And they were stars: the children who were spoiled by time

Kids are admired: vughut, build them mugs, make a goat - in a word, all sorts of musi-pusi. That in general it is not difficult - small children are all beautiful and just ask for admiration and utyu-tyu. And if the child has acted in film and has become famous, here hold me seven - adoration can reach practically planetary scale. However, not all early glory can benefit. Actors, which will be discussed, began very nicely, but over the years they have become far less nunful than during the years of their star childhood. Someone fell into despair, growing up and realizing that over the years the flow of universal love and attention began to dry out, someone, on the contrary, could not stand such attention to his person and began to hide from the omnipresent paparazzi, and to someone the glory so turned his head , that he hit all the hard. And all of them in childhood were much more attractive.

Macaulay Culkin

A photo: shot from the movie "One house-2", Getty Images A young boy who famously dealt with troubles and enemies, leaving "Alone at home", matured and ceased to be cute. As it turned out, his life was in trouble at home - his own father made a significant contribution to the destruction of his son's career. Having received a fee of $ 4.5 million for the role in the movie "Alone at home-2," Macaulay's father completely disappeared from the reels and inflated the price of his son's services to astronomical 8 million for the role. Of course, the greedy dared to squeeze a lot of money from film producers - when Kalkin's parents decided to divorce, litigation was conducted for managing the earned money, which was already over $ 35 million. However, film producers can count money also - in due course they began to refuse the services of fabulously expensive belobrasovogo baby, especially since the films with his participation ceased to bring profit at the box office. However, Macaulay did not lose heart. He played in the theater, and in 2003 he even tried to return to the cinema, having starred in the film "Club Mania", a special success, however, not winning. But what really drove him to despair was the parting in 2011 with Mila Kunis, whose relationship lasted more than 8 years. A year later, in the press, even information appeared that, having fallen into depression because of this, Kalkin even tried to commit suicide by taking a serious dose of tablets. Now the star of the film One Home works as a concert organizer for bands like Moldy Peaches and Har Mar Superstar . However, with the thought of conquering Hollywood, he did not part - this year, Macaulay joined the cast of the film Changeland - comedy drama will be the directorial debut of actor Seth Green.

Haley Joel Osment

But the experience that the little boy went through on the set of the film (who knows how impressionable a child can get into the role of a character who has to communicate with the dead, and how this can later affect his psyche?) may not have done him any good. Over the years, Haley has gained quite a bit of weight, but his film career, on the contrary, has lost weight – in addition to The Sixth Sense, he also starred in Steven Spielberg’s Artificial Intelligence in 2001, and then only appeared in films that audiences didn’t particularly like. Either the guy’s charm has diminished, or external prettiness still matters. In short, he never found his niche.

Jake Lloyd

Episode I: The Phantom Menace» did not stand the test of copper pipes - the film was released in 1999, and two years later Jake announced the end of his film career, citing filming in «Star Wars» as the reason - supposedly, «this role completely ruined his career, and he is completely exhausted by numerous interviews». A little illogical, isn't it? It would seem that popularity for an actor, especially a beginner (even before «Star Wars» Jake starred in films and TV series), is not the destruction of a career, but the opposite… However, Jake's strange behavior eventually received its explanation: in June 2015, the actor was detained by the police after a chase, he was charged with speeding, driving without a license, driving through a red light and resisting arrest. Jake's mother explained that Lloyd had schizophrenia, and that the attempt to hide from the police was caused by the fact that the boy had refused to take his medication for some time and had a breakdown. The diagnosis was later confirmed, and Lloyd was placed in a psychiatric hospital in April last year.

Maim Bialik

A photo: frame from the series "Blossom", Getty Images Actress became famous in childhood, since 1990 during six seasons starring in the series "Blossom." A pretty girl with age turned into a girl with a very peculiar appearance, which was used by the creators of the series "The Big Bang Theory", inviting Maim to the role of Amy Faraire, Sheldon's girlfriend. Of course, in "Theory ..." the actress has a characteristic role - such an ugly botanist, but in life she looks more attractive. However, Maim, in addition to his peculiar appearance, also has a peculiar voice that she successfully uses, voicing cartoon characters.

Edward Furlong

After his first success, he still had a couple of good roles ("American Heart" and "American History X"), but, having reached adulthood, Furlong began to passionately explore the previously forbidden world of alcohol and drugs. Largely because of this, he was not taken into the third "Terminator" - Edward was detained by the police several times for appearing in public places drunk, and the producers did not want to get involved with the scandalous actor. Over the years, the actor faded - his face with dark circles under his eyes eloquently tells about the bad habits of his owner, and, although his filmography includes more than a dozen films, he can no longer, of course, be called a star.
