Kieran Culkin is so sexy.

Nice pits, too.

I love his performance as the gay roommate in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.

I’ve always thought he was the hottest Culkin brother by far, and he’s gotten better looking with age. Dark-eyed brunets are more my taste. I’d fuck the shit out of him.

I feel sorry for their dad.

He's a recluse now, and lives by himself.

Truth be told, his kids owe him for their success in acting.

Macauley had the burden of being the most famous child actor in the world.

[quote] Inside Macaulay Culkin’s tragic life with ‘abusive’ dad & sisters’ deaths

HE will forever be known as baby-faced Kevin McCallister, the impish 8-year-old who stole the show in Home Alone.

But incredibly, Macaulay Culkin has overcome a very turbulent few years to come out happier than ever as a new dad to his first child. While Macaulay revealed the happy baby news to Esquire on Monday and said they're "overjoyed,” the Home Alone actor hasn't always felt that way throughout his life.

His characters in the Home Alone and Richie Rich movies were hugely privileged and largely care-free, but the star's childhood off-screen couldn't have been more different.

Following his meteoric rise to fame, he watched his family slowly fall apart, before going through a painful emancipation from his parents - where he accused his father of leeching off his success.

The actor suddenly stopped appearing in movies and appeared unrecognizable on public outings, before later getting married at 18 and allegedly getting hooked on drugs.

While Macaulay earned millions practically overnight with his role in Home Alone, his family was reportedly very poor beforehand.

According to E! Online, Billy Hopkins, a New York casting director who gave a 6-year-old Macaulay his first part, said: "Macaulay would crawl under the bleachers at the theater to look for change that had fallen out of people's pockets. They were like the Beverly Hillbillies."

At the time it's claimed Macaulay's father Kit had got a job at a local Catholic church, helping him to get staff rates at the parish school, while his wife Patricia worked at a call centre.

However, all that changed when Macaulay began landing major roles in films like Rocket Gibraltar and comedy film Uncle Buck, which eventually led to Home Alone.

It brought him instant fame - along with a rumored $104K (£76,000) pay check for the first movie and £3.4M earnings for the second - and proved enough for Kit to quit his job in the church to help manage his son, alongside his wife.

The movie offers came rushing in and the next Home Alone movie reportedly grossed around $359million (£273M) - followed by more high-paying roles in My Girl and Richie Rich.

Macaulay went on to become the second-youngest celebrity to host Saturday Night Live, aged 11, and he also quickly established a highly publicized friendship with Michael Jackson - which subsequently meant he became caught up in the later child sex scandal surrounding the singer.

Macaulay has always denied anything inappropriate happened, however.

In an interview on the Inside of You With Michael Rosenbaum podcast, he explained how their friendship came to be and said: “A lot of things were happening, big and fast with me and I think he identified with that."

Macaulay's father Kit became hugely prominent in Hollywood too - so much so, Premiere magazine rated him the 48th most powerful person in Hollywood in 1993.

However, as he began to try and take more control over his son's movies, it's claimed his name was blacklisted - particularly when Richie Rich failed to receive the rave reviews of Home Alone.

In 2018, the actor told Marc Maron's WTF podcast that his father was "physically and mentally" abusive and that he was "jealous" of what he had achieved at such a young age.

"Everything he tried to do in life, I excelled at before I was 10 years old," he added.

Kit and Patricia announced they were separating after 20 years in 1994 - and it sparked the start of a bitter custody war.

In her legal petition, Patricia accused Kit of “excessive drinking, physical abuse and unfaithful behaviour", all of which he denied.

While Macaulay reportedly sided with his mom at the time, he later effectively 'divorced' both his parents when they began fighting over his fortune.

He sued his parents for £13million when he was just 15 years old and had them removed as his legal guardians, meaning they had no control over his career or money, and also prompted him to eventually quit acting altogether.

"I wanted to take a break for a while and eventually I was like 'I'm done guys, hope you all made your money because there is no more coming from me'," he told the WTF podcast.

Kit went on to move to Arizona where he lives a reclusive life now and is thought to have no contact with his son.

Asked if he heard from Macaulay, Kit allegedly replied: "I don't consider him a son any more."

Having retired aged 15, Macaulay went on to marry actress Rachel Miner in 1998 at just 18.

The couple separated in 2000 and divorced in 2002.

He went on to date actress Mila Kunis for almost a decade.

Macaulay has also been plagued by rumours of heroin addiction in the past - something he later denied. "I was not pounding six grand of heroin a month."

Macaulay has since looked happier and healthier than ever and in a recent interview, he said: "I played with some fire, I guess is the best way to put it. At the same time, I’ve never been to rehab or anything like that."

He added: "Besides the occasional muscle relaxer, no, I don’t do drugs recreationally. I still kinda drink like a fish. I drink and I smoke. But I don’t touch the things."

Since July 2017, Macaulay has been in a relationship with actress Brenda Song, who gave birth to their first child together, son Dakota named after Macaulay's late sister.

Dakota Culkin was killed in a car accident in 2008 when she was just 29.

She “was struck by a car when she stepped off the curb and in front of a moving vehicle," according to E! News.

Eight years earlier, Macaulay had lost his half-sister, Jennifer Adamson, after she died in 2000 from a drug overdose.

The star looks to be the happiest he's been in years on recent outings, having firmly put the difficult times behind him.

Kieran looks a bit like Daniel Radcliffe.

meh....I won't be fighting you for him. Hope you marry and enjoy your life together.

I loved Igby Goes Down. It’s a great movie.

Kieran looks a lot like his dad.

Is the Culkin family Irish Travelers?

Hair is what I don't like about him.

Cute but annoying

Rory is pretty good looking too.

They're pretty ugly, Rory and Kieran, but better than way ugly Macaulay. We won't see this douche again now that Succession is over.

Kieran’s lucky - not a great actor. Not a looker.

He's a dweeb.

R5 R6 WHAT IS YOUR ISSUE? Posting at length an article from over 3 years ago about a person who is NOT Kieran Culkin.

I fucking hate Nice pits poster

He was hottest when he played gay in Scott Pilgrim.

I'm upset the really cute guy with glasses he made out with at the bar never showed up again, even in the scene where he's sleeping with two other flings. And it's weird that he seems to settled down with the LEAST attractive guy he makes out with in the movie.

Are the Culkin brothers close? Do Kieran and Rory have any kind of relationship with the parents?

R7 For the love of GOD, the people never look alike. NEVER. You're killing us with this

Does Macaulay get any kind of residuals for HOME ALONE? Does he have to work or is he set for life?

The tailoring on Roman’s outfits always makes Kieran’s chest and ass look so good.

I read some interview in which they asked Kieran about his childhood & he said something like "I wasn't making enough $$ for anyone to pay much attention to me" (or something like that) - which kind of makes me think there's a good reason that none of them talk to the old man.

Rory looks unhinged and has Ellen DeGeneres eyes to me. Kieran is the only sexually viable Culkin brother.

r22 I googled that because I was curious.

Kieran Culkin is third from the left... the two on the left are his fuck buddies, and the guy on his right is his asshole straight roomate:

Making out with a guy
