Cover Story: "Desperate" Demi Moore "Tracked Down" Zac Efron
The night of Demi Moore's Jan. 16 911 call was even scarier than it sounded.
"Everyone thought she was going to die," a source tells the new Us Weekly of the emergency, in which Moore, 49, collapsed, and was "convulsing" after smoking an unknown substance.

It was the culmination of months of self-destructive partying (and drug use) for the newly single star, struggling to make sense of things as she nears 50 without husband Ashton Kutcher, from whom she split late last year.
"She's been really down, and she's surrounding herself with young people to make her feel better," an insider tells Us of Moore, who's been obsessed for years with staying young and thin.

"She's been mixing pills and Red Bulls, among other things," another source says.
One of Moore's favorite young stars to party with -- and flirt with -- is daughter Rumer Willis's longtime friend Zac Efron, 24, a hunk nine years younger than Kutcher, 33.

A wired, gaunt Moore "tracked down" the High School Musical star at a party in L.A.'s Venice neighborhood, an insider tells Us. "She seemed out of her mind at this party."
For additional details on Moore's spiral -- her calls and texts with Efron, how her three daughters are coping, her ongoing obsession with staying young, and what's next -- pick up the new Us Weekly, on stands Friday.

48she's ove rthe hill. She had a midlife crisis and Everybody htinks it's somehting else? For Shame!
Hoo hum who cares. If I had a grocery chain this kind of crap wouldn't be on my stands. MGP.
No one reading this article knows what is actually going on. Everything in this article is quotes by anonymous "sources" or supposed "friends". I really doubt that any of her real friends are selling information to tabloids, so this information likely came from sketchy sources (the tabloid has to have sources to avoid defamation suits, but the sources aren't necessarily accurate). I find it amazing that people are so guillable as to act like this "article" is true.
there must be something wrong going on in her mind....Why would she be scared of getting old? everybody gets old not only her...and why would she keep chasing young guys? she needs to seek a professional help.
It's hard to believe the age difference didn't count for a hell of a lot. To marry a man who is so much younger AND to live in Hollywood is a sure-fire receipe for disaster. Poor lady.
no danra i am not good at it .
We all know that you are hurting, but you are making a fool of yourself. Stop this now, before you lose your daughter's respect. Men come and go, but your daughters will always love you!
someone needs to tell her that if shes obsessed with staying young and thin, drugs will ruin that for her faster than anything.... most druggies look much older than they are.
Demi, Wake up and smell the coffee. Time waits for no one. You are a better person than that to be doing drugs at your age. All the drugs are going to do is make you look older. I know people my age or younger that have or still do drugs and they look so much older than I do. I'm 52 and accepting as you should.
Poor Demi.. i hope she can get the help she needs & move on! she is such a great actress & beautiful woman! She needs to pick herself up & move on. This behavior will get her no where.
@Lori Cloutier Niscoromni.....I totally agree with You !!
Kim only colored her hair to look like khloe so that way people won't say that she is not a Kardasshhhh cause mommy is a hohohoho
She's so concerned with lost youth, so she's loosing any chance to get the most out of what still left. stupid hoe.
The media should be ashamed to kick people when they are down. Do you think this pathetic story is helping this women in anyway? I will never buy this magazine again. Oh and it is fine for a man to marry a womann 25 years younger w/ no critics, but if a woman does it, it is a toy boy. A stupid double standard. Us mag and People should hope karma does not strike for publishing such a horrible mean article.
Taylor Swift is a Barbie doll. Let her find Ken.
She is so stupid. Demi. get real. You are approaching 50. Get used to it. Let your daughters have their boyfriends. Your young days are over.

i feel bad that is so embarrassing
ok since none of us knows what actually happened here i tend to not have to much of an opinion on the break up of the marriage. but the thing that gets to me is she is as a mother. she is almost fifty with three girls who are or are close to being adults they are looking to her since they are just now starting to realize she's probably right about alot of things until now. since she is a mom and i dont care what ages her girls are she should take care of herself. its not like the early eighties when it was just her so if she had a drinking/drug problem it was just her that it affected now she has three girls who still need her
Wow...the media is havin a field day with this. The world can go to hell in a handbasket and we will continue to go on and on ad nauseam about Demi. Donnez moi une break!
