Commenters from all over the world continue to address this post on Corey Haim as if they were talking directly to him, and the missives are no longer just fawning. One recent personal message was full of tough love:

Haim, grow up, and see the light. The light is a man who has gone thru the same things you have, but chose to fix it. You are in major denial, and one jealoud boy. What you need is to get your ass kicked around, so some sense is knocked into you.

Oh wow. Are computers and reality really this confusing for some people?

"Don’t believe a word of it….its all self serving publicity spin…..we heard it all before when he moved to Spain. There is nothing new about these two….they go where the money is," said Billy yesterday, commenting on a story about a possible Beckham family move back to the UK. Though he used far too many ellipses, Billy Boy might be right on the money. Rumor is that the Beckhams, whose initial emigration from England was spawned by the promise of so much money, is learning the hard way that the dollar is half the man the pound is.

There’s … the topic of Victoria Beckham’s denim line, dVb. “It’s done about $15 million in retail when it was expected to have done $50 million by now,” [said] a well-placed retailer…

Reps for the Beckhams say the clothing line is “doing well,” and there aren’t plans for David to get out of his contract and move. However, another well-placed Beckham source said that the transition to the States hasn’t been as seamless as originally hoped, and the change in Victoria’s fame status has had something to do with that.

As you'll remember, the Spice Girls canceled their world tour due to rotten ticket sales.
