Owen Wilson Tries to Commit Suicide...

[Mr. Henry Gale]

QUOTE

Actor Owen Wilson was rushed to hospital on Sunday after allegedly attempting suicide. Star magazine and the National Enquirer claim the 38-year-old actor was taken to St. John's hospital in Santa Monica, Calif. by ambulance after police and paramedics responded to a 911 call from Wilson's home shortly after noon. According to the report, a family member found Wilson with a sliced left wrist. He also allegedly took an unknown quantity of pills. Santa Monica Police refused to provide details but confirmed that a person was transported to hospital for treatment. Wilson was reportedly transferred to Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles in stable condition after his wrist was sutured and bandaged. His parents and brothers, including actor Luke Wilson, were at his side. The star is currently filming Tropic Thunder in Hawaii with Ben Stiller and has two more films lined up. His movies include You, Me and Dupree and Starsky & Hutch. Wilson's relationship with Kate Hudson ended earlier this year.

Not sure if these are legit not. If so...kind of sad. I always thought the dude was funny. Wierd enough, Owen Wilsona and Stiller were filming their new movie in Kauai when I was over there. A lady on the plan flight over with us, had a son that worked on the set. She was going to visit it etc (or so she claims).

You got this from the Star?

 

 

I see.

[GeddyRulz]

He just doesn't seem the "type" to try it. Hmm.

 

I like his brother Luke better, but Owen's okay too. I liked "Wedding Crashers."

 

[lerxt1990]

Legit news orgs saying hes been hospitalized after a medical call to his house. Details seem scarce right now...

[Mr. Henry Gale]

I live in Southern California, and all the news station/radio stations are saying it's true.

 

But who knows?

 

D-Rock sorry if I posted a bad news source.

[Arleen2112]

I like Owen Wilson as an actor, he's funny as hell

I hope everything is ok with him

[Mr. Henry Gale]

As of now, I think it's safe to say, we should wait for a more legit news source to confirm this.

 

I do hope he is okay tho. Really like him as an actor.

[-D-RocK-]

Well, I hope he'll be okay, he's obviously a gifted actor. What a waste it would have been if he succeeded in killing himself.

 

 

Perhaps the pressure of Hollywood got the better of him. Personally, I think being famous it would totally suck ass. I've never quite understood the infatuation with becoming a movie star but, to each their own.

Agreed. Would suck so much to have no privacy. Then again..it would be awesome to have loads of money, and a nice lifestyle.

 

I guess with every positive theres a negative.

That's what I've always said about celebrity... there's got to some downside to it! There is with any job.

[rushgoober]

CNN says nothing about suicide. I'll wait to hear that from a legit news source before I believe THAT part of the story.

Neither does Mr. Peart.

 

[Lady April]

I saw this on my comcast front page. It's really sad to me because I really like Owen. He is an amazing actor and very funny. For whatever reason this happened to him I wish him my best and send him good, positive energy

Hollywood actor Owen Wilson is recovering in hospital this morning after a reported suicide attempt.

 

Wilson was admitted to hospital on Sunday, apparently after being discovered at his home with his wrist slashed and an empty bottle of pills by his side.

 

The 38-year-old comic, who starred in Starksy and Hutch, Wedding Crashers and You, Me and Dupree, was reportedly treated for dehydration and a possible drug overdose.

 

Wilson recently broke up with actress Kate Hudson and there is media speculation that this may be related to his condition.

[iluvgeddy05]

[Mr. Henry Gale]

So looks like this is true?

We are very good actors when we want to be.

We are always the last ones you suspect.

 

There is no "type".

[nobodys hero]

I hope he will be alright.. he has so much to live for!

[lerxt1990]

Actors are people too. And musicians. Reference Richard Jeni, and Brad Delp who were, sadly, successful in their suicide attempts.

 

This is a shame. I just watched Wedding Crashers yesterday, whcih is hysterical.

It's hilarious!

[lerxt1990]

How about this exchange:

 

There he is!

It's the big guy! Get in here.

 

 

 

Wait till you see the spread.

Anything you want.

 

 

 

Yeah, well, get

what you want to go.

 

 

 

The ferry leaves in minutes.

We gotta get outta here.

 

 

 

Whoa, what's your problem?

Have some of this stuff.

 

 

 

I didn't get a lot of sleep

last night, John. I'm fried.

 

 

 

- Soft mattress?

- Yeah, that could've been it.

 

 

 

It could have been the soft mattress.

Or, it could've been

 

 

 

the midnight rape... or the nude, gay art

show that took place in my room...

 

 

 

one of those probably added

to the lack of sleep...

 

 

 

Try one of these scones,

you're gonna love 'em.

 

 

 

I'm a little traumatized

to have a scone. Let's move.

 

 

 

Will you slow down for a second?

The whole eyedrop thing backfired.

 

 

 

Okay? It didn't work. She had to

leave me and go attend to him.

 

 

 

Why are you looking

at me like that?

 

 

 

You're falling

for this broad.

 

 

 

No! I just met her.

 

 

 

Exactly.

I'm gonna go.

 

 

 

- You can't go.

- Watch me.

 

 

 

Watch me take this

on down the road.

 

 

 

If you leave, Gloria is gonna freak out

and throw a shit fit,

 

 

 

and it's gonna go into crisis lockdown

mode here at the house.

 

 

 

I don't give

a baker's f**k!

 

 

 

I just had my own sock duct-taped

into my mouth last night!

 

 

 

- Whoa, what?

- Yeah, the sock

 

 

 

that I wore around all day,

 

 

 

playin' football in,

pouring sweat in,

 

 

 

was shoved into my mouth,

and there was duct tape over it!

 

 

 

Well, let's talk about it.

I'm a good listener.

 

 

 

I'm not in a place to discuss

what happened. Okay?

 

 

 

I felt like Jodie Foster

in "The Accused" last night.

 

 

 

I'm gonna go home,

see Dr. Finkelstein

 

 

 

and I'm gonna tell him...

we got a whole new bag of issues,

 

 

 

we can forget about

Mom for a while. I'm gonna go.

 

 

 

Suit yourself.

 

 

[lerxt1990]

Or this:

 

What's wrong with you? Why you got

the weird look all over your face?

 

 

 

Claire's mom just made

me grab her hooters.

 

 

 

Well, snap out of it!

What? A hot, older woman

 

 

 

made you feel her cans?

Stop crying like a little girl.

 

 

 

I wasn't crying

like a little girl.

 

 

 

Why don't you try getting jacked off under

the table in front

 

 

 

of the whole damn family and have

some real problems? Jackass.

 

 

 

What were they like, anyway?

They look pretty good. Are they real?

 

 

 

Are they built for speed or for comfort?

What you do with 'em? Motorboat?

 

 

 

You play the motorboat?

Ppppt!

 

 

 

You motorboatin' son of a bitch.

You old sailor, you!

 

 

 

Where is she?

She still in the house?

 

 

 

What is

wrong with you?

 

 

 

What do you mean what's wrong with...

what's wrong with you?

 

 

 

- No, what's wrong with you?

- No, what's wrong with you?

 

 

 

- You're projecting.

- Drop it.

 

 

 

You drop it!

You stop projecting on me.

 

 

 

Why don't you go enjoy yourself while

I go ice my balls and spit up blood?

If it is true, he's an idiot. If you've ever had someone close to you die, you'll know that life isn't something you just give up because things aren't going your way. What a waste.
