AI should be used to replace child actors ASAP. Acting professionally really seems to fuck up kids' entire lives.

I'm not surprised he was driven to drink after the childhood trauma of seeing all those dead people.

by Anonymousreply 2April 16, 2025 11:53 PM

It seems like he is an alcoholic? I hope that he gets help.

He’s a cutie. I wish the best for him.

Darn, just saw this headline and was going to post the thread with the title "I see drunk people."

Missed my shot.

Oh, and...I'm sorry that he's having a difficult time and all that.

He's obviously an alcoholic. He should be getting treatment instead of continuing to be involved in publicly intoxicated incidents.

[quote]Osment was booked for public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance ... which cops sent to a lab to determine exactly what it is.

Yikes. I hope he gets treatment and has a family who supports him.

Either his head is too big for his face, or his face is too small for his head; the proportions aren't right, like he isn't meant to be heavy.

by Anonymousreply 15April 17, 2025 1:17 AM

The booze bloat doesn't help with his weird proportions, R15. I just saw him in a little indie "Drugstore June" and he was decent in his small role. Hope he gets help, he seems messy.

I thought Osment was the very clear winner that year with Tom Cruise, of all people, the runner-up.

Michael Caine’s speech in which he recognized his fellow nominees was very classy that year.

He's really in that whole Macauley Culkin "cute child actors turn out ugly" club.

I found out today another child actor who had booze problems has died.

I had a crush on Matthew Newmark when he was on Paradise. He went through a few recovery programs but had a major relapse. He was found dead in his home in January. Some nice person saved his cats from a kill shelter.

Haley Joel Osment was such an incredible actor as a kid. This is sad.

by Anonymousreply 23April 17, 2025 2:21 AM

Haley Joel should have received a follow-up nomination in lead for A.I. Artificial Intelligence. That was an amazing performance.

Parents of famous child actors lock their kids into an identity they did not choose. Very risky.

by Anonymousreply 25April 17, 2025 2:51 AM

R25 Ron Howard always says that the secret to bring a successful child star is to pick the right parents. His made sure that success didn’t screw with his head.

by Anonymousreply 26April 17, 2025 2:57 AM

Yep, R26.

I remember an interview with Andy Griffith where he talks about the Opie character in the pilot episode. That Opie was on the verge of being bratty and disrespectful to his elders.

Rance Howard put his foot down and told producers and Andy their writing of the Opie character was unacceptable and irresponsible. And boy, did it stop.

I love that.

He should try Naltrexone.

From the moment I took the first tablet, my booze cravings vanished. It’s a miracle.

Surely he has decent medical care?

Man, I feel bad for him. He's had a lot of funny cameo roles on various shows and movies. So sad about his house. If the controlled substance was weed - HJO, stop drinking and driving or drinking and skiing. Do not put yourself in serious motion if drinking. Got it? Couches are your friend. Beds.

Better yet, do weed and don't drink. Be safe.

[quote]We're told the officer claimed Haley hurled the "K" word -- the Jewish slur -- but, also, oddly labeled him a "Nazi" as well. Not exactly consistent insults, but we digress.

[quote]Our sources say the police interaction was a really bad moment for Haley -- officers had their body cameras rolling during the incident, and the footage is expected to be released.

[...]

[quote]We also obtained video of Haley before the arrest, causing a stir as he attempted to get on a chair lift without his snowboard.

[quote]Haley was booked and released shortly after the arrest and the Mono County D.A. just charged him with two misdemeanors ... possession of cocaine and disorderly conduct under the influence of alcohol in public.

Mammoth Drunk at Mammoth Lakes

by Anonymousreply 50April 18, 2025 12:14 AM

Haley Joel Osment is apologizing after using racial slurs against a police officer while being arrested earlier this month.

The actor, 37, was arrested and booked for alleged public intoxication and possession of a controlled substance at a ski lodge in Mammoth Lakes, Calif., on Tuesday, April 8. On Thursday, April 17, the Mono County District Attorney's office said in a statement he was charged with possession of cocaine and disorderly conduct, and his arraignment is scheduled for June 7.

He is now issuing an apology for the "disgraceful language" he used while being arrested.

"I’m absolutely horrified by my behavior. Had I known I used this disgraceful language in the throes of a blackout, I would have spoken up sooner," Osment says in a statement shared with PEOPLE on Thursday, April 17. "The past few months of loss and displacement have broken me down to a very low emotional place."

Osment — who lost his home in the Altadena, Calif., home in the Eaton Fire in January — continued: "But that’s no excuse for using this disgusting word. From the bottom of my heart, I apologize to absolutely everyone that this hurts. What came out of my mouth was nonsensical garbage - I’ve let the Jewish community down and it devastates me. I don’t ask for anyone’s forgiveness, but I promise to atone for my terrible mistake."

In bodycam footage obtained by PEOPLE on Thursday, Osment is seen being placed under arrest and heard repeatedly claiming, "I'm being attacked."

When asked for his name, Osment repeats, "I'm an American."

Police then search the actor and recover a $20 bill before putting him in a police car. While speaking with bystanders at the scene, the officer unfolds the bill and discovers a substance inside, telling those around to "be careful."

It's unclear what was inside the $20 bill. A police source exclusively told PEOPLE on Wednesday that the "controlled substance" Osment was arrested for "is presumed to be cocaine. We sent it for testing. We will have the results soon."

In bodycam footage from inside the car, Osment is heard saying, "I'm being kidnapped by a f------ Nazi." He later calls the arresting officer a racial, antisemitic slur.

The actor has had legal trouble before. In 2018, police were called when Osment had a public verbal scuffle at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas on Super Bowl Sunday in 2018.

In 2006, when he was 18, Osment was charged with misdemeanor drunk driving after he was injured in a car accident. He later pleaded no contest to one count of driving under the influence of alcohol and one count of possession of marijuana and was sentenced to three years of probation.

I agree—and I have no great for Cruise. And I agree about Caine’s speech. Caine was, as always, very good, but not as haunting as Osment or as gutsy as Cruise. Given that Caine had already won a BSA for Hannah and Her Sisters, I assume voters wanted to reward Cider House (it also took screenplay for Irving), but not in BP.

Michael Clarke Duncan and Jude Law were also great. It was a really stacked year in that category.

There seems to be a paradox between having the money to be driven, making this kind of problem non-existent, and persisting to drive oneself while under the influence of ANYTHING, creating this problem.

I genuinely do not understand why not just hire a driver???
