He took a string of small parts in B-movies and television shows, and explored his love of music. A self-taught musician, Feldman released his first solo album in 1994. He followed that up in 1999 with Still Searching for Soul, the first album from his band Truth Movement.

In 2002, Feldman met Susie Sprague at a nightclub. The couple married nine months later on the set of The Surreal Life,

a reality television show that placed an assortment of past-their-prime celebrities in a house together. The wedding ceremony was officiated by both a rabbi (Feldman is Jewish) and fellow Surreal Life star M.C. Hammer. The couple had their first child, son Zen Scott Feldman, in August 2004.

The Two Coreys

In 2007, Corey Feldman and Corey Haim reunited for the A&E reality television show called The Two Coreys. During the show, both men confessed that they had been sexually abused as boys. Haim relapsed into drug addiction shortly after that revelation, leading to a bitter on- and off-camera falling-out between the former friends. Feldman refused to continue filming until Haim sought treatment, and their friendship disintegrated. Corey Haim died of a drug overdose in March 2010. "This is a tragic loss of a wonderful, beautiful, tormented soul, who will always be my brother, family, and best friend," Feldman said in a statement after Haim's death.

Feldman's wife, Susie, filed for divorce in October 2009, citing irreconcilable differences. Despite the setbacks in his personal life, Feldman continues to act, release albums and tour with his band, Truth Movement. "I've had probably some of the darkest, most depressing times anybody could imagine," Feldman said in a 2000 interview, "but in the end I'm a positive guy."
