Rep: Macaulay Culkin in “Good Health,” Despite Internet Speculation

(Entertainment Tonight)

The Internet is buzzing with speculation that Macaulay Culkin has some sort of health problem after Entertainment Tonight published a photo of the actor looking underweight in New York City on Wednesday.

ET writes that the Home Alone star looked “extremely thin and scruffy” in photos “that are likely to spark concern for the actor’s health.”

Numerous blogs then reprinted the photo, circulating baseless rumors that Culkin is seriously sick.

However, a rep for Culkin tells Gossip Cop, “Macaulay Culkin is in perfectly good health,” adding, “For Entertainment Tonight – or any other media – to speculate or suggest otherwise is reckless, irresponsible and destructive.”

The former child star’s next film project is reportedly the British military comedy-drama Service Man, slated for a 2013 release.

    I’m not saying that it’s right for them top start baseless rumors about other people’s health, but I can see why it got started. What happened to him? He looks like he’s a 40 year old smoker!

    I would love to see other pictures from that day. There’s a possibility that this particular picture was just taken at an unfortunate time and angle.

    The deal here is that Macaulay Culkin as a kid was adorable, but Macaulay Culkin as an Adult grew into an odd looking character facially, and is gangly…Add in the stupid facial hair and BOOM he just looks horrid.
    I dont think hes sick, I think he just ist the Home Alone kid anymore..
    Its like that Aaron Carter kid, he was cute as a rapping hip hop kid but as an adult he looks like a mechanic at Pep Boys!
