Becoming an actor wasnโt a choice โ it was something I was forced into. At 3, you canโt make those choices... I supported my family, and if I got fired or missed an audition, Iโd be punished as if Iโd messed up in school. I was starved, because they wanted to keep my weight at a certain place; my hair was bleached โ that was my life. I wasnโt allowed to play with kids on my block or ride a bike or play ball, in case I got a scratch โ I wasnโt even allowed to be bar mitzvahed because I couldnโt attend enough lessons.
Corey FeldmanAs an actor, you're pretty much a hired gun. You are reading other people's words off of a page and doing what they want you to do.
Corey FeldmanI started working when I was three years old and was basically known before I knew who my own name was. My parents needed money, so at that time it became my responsibility to pay the bills.
