Owen Wilson was hooked on drugs

Owen Wilson was reportedly struggling with depression and hooked on heroin and cocaine, and it was his drug addiction that caused his breakup with Kate Hudson. And who’s to blame for all this? Apparently some British guy named Steve Coogan. The New York Post reports:

“I went through it with Steve,” Coogan’s former girlfriend, rocker Courtney Love, told US.

“I was just out of rehab, and he was right there with the drugs. I tried to warn Owen. I tried to warn his friends. I hope from the bottom of my heart that Owen stays the hell away from that guy.”

Wilson’s addiction was so severe, his pal Woody Harrelson tried to stage an intervention at his home in Maui.

“Owen went to Maui, Hawaii, to kick his habit,” a longtime Wilson pal told the mag. “He was like a baby on that couch.”

The friend said that heroin was the first thing that came to mind when Wilson and Hudson split and he suddenly “disappeared off the face of the earth.”

“I thought, briefly, he might be back on heroin, but we all really felt he’d kicked that ages ago,” his friend said.

It’s bad enough this Steve Coogan guy basically made Owen Wilson want to kill himself, but you seriously have to reexamine your life if Courtney Love calls you a bad influence. I saw her make out with a hypodermic needles once and the only complaint she had was that it was “kind of pokey.”

    He grew up in the most posh neighborhood in Dallas, he was sent to Military school as a teen because of his behavior issues, and now, drugs? Big Fucking Surprise. I hate rich kids.

    Luke Wilson rules, however. Hotness factor is up there.

    Normally I would make a comment about what a scummy person this is and that they can go fuck themselves, but there really are soooo many worse people than Owen Wilson. I, too, hope that he can kick that shit.

    Right, so OW’s addictions are due to someone else not his inability to keep straight and just not get hooked in the first place….. Didn’t love claim to be pregnant with Coogans baby once? Coogans funny, bloody funny, one of the best comedy actors of all time, Wilson may be more famous but has about a 10th of the talent and isn’t remotley as funny.

    Monkey Tennis any one?

    Great opportunity for Courtney to pull off a double homicide and finish it off with a well over due suicide.

    Well that’s just great. He’s not just a whiney wimp who “tries” to commit suicide like a 15 year old girl, he’s also a spineless drug addict. I know, let’s hand him some more money and fame and see if he feels better. Poor fella – what a hard life, being the brother who’s always seen as the lesser talent. Wait, he’s the successful one. Poor thing.

    Hi, I’m Owen Wilson. I’m known as the “Butterscotch Stallion” because of my hair and complexion, plus I’m reputed in Hollywood as having a big dick. This public knowledge has enabled me to fuck the hell out of tons of movie stars (like Kate Hudson) and normal chicks alike; despite the fact that my nose looks like a kid’s Play-Doh creation and I have a voice that melts concrete. Every movie I’m in is fucking funny and has made me a ton of money. Oh, yeah… I’m rich too.

    So, I decided to try to end it this week. Cut my wrist, took some pills, called it good.

    I like Owen Wilson and I have to give him props for being able to keep in on the down low. That said, it sucks to be hook’d on anything. And yet, he kept working. Otherwise, I’d like to go on record and call him a douche for riding both the horse AND pony, and also to hope he finally leaves them alone.

    Heroin is NOT yummy! First it makes you barf, then it makes you nod. Not whatcha’d call a sociable party drug.

    Now, smack and coke consumed at the same time will the top of your head off.

    I only did it the once, deciding afterward that I’d rather keep my brains inside my skull casing.

    That said, I like Owen and his movies and I was really pretty surprised by this recent news.

    Fuck him. If Owen Wilson tries to kill himself, then I should find a way to go back in time and off myself right after high school. That was the time that my potential was greatest. At my funeral, people would comment that “he was taken from us so young… he could have been a doctor or a lawyer.”

    In reality and ironically, those are the two professions I’ve required most since I graduated high school.

    Bite me, Owen Wilson. Sorry life was so fucking good for you. Try not to get a blow job in the recovery ward… wouldn’t want you to slip deeper into depression.

    I met Steve Coogan. He looks like shit and is really tiny, when he walks down a hall it’s like you’re back in the 18th century hanging out with Napoleon. He’s kind of like a grown baby who barely seems to know where he is. I can very easily see how he would take a woman down, since women love charming, insane, drugged-out douchebags, but not Owen Wilson. Then again, Owen Wilson is a woman.
