 Brad Renfro: Warned of perils of drugs in 'last' interview
Brad Renfro's ast interview is being made public only now, since actor Brad Renfro died of a heroin overdose one month back.
In his last known interview with a cell phone entertainment content provider, Portable Hollywood, Brad Renfro, just a month before his death, looking bloated and older than his 25 years, almost prophetically warned about the woes of growing up in Hollywood.
A lot of people, unfortunately enough, aren't able to traverse through things like that and come out on the other side you know, and a lot of people don't make it. They don't live through it," he said.
Brad Renfro even had advice for newcomers.
"I would tell them to stay them to stay the hell away from the party scene," he said.
After his first drug arrest, ironically, that was the same message a 16-year-old Brad Renfro shared with an interview 10 years ago.
"My message to anyone out there who's never done drugs - is to never do them," he said.
After years of struggling with alcohol and drug addiction, including more arrests, like one during an undercover drug raid on LA's Skid Row in 2005, Renfro died in his LA home on January 15, 2008 from an accidental heroin overdose. Tragically, Brad never learned his own lesson.
Soon after Brad Renfro's death, his obituary revealed a shocking secret - a son, referred to only as Y. Renfro. The four-year-old, reportedly named Yamato, lives in Japan with his mother and did not attend his father's Knoxville Tennessee funeral.
Nor did good old grandmom Joanne Renfro, who raised Brad Renfro. She was too sick to go.
In a tragic twist of fate, Joanne also passed away, just two weeks after her beloved grandson.  |
