Actor Macaulay Culkin shared a rare insight into his personal life in an interview with the radio program WTF . The Home Alone star talked about his turbulent childhood after the glory of fame as well as the reason why he soon hated fame.

“My father was a terrible person,” Macaulay confided, “He abused me both physically and mentally. I could show you all the scars if I wanted to do that.”

Macaulay affirmed that his father always threatened his son with words like: “Do well or you will be beaten.” The 37-year-old actor said that his father hated him because he was jealous of his son’s popularity: “Everything he tried to do in his whole life, I did excellently before I was 10 years old. I am a A better dancer than him, a more talented actor than him.” Mr. Kit Culkin was also an actor but was not very famous.

Being threatened and forced to act in movies to make money is the reason why Macaulay Culkin is depressed. He confided: “I wanted to quit acting for a while and even said: ‘I’ve done enough, Mom and Dad, I hope you make your own money because you won’t get anything more from me.’

Macaulay Culkin at that time was considered a “money printing machine” because this child star continuously received movie contracts with millions of dollars in salary. Besides movies, Macaulay also participated in many television shows, music videos and advertising contracts that helped him gain a huge fortune even though he was just a teenager.

When he was 15 years old, Macaulay sued his parents because they fought over the management of his $17 million fortune. Macaulay eventually won the case, removing parental supervision so he could manage all of his assets himself. In 1995, Macaulay’s parents divorced and he said it was “one of the best things that ever happened”. The actor then still supported his mother, but has been away from his father ever since.

After a long time away from his acting career, Macaulay Culkin will return to the big screen this year with the movie Changeland – co-starring with his girlfriend Brenda Song.
