OlderOwen Wilson Takes People Cover
After the lovable star’s shocking suicide attempt, friends open up about the dark side of a funny man who had it all…
Owen Wilson naturally takes the front cover of People this week two days after being hospitalized for an attempted suicide. It’s a bit more of a dignified approach to Owen’s “addition, despair and secret pain” compared to Us Weekly’s salacious cover. The world needs both apparently!
Owen, 38, also just dropped out of the DreamWorks’ ensemble comedy Tropic Thunder, according to Variety.
“Ben [Stiller] and Owen have made eight movies together,” a source close to the project said. “And he can’t wait to work with Owen again. It’s just not going to be on this film.” Stiller began shooting the film in Hawaii six weeks ago.
Tropic also stars Jack Black. Bigger Owen cover pic inside…

He is ugly buffff

To say a funny man who HAD it all seems wrong to me. He still has it all but just needs some time to get through this dark time in his life. Come on people, talk like that isn’t appropriate. God bless you Owen.
I agree with Susan. He needs to heal and to be left alone to do so. There is certainly nothing ugly about Owen Wilson and I’ll be there to see his next movie if and when he choses to make one. Our prayers are
with him and his family.
Hmmm… I wonder what he meant by “privacy” - I guess the media perceives it as let’s splash his story everywhere and then we’ll leave him alone (once we sell our ad space)!
Jeez, how do they get this to cover story in just two days? Talk about intrusive. What the **** does people know of his “secret pain?” They just know how to make a buck off it.
i giess he made every tabloid cover this week.. shame about what his going through
Suicide is so selfish. I’m glad he didn’t succeed. His family must feel just awful.
he’s so hot. I hope he gets better!
Hope the JP freaks take a long hard look at reality - ppl may seem happy on the outside and lie and say they are but deep down there is obviously not happiness.
He and Ben rock together! Get well

I agree with you Susan. It is so sad that people use a time like this to kick some when they are down just cuz they really don’t like themselves. May God bless you always, Owen.

Nice.
Your attempt to be poignant just missed the mark.
Grow up or get a binkie.
I’m not surprised at all. A lot of comics who earn a living making people laugh are sad when it comes to their private life.

Sad story so many funny men struggle and sadly we have lost many (Chris Farley, Phil Hartman, Jim Belishi) but luckly he made it through and seeks help
I wonder how these paps and magazine editors would feel if people did this to their families…have some respect for God’s sake!
If he had a secret, he doesn’t anymore. I really didn’t expect this from People. This is National Enquirer material. I will not purchase this magazine and hope others follow. Don’t make money off of someone else’s pain.
Poor guy, now he’s going to be paranoid too!
SO MUCH FOR GIVING HIM HIS PRIVACY ..AFTER HIS PUBLICIST TOLD THE WORLD
HE IS NOT ADDICTED TO HEROIN..MAKING UP BULL SO THAT HE LOOKS LIKE A
COMPLETE IDIOT..MAKING KATE HUDSON PAY FOR WHAT HAPPENED .. WHEN SHE
DID NOTHING WRONG.. SHE IS PROBABLY ANNOYED ABOUT THE WHOLE THING..
I agree to Susan, Lobo and Miwanna.
It’s absolutely tasteless of the tabloids now to try to make money of the suffer (whatever it is which led him to do that) of a man who should be left alone now by the public to have time to spend with his family and with people who really matter to him and to reorganize his life.
Such magazines should be boycotted and NOT bought.
why do brilliant minds (talented and geniuses) always have a dark side? either got drug problems or mentally instable? Owen was a brilliant writer and he was also succumbed to this?
Excellent suggestion Lillianne and others who suggested not letting People profit from Owen’s pain. I won’t be buying or reading this week. Heal in peace Owen.
I am really disgusted with the press on this intrusion, and I’m boycotting ET, Insider and Access H’wd, I don’t buy all those magazines anyway. They won’t respond to respectful appeals for PRIVACY. There is no need for the public to know everything about this RIGHT NOW!!!
Thank goodness for his family and friends, not to mention members of the public like the people above that wish him well.
I agree with you Lilianne but we live in a society that loves to rake people over when they are not on top. We have this feeling that we have the right to know and then everyone gives their opinions about it like it’s facts. I wouldn’t want to be a celebrity for anything in the world. None of these rags or blogs would profit if we didn’t read their material.
Sorry to hear that People has now stooped to the trashoid level as BSWeekly, In Touch, Life & Style, Star….the list is endless. Praying for Owen to get the help that he needs at this difficult time. My thoughts and prayers are with him and his friends and family.
He went to church to ask for help, God blessed him in the most exposed-humbling way!
