But now, in his new tell-all autobiography ‘Coreyography’, Corey Feldmanreveals that he’s secretly battled many personal demons, which led to years ofdrug and alcohol abuse starting at the age of 14.

‘Thatwas the guy who I had hanging up posters in my wall.’‘Thanks.’You don’tnecessarily see the coolest guy..’‘I’m very self-critical; I can’t help it.’

Parts ofthat self-critisism comes from his tumultuous relationship with his parents.

‘How much pressure was it to be the bread winner?’‘There was nobody else tobringing the family income. The bottom line is this-children should not be partof the work force.’

Despitehis negative views about child stars, when pressed, Feldman admits that not allof his Hollywood memories were bad ones.

‘Gremlineswas the most fun. I mean I really had a great time.’

In fact,he was on the set of ‘The Goonies’ where he met his idol and future friend, theking of pop, and he believes there’s more to the stories behind Michael Jackson’sdeath.

‘I thinkMichael was much more involved with himself, and I don’t mean an accidentaldrug overdose.’ ‘Do you think he wanted to die?’ ‘This is it, it’s all I’mgonna say, this is it, this is it!’

Feldmansaid it was the lost of his best friend, and fellow child star Corey Haim in2010 that finally drove him to write the book. He attributes his untimely deathto what he calls ‘Hollywood’s biggest secret’.

‘Yousaid the one problem in Hollywood was, is, and always will be the pedophilia.’ ‘Here’sthe part that really gets me. I gave the police the names of my predators. Didany of those men get investigated? No. All they wanted to hear was onename-Michael Jackson. And guess what, when I told them over and over and overMichael Jackson did nothing to me, but this guy did, but this guy did.’ ‘Theydidn’t even investigate?’ ‘Never investigated, never investigated that thosemen are walking free today.’
