him on TV, the big screen or even just your local DVD shelf for a long while to come.
