Macaulay Culkin just wanted to stay home alone.
The actor, 45, revealed why he decided to step away from acting in 1994 after starring in the holiday classic “Home Alone” in 1990 and its 1992 sequel, “Home Alone 2: Lost in New York.”
“What I wanted is to be with people my own age. You have to remember: a lot of the stuff I did when I was a kid … I’m not doing ensembles. It’s me,” Culkin shared while appearing on Mythical Kitchen. //
In 1994, the child star led the family comedy “Richie Rich,” about a boy who has everything in the world except friends.
Afterwards, Culkin had the urge for a more normal lifestyle.
“I wanted to go out and I wanted to date girls, and I wanted to hang out with people my own age. I wanted to, you know, go to a party,” he detailed. “I wanted to do those kind of things. I can’t tell you how many bar mitzvahs I missed.”
