Wow. Whatever happened to him?

He had cancer then Drew Barrymore dumped him immediately after they got married. While recovering from the cancer Jackass copied his style and took over. Plus his Freddy got Fingered movie was a huge flop. Add on to all that he had burned some bridges with his prank marriage to Drew on SNL.

Later on he wrote a book and said Drew's best friend was Courtney Love and she was a real nasty beeach at their wedding. A few months after their wedding, around Christmas break Drew came back from a movie shoot and told Tom she wanted to take her vacation in Hawaii..WITHOUT HIM!

Dude came to the U.S. and was a huge hit for awhile but he got burned pretty bad. Oh yeah even his house burned down hez cursed.

he is traveling in a van with his doggy charlie and posting it on youtube for the pandemic.

I always wanted to ride around in the desert like that. I haven't had an opportunity to do that.

I didn't know courtney love was at the wedding, lol.

R32, bad lack, bad timing, and bad lifestyle.

He was huge at the time he got cancer, but when he wasn't committing to a return date, MTV brought in Jackass to fill the vacuum. They had been doing a much more edgy version of what Tom was doing all along—only confined to Big Brother magazine and self-produced videos that only sold at skate shops—so it wasn't actually the direct ripoff people make it out to be. Still, you can kind of understand why he'd by bitter.

Marriage; shitty movies; house burns down; divorce. Then he went back to MTV and did a special which was supposed to restore him to his former glory, but it was just cringeworthy. MTV followed up with a talk show that was canceled after a few weeks.

He went on to do a streaming talk show from his house and lost a ton of money paying for bandwidth, so that never really took off. While he was doing it, though, he had Joe Rogan on as a guest and told him, "This is the future! You should be doing this!" We all know where that went....for Joe Rogan.

After that it was just series of bad TV appearances — Celebrity Ghost Stories, Celebrity Apprentice, Celebrity Big Brother, etc. He started dating a Vegas realtor (a [italic]very[/italic] Vegas realtor) and had a short-lived casino stand-up show and became joined at the hip with Andrew Dice Clay.

When the Vegas show was canceled, he started traveling and did okay with stand-up for a while. The pandemic put an end to that which led to driving around in a van and uploading depressing videos from the desert and now even more depressing videos from his log cabin. Sadder still are the videos trying to recreate what he did 20+ years ago as people avert their eyes and rush past him.
