Back In The Swing O' Things

Filed under: Owen Wilson

a77820738.jpg

Owen Wilson attended the Guggenheim International Gala in NYC on Thursday night.

The actor, who was hospitalized for an attempted suicide just a few months ago, was seen hitting up the hotspots in Manhattan since he arrived last week.

He's been spotted at the Waverly Inn and the Rose Bar.

Rumored new girlfriend Jessica Simpson was not with Wilson at the Guggenheim gala. She's not that into art. But she does love poetry!

Whatever happened to that book of poetry and photography that Jessica wanted to release???

      Bad decision. Jessica will drive him right back to the edge! I love art and would've been thrilled to attend this.

      I hope Jessica is very careful, and sensitive when it comes time to dump Owen. He doesn't do break-ups well. Maybe they'll just happen to be walking by the psych ward when she tells him "it's not you, it's me" or "let's just be friends".

      whereas there used to be so much fun and a lust for life in his eyes, now they just seem totally vacant. so sad.

    27. Rose says – reply to this


      27

      He's looking much better

    28. Calliope10 says – reply to this

      Re: Cassie – You are SO right - whatever meds they've got him on - it's sad…If he needs to be kept that medicated so as not to hurt himself again, shouldn't he be in a hospital or at least a rehab? Also, I don't believe the story about him doing it for Kate. That's PR trying to spin things away from drugs and depression and preserve his status as a sensitive and romantic leading man. Sigh. Owen, baby - try to stay well…

      Jessica dumb ass proably don't even kno art is in the first place

      30

      He looks bad…tired and strung…he doesn't look like his old self…virbrant and hot….he looks "aged" and ragged…this sucks, I really do like his acting and I think he's hot…I hope he doesn't end up like Chris Farley…he's so talented.

    31. voxie says – reply to this


      31

      LET'S LOOK AT THIS A DIFFERENT WAY. PEZIE, PLEASE TRY AND FOLLOW:

      GLAD TO SEE HE IS DOING WELL. APPEARS HE'S ENOYING HIMSELF "HITTING THE HOTSPOTS" AS IT WERE I'M SURE SOBER, CLEAN AND GETTING HIMSELF TOGETHER WITHOUT SITTING IN A DARK ROOM OR DESTROYING HIMSELF LIKE SHITNEY AND MEL GIBSON .
      I'D LIKE TO KNOW WHO THE FUG IS POSING WITH HIM THOUGH?

      LOLOLOLOLOLOOLO.

      WISH HIM THE BEST.

    32. Selena says – reply to this


      32

      I think that he looks well here. You have to remember that he's still recovering as well. He isn't going to be back to his old self overnight. And the best way to get well is slowly and steadily which is more effective in the long term.

    33. get over it!!!!! says – reply to this


      33

      What do you guys think he should be doing after his suicide attempt….you have to attept to put you life back together and go on…not dwell on about what drove you to the pits of despair in the 1st place…would you like him to try and kill himself again people…let him get out and get on with his life people….that is what you need to do after stuff like this happens…you can't sit there and dwell on it and hide in your house and think about what you did…idiots

    34. YumYum says – reply to this


      34

      He looks far more relaxed and human than he did a few months ago. He doesn't have that frantic look in his eyes. Hope he has made it through everything okay. If that is him on medication, then so be it. That's why meds were invented- to help people or try to, at any rate. He looks normal now. And that is a GOOD thing.

      Judging by this picture alone, looks like he's on the right track. Looks great.

      I was at this event last nite! The evening included big celebs such as Owen, Dennis Hopper & Tony Bennett. Good times, good times!

    37. Bitch Needs Help says – reply to this


      37

      Owen ain't looking that good…I hope he continues his treatment…he definitely needs it.

      Stay away Jessica…you don't need that drama!

    38. Say What!?! says – reply to this


      38

      Yeah - Owen looks good - for a zombie!! "Ba-ba-baba-ba-ba-ba-baba–I Wanna Be Sedated!" Loved him frantic and funny — Is he only going to act in depressing movies from now on? Too much money, too many women, too much drugs - welcome to your nervous breakdown, blondie…

    39. becky says – reply to this


      39

      I think that he's looking great

    40. Selena says – reply to this


      40

      Of course he doesn't have to act in only depressing films. He's an actor loads of people know the difference between film and real life. I can't believe the pleasure that some others seem to take at others misfortunes.

      Does ANYONE believe Wes Anderson when he claims that his suicidal, drug-addicted, successful yet secretly insecure and occasionally paranoid characters in his films are NOT based on Owen Wilson? Sure - that's all just one big coincidence, right, Wes?

    42. Sarah says – reply to this


      42

      I'd believe what Wes Anderson says himself personally over what others who dont really know anything about the matter except what they read in the media say.

      owen does not look well. the eyes are dead

    44. Sophie says – reply to this


      44

      He does look quite well especially if you compare to how he looks in other recent pictures. For some reason like someone posted above people seem to think that he be back to his old self over night. He's still recovering and no doubt still on medication to help him which is good. But it's going to take time he's not going to look his best less then 3 months after the event took place.

      "Whatever happened to that book of poetry and photography that Jessica wanted to release?"

      She couldn't figure out how to focus the camera on the poetry. True quote: "Like - how do you photograph words? Duh! Words are spoken things."

      That's what she is rumored to have said. No, not really. But it wouldn't surprise me. Jess, sweetie darling, you forgot to take off the lens cap!!!!

      When are people going to learn??? Depression, alcoholism, drug addiction is the result of a metabolic disturbance!! Medication may get you somewhat stablized (see pic above) but it NEVER EVER HEALS. He just needs time..WTF? All the time in the world will not heal an illness without getting to the root cause and HEALING it. And rehab….most people don't realize the success rate is around 10%. Good for him for not going. I'd bet all my pennies this guy has pyroluria and gluten/casein/whey intolerances. God bless Owen.

      Pyroluria

      It runs in families, and pyrolurics often suffer from "fatigue, nausea, eyes that are sensitive to light, coldness, anemia, poor dream recall, white flecks/spots on their nails and even suicidal depression. They tend to have pale skin and an inability to tan because of too little B6 and zinc to produce pigment coloring. Despite the burden of this inborn inner tension, most pyrolurics display a high degree of creativity."

      Pyroluria is managed in part by restoring vitamin B6 and zinc and is highly treatable.

      I am almost sure that Owen is a nice guy….an probably the party animal that I would love to hang with…..I had a nose job back in 1985….he really needs the "job" on the "dick"

    63. WTF?!? says – reply to this


      63

      What's with that story by an "insider" (who suddenly decided to speak) that OW's attempt was ALL about Kate? Bullshit!! Either Kate's people are trying to keep her name in the headlines or Owen's people are trying to take the focus off of the drugs (probably the latter). Owen as a depressive who fell into hard drug use or as a 38-year old man who would try such a pussy move as slitting his wrist to get his ex-girlfriend's attention? Owen's depressed but he's not a pussy. That story is way misguided public-relations, "damage-control" bullshit!!

    64. Selena says – reply to this


      64

      Or maybe there was no insider and the press just made the story up themselves. It wouldn't be the first time and definitely not the last time that the media has done this to sell a story.

      Owen, go back to LA already. You're giving the East Coast a bad name. And cut the act, bicycling around NYC with supermodels looking all happy - now that everyone knows what a truly unhappy miserable dickhead you are, you can stop pretending. Why don't you kill yourself already, blondie and give us all a REAL story, instead of subjecting us working-stiffs to the endless articles about how "well" you're doing and how you're "on the road back." Jesus!!
