About Corey Feldman

Corey Scott Feldman (born July 16, 1971) is an American actor, activist, and musician. As a youth, he became well known for his roles in popular 1980s films such as Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984), Gremlins (1984), The Goonies (1985) and Stand by Me (1986). Feldman collaborated with Corey Haim starring in numerous films such as the comedy horror The Lost Boys (1987), the teen comedy License to Drive (1988) and the romantic comedy Dream a Little Dream (1989). They reunited for the A&E reality series The Two Coreys, which ran from 2007 to 2008. Feldman experienced diminishing success in the film industry as an adult, following well-publicized personal conflicts. In the 21st century, he has become known for a string of appearances on various reality TV shows such as Celebrity Wife Swap in 2015, Celebrity Marriage Boot Camp in 2020, The Masked Singer in 2024, and Dancing with the Stars in 2025 where he was eliminated first. While he has been outspoken about sexual abuse in the entertainment industry, he has also faced public scrutiny over Corey's Angels and has also been accused of sexual misconduct. Feldman has released six studio albums, including Love Left (1992), Former Child Actor (2002), and Angelic 2 the Core (2016). His music has received widespread negative critical attention and has been mocked online. The Lost Boys marked the first onscreen pairing of Feldman and Haim, who became known as "The Two Coreys". In October 2013, Feldman released his first memoir, Coreyography.
