It's Official!

Filed under: Owen Wilson

mx0017186.jpg

The National Enquirer and Star magazines jointly broke the news of Owen Wilson's alleged suicide.

Well, it's no longer alleged.

TV's Extra has confirmed that Wilson did try and take his own life, and they have official documentation to prove it.

Extra has obtained the Calls for Service report from the Santa Monica Police Department, which lists the reason for the 911 call from Owen Wilson’s house as an “attempted suicide.”

The call was received on Sunday, August 26 at 12:08:16 p.m. The incident was “cleared” almost five hours later at 5:07:16pm.

There is still no clear motive for the attempted suicide, though numerous theories run rampant.

Thankfully Owen is in good condition now and hopefully he will get the mental health help that he needs going forward.

    Yawn…..for crying out loud! I love Owen but comon, you are 38 years old, not working, scateboarding during the days….who would not get anxiety, depression and drug problems????? Pull yourself together…you are 38! Your problems indicate too much time on your hand…not meaning in life…even though the money you have would help you alot to start many meaningful projects beside acting. Why not withdraw to Texas with your family, seek guidance outside the Tinseltown circle and settle down. You are not 22 anymore and better realize it. This is the life circle…take freaking charge of your life, give it meaning, get a family and you will gain much more than the emptyness of Hollywood. Owen, you are georgeous…but behave like a kid. Start being a man! STart a business, get married and have some kids. This will refocus and your life will fall into place. Your parents made it…..ask them for guidance..life is not easy…but so much easier with a meaning.

    Thank goodness he wasn't successful with the attempt, suicide is never the answer. My cousin hung himself just because his girlfriend dumped him. There's always more fish in the sea folks! And better deserving too.

    This is really awful. I love Owen! If it is trouble in the lady department myself and I'm sure many women are availble for him! I just hope he gets better and recovers. He's one of my favorite comedic actors. I also hope the media stays out of it. He's never had any bad publicity before and always remained low key. I just hope this doesn't hurt his career. I'm just shocked and sad:(

    We need to pray for him. Everyone has had low points in their life where they feel they cannot go on and sometimes they make bad choices in those moments. Im sure he will be fine if he seeks the help he needs. hes not crazy, just human life the rest of us.

    Owen is supposed to do interviews for a press junket in 2 weeks for his new movie…This is what happens when you get really good heroin. Tried to kill himself with all his money and fame? He must be hiding something and got called on it. It can not be drugs. Someone knows. Lets hear about it.

    121

    I'm sure Owen has had a drug/alcohol/etc. problem for quite a while and I'M SURE kate caught onto that an dumped him. SO how could his choice to slice himself be her fault? I hope he can figure out what that big empty space is in his heart because filling it with chemicals obviously doesn't work. :( Good luck Owen and don't act as though it was just one moment in time. It can happen and again and maybe you'll succeed! Think about others and how you could change their lives forever with a most selfish solution to workable problems.

  22. holden says – reply to this


    122

    Thank God he is getting treatment for his illness. Suicide is not rational. The entire Wilson family is in my prayers. Owen cannot deny or cover this up. Maybe he will really get the professional assistance he needs. God bless.

    perez you're a tricky bastard

    "he did it it"

    I thought he attempted again, and ACTUALLY killed himself

    jeeezus! way to trick people into reading your shit

    125

    I hope he gets all the help he needs. I always thought him to be funny, good-looking and having a brain, too. Too sad he is in such a crisis. No ex-love is worth trying to take your own life- there must have been more reasons, more things building up.
    Get well soon, Owen.

  26. JN says – reply to this

    THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF HOW PEREZ IS ILLITERATE. If Wilson had committed suicide, he would be DEAD. HE ATTEMPTED SUICIDE, YOU FUCKING ILLITERATE MORON.

    131

    I think there is so much more to this. I love Owen and hope he gets well. I truely think he is gay and this has something to with it and his drug problem. I worked in the industry for years and I have to tell you, its another world. These stars need to pack up and get the hell out of Hollyweird and live in the real world with the rest of us. They may find a normal life and still able to work in the industry. Most that are sane, dont live in LALA LAND!

    Umm I would kill myself too if Kate Hudson left me for Dax…..

    In all seriousness though, love Owen, and I hope he gets better soon

    133

    I think Owen Wilson is adorable. I am sending him my positive thoughts and really hope he can get through this bad patch right now and be happy again . Hollywood, money or famous dates have nothing to do with depression. Anyone who has been close to someone with depression knows it is chemical, treatable and scary.

    He seems to have a lot of support from a loving family and everyone should just back off and let him get it together! He gives a lot of people something to laught at on the screen
    ( MANDY!!!!) Lets all hope he can get better soon.

    GET WELL OWEN!

  34. clay is gay says – reply to this


    134

    More than likely Kate with a new man probably made him despondent. Anybody can feel really bad at any time. So glad he made it, that someone found him in time, and that he'll be back. He has a new movie he's going to begin working on soon. Owen Wilson shows that anybody, no matter how charmed a life you think they have, can be feeling a lot of pain. Always reach out to people, even if you don't know them that well.

    Some of you people are fucking illiterate. Making jokes about him "offing himself" is not finny. Depression is an illness. Money, fame nor anything else is going to fix it. He needs help and now he is getting it. Lets just wish the guy well

    139

    people are seriously such assholes. magazines and shit going to all this trouble to get documentation that he tried to kill himself. leave the guy alone. he tried to KILL HIMSELF, maybe you shouldnt be publisizing that all around the world, thats something seriously fucked up and he should be allowed to deal with it privately.

  40. oh my god says – reply to this


    140

    i cannot believe he would try to commit suicide! lets hope its not because of a broken heart and he gets the help he needs.

    I'm so sick of these fuck ups who have fame, fortune, and opportunities that the majority of us will never get, making a total mess of their lives. He was probably doped up and decided that he was now depressed.
    Hey Owen, donate all your money to charity, give up your fame and go to work long hours in a dead end job for low pay and shitty health care. THEN you'll see what depressed is. I have NO sympathy for him.

  47. SOS says – reply to this


    147

    Owen Wilson had an argument with someone prior to his suicide attempt. Perhaps this was one of the precipitating events that spurred an already depressed man to complete a plan for suicide. Did he argue with Wes Anderson, maybe? If so, I hope that Anderson understands that this is not his "fault". In any event, Owen's in my prayers, as are his family members and friends. I'm glad he's alive and I wish him complete recovery.

    I have absolutely no idea what prompted me to tap Perez Hilton's site.

    To those people who have said get over it….shameful really! It wasn't over a girl, was a bust up with a close friend….
    Depression is a hidden illness and I have friends that struggle all the time, we should respect his wishes and let him recover back to 110%
    Owen…not that you would read this, take your time, its your life, we cannot ever imagine having the press outside our doors! Everyone deals with it differently, yours your way…the only people that have the problems are the jealous people! Enjoy Life x

    Wow. I hope that he gets better soon. That is soo sad. Its juts like a few ppl said on here, its hard to be the funny man all the time. Keep this in mind: Suicide is nothing to rip on someone about, its not something that is funny… you never know what goes on behind closed doors. My heart breaks for him.. And his family for that matter. SOmething like this does not only affect the person involved… I hope the media (PEREZ!!) gives him his respect and leave him the hell alone while he gets help…He does not need a bunch of attention focused on this.
    Get well Soon, Owen!!

    Depression hits people from every walk of life. My husband attempted suicide earlier this year (Thank God he didn't succeed)…people ask..why would he do that? He has everything. It doesn't matter who you are or where you are from, depression can kill and some people can't find a way out. Very sad. I feel sad for Owen and his loved ones and I hope that he gets the help he needs.

    Great, I'm so glad that they took to heart his plea to have his privacy repected . Seriosuly.obtaining the 911 record, this is beyond a personal issue, story or not, leave him the fuck alone! S o glad that the media shows concern for his family asking how they r n how he is as they go to see him in the hospital..have some tact douchebags! I am so disgusted

  70. Graciella says – reply to this


    170

    If you were in his condition would you really want the media covering it? This is really not some salacious gossip story to get worked up over - it's someone's life. All of this coverage is really (albeit characteristically) unconscionable. Let the man heal. No one really needs to know the details, and it should seem obvious by now that he doesn't want anyone to know them.

    ALL: Don't be so SURE that one day you won't fall into a suicidal depression.
    Genes, bad diet, drug/alcohol use, stress, some medicines…all components or triggers of this DISEASE. If someone had cancer you wouldn't say "snap out of it"..cancer is caused by an imbalance in the body as is depression. And also think that this poor man is going to be in bad shape mentally for at least 8 weeks so it won't help him to be exposed to all of the hideous headlines and nasty comments. Have some compassion, please!

  92. finnybear says – reply to this


    192

    I feel bad for the guy, but all of you that are going on and on about his privacy should consider the fact that keeping his problems private until now didn't stop him from almost killing himself. If he's so depressed that he did try to die, I'm guessing he was at rock bottom and this isn't going to make him feel any worse. At least now he can get some help and instead of feeling shame, he can get attention from his fans which, I'm sure will be wishing him well.

    Me and my husbands good friend and temporary housemate just shot himself in our kitchen 2 Thursdays ago. Amazingly he is still alive. SUICIDE IS A SELFISH THING TO DO. Now that he is going to live through it he will see how many people he has hurt and affected by doing something so stupid. Life is never that bad… YOU CAN ALWAYS BOUNCE BACK.
    I am sure tons of homeless, hungry broken people would'vr traded their lives for Owens which shows how ungrateful he is for his life.

    My heart aches for him, he's such a good looking, talented, funny guy. Depression is a very overwhelming illness, won't let you think straight even if you're on top of the world. Let's hope he gets the help he needs. Also wondering how his bro is feeling bout this. They seem like such cool regular guys.

    He needs a good stylist who will direct him to a proper haircut, sport shirt and nose job. Within moments after that, he'll be hot again in Hollywood. Love you dude. Ask Vince about the rhinoplasty, the big man w/ the little schnauze! PS when's Wedding Crashers: Gates No Obstacle ??
