Macaulay Culkin Is “OK,” Still Ruining Our Memory Of Him

Phew! The we were worried for a minute there, when we first took a gander at the pics Entertainment Tonight acquired of Macaulay Culkin, looking, um, rather unwell. But! “Macaulay Culkin is in perfectly good health,” his rep told ET. And to Us Weekly, the rep went even further: “Macaulay Culkin is in perfectly good health. For Entertainment Tonight or any other media to speculate otherwise is thoughtless, irresponsible and destructive.”

Well, yeah, but it’s kind of hard not to speculate when you can see the guy’s skull through his skin. And we were just concerned for the boy we grew up with. And we are kind of mad at him for ruining that. Well, not really. The guy’s 32. And he has done his darndest to break away from his adorable image by getting married at 17, getting arrested for drug possession, playing demented club kid Michael Alig in Party Monster and dating one of the hottest chicks on the planet, Mila Kunis. But he was so good in Saved! with Jena Malone and Mandy Moore, we thought it was a good sign of his potential beyond childhood cuteness.

Well, we’re prone to nostalgia around here, so here’s a look back at Macaulay Culkin in cuter times.

Macaulay Culkin Denies Porn Star Romance

Most guys wouldn’t actively deny hanging out with a smoking blond porn star. Then again, most guys didn’t just break up with earth angel Mila Kunis. Those photos of the two chilling at Barcelona-based sex club Bagdad have ended up online, Macaulay Culkin denies any relationship with porn star Irene Lopez. “As I do with many fans, I briefly met and took a photo with Irene Lopez at her request. I have had no contact with this woman in any capacity, social or otherwise before or since that picture was taken. Any reports to the contrary are false,” Culkin told E! Do you think Irene just hallucinated their relationship ala Black Swan? Maybe Lopez isn’t a porn star at all, just under a lot of stress to be perfect.

After dating Kunis for seven years straight, we guess catching Macaulay in the embrace of an adult actress would be a little out-of-character. “The reports that Macaulay Culkin is dating Irene Lopez are completely false. We are disappointed that Ms. Lopez has told E! Entertainment fictitious stories regarding Mr. Culkin,” Macaulay’s rep confirms. Moral of the story: if you’re a celebrity hanging out at a sex club, don’t be taking photos with just any old pornographer!

Mila Kunis And Macaulay Culkin Split

Macaulay Culkin & Mila Kunis

Celebrity couples who made it through 2010, give yourselves a pat on the back. Turns out the lost loves of last year included Macaulay Culkin and Mila Kunis, who met seven years ago when Mila was on That ’70s Show—before Culkin had even filmed Saved! And you thought Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens splitting was a bummer!

According to Page Six, Culkin and Kunis broke up at some unspecified date in the past, but kept things quiet while the actress was promoting her Critics’ Choice Movie Award-nominated role in Black Swan. Can’t blame the girl for avoiding endless queries about single life…until now, that is. While it’s likely the Home Alone star’s reclusive lifestyle clashed with Kunis’ increasing fame, we sure hope Justin Timberlake‘s alleged interest in Mila didn’t play a part in this. See photos of the couple in the gallery below.

Michael Jackson Laid To Rest At Private Funeral

Celebrities packed out the Forest Lane Memorial Park in California last night to finally lay Michael Jackson to rest. The King of Pop was finally buried, nearly two and a half months after he died, in a private ceremony that was filled with family and friends. Close confidante Elizabeth Taylor was there, as well as Macaulay Culkin, Chris Tucker, Mila Kunis and Jackson’s ex-wife Lisa Marie Presley.

His children Prince, Paris and Blanket placed a crown on his lily-strewn gold coffin along with notes which read “Daddy, we love you, we miss you”, according to the superstar’s brother, Marlon. All the Jackson brothers wore black armbands and one sequinned glove, in tribute to their sibling’s legendary image. [Photos: Getty Images]

Mac Daddy

And here we thought that if there was any chance that Michael Jackson was the real father to one of his kids, it would be the youngest, Blanket Jackson. The resemblance is there, and according to Blanket’s grandfather, Joe, the child has dance moves worth exploiting, so it made sense to assume the child might actually be Michael’s biological son.

So we’re finding the latest rumor about who might actually be Blanket’s father somewhat hilarious — UK paper The Sun is reporting that Macaulay Culkin, whose nickname is Mac, donated his sperm and conceived the child with an unknown surrogate mother because he would do anything to please his BFF. Culkin is also godfather to the two elder Jackson children. A source explained: “Deep down, I think he always wished Mack was his son. Creating Blanket was the next best thing.” The only real evidence we have that Culkin could be involved is the fact that he and Jackson both agreed that it don’t matter if you’re black or white.

The news is sketchy at best, but it never ceases to amaze us that in the time since Jackson’s death, there have been a dozen people who have speculated that they are these children’s parents. When are we going to let it go? [Photo: Getty Images]
