'That's why they call me the comeback king.' For our Summer 2023 issue, the '80s teen idol turned rocker CoreyFeldman reminisces on life in and out of the spotlight and takes us on an exclusive tour of his Hollywood-themed home.
COREY FELDMAN: Hi, Mel.OTTENBERG: I’m good. Thank you so much for doing this. I’m so psyched.. I remember in the ’90s I thought, man, all the coolest people do that magazine. So I’m glad we finally found each other.later, but we still get all the right people. One day I was on TikTok watching a video of you performing “Cry Little Sister” and I was like, “I love that fucking song. We need Corey Feldman now.”again last night. It’s so good.
FELDMAN: Yeah, I’m in the middle of doing appearances. We’re gearing up for a big world tour so we’re in the process of planning it out. That video you’re talking about, it got 4.5 million views in three days. The guy who originally posted it was trying to diss me and it backfired on him because it showed the masses how good that performance was, and it got people to come see us on tour.FELDMAN: It’s nostalgia, and we’re having a great time. My new album is calledwith Love.
come back and do interviews. There’s a lot of amazingly talented people involved, like Michael Damian, Mickey Thomas, and of course Curtis Young, who did the single “Comeback King” with me. Curtis is [Dr.] Dre’s son. I got a thing for working with rappers. I did “Go 4 It!” with Snoop Dogg, and then Fred Durst and I did a killer song on my last album.
OTTENBERG: Right. I was saying that in a non-sensitive way. What I meant is, real talents where you’re like, “Fuck, they’re amazing.”OTTENBERG: But did it take you a long time to get over your difficult past? How’d you do that? FELDMAN: The ’80s have become a coveted time period, and I think that’s because the films back then were so much more naturalistic and there was more depth to the characters. They put more energy into the cinematography and the making of those films. A lot of that art has been lost. Now, it’s about who can make the snappiest, most impressive CGI picture in each frame. But it’s painting it as opposed to letting life paint it itself.
