KARACHI: Recent media reports claim that actor Macaulay Culkin has been caught in the middle of a serious heroin and prescription drug problem.
Culkin became widely known for his portrayal of ‘Kevin McCallister’ in ‘Home Alone’ and ‘Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.’
Earlier this week, Culkin appeared on the cover of the ‘National Enquirer’ tabloid, stating the actor only had six months to live.
The actor’s representative called the reports “destructive and insulting.”
“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,” Culkin's representative told the media.
The 31-year-old former child star is also known for his roles in Richie Rich, Uncle Buck, My Girl, The Pagemaster, and Party Monster, as well as Michael Jackson's music video Black or White.
At the height of his fame, he was regarded as one of the most successful child actor.
Culkin was ranked No. 2 in VH1 and E!’s respective lists, the “100 Greatest Kid-Stars” and “50 Greatest Child Stars”.
