He WAS busted. He was going to a crack house in LA on a regular basis, buying crack and smoking it with homeless black dudes. Then he would perform oral favors on them. This is TRUE! It was reported in legitimate newspapers at the time. The house was under police surveillance, with hidden cameras inside that were placed to record drug transactions. He (Max Wright) only commented after being busted that it was his crack addiction that caused these activities (trying to claim that he was not really gay) and he was getting help. The worst part is, we all know how bad homeless people smell, not bathing for months (years?) at a time. And Max was willingly doing thist5b4otally gross!

I would like to point out that the Enquirer published this in 2001. The photos clearly look like Max Wright but are not identical to the way he looked at the time. Definitely grayer and more bald.
Also, he was nominated for a Tony a year before. It's not like he was completely desperate. -

Max Wright admitted to this whole incident and his crack addiction. You talk as though it's in question as to whether it was him or not. I never saw any Enquirer story, but this story was printed in legitimate newspapers as well as being covered on TV entertainment news shows. The incident occured, true story, end of discussion.
By the way, do you really think an actor can't be living in desperation just because he was nominated for a Tony award a year earlier? -

raybeckm: I'd love a link with the statements made by Max Wright. So far, no one has ever reported any responce from Max Wright following this incident, so I highly doubt you have anything to offer other than BS.
You could always prove me wrong though.

Would be intereb68sting to see these facts you mention, because a sleezy magazine article with doubtful pictures just doesn't cut it.

Ha, nothing doubtful about those pics. Sleazy Mag definitley!. But would have been sued if it were false as it had been sued in teh past for publishing inaccurate or false articles. Sorry Dude, but wake up and smell the coffee.

I knew Max for a few years in the 90's, he was a sweet, generous, hilarious friend. HE HAS ALWAYS STRUGGLED WITH ALCOHOL AND DRUGS.
The stigma of being gay is the root cause. For many gay men, especially of that generation, the only way they could deal with the guilt to have the sex they really wanted to have was to be high. Sex with male prostitutes is another way closeted married men deal with having sex while rationalizing they are not really "gay".
Hope he gets help, there was a lot more to him than Alf.

Yes, I remember when he fellated the homeless guys with the ALF puppet stunning!
AFAIK this story is still a rumor. People in the thread have been making claims but offering no support for them.
"It was on the news!"
"He admitted to it in an interview!"
Really? Where? (Chirp chirp)
Shorter version: Links or it didn't happen.
It is, after all, a man's reputation we're talking about here, even if it's a discussion thread on some dumb message board. -

Here is a blog with pictures from the Enquirer. Personally, I don't buy it. The guy in the pictures doesn't even look like him, and then there is the source itself. The Enquirer has about as much clout as The Sun, The New York Post, The Globe, or The Star. If it had actually happened, it would have been all over the news (and I mean credible news agencies that don't use checkbook journalism as their way to get a story), no one would be buying ALF in syndication, and his career would be over. However, he has been married for almost 50 years and is still a working actor.
