Scott Baio's Feud Over Costar's Death Has Morphed Into an Argument About His Penis Size
PoliticsLike a very large succulent plant, Scott Baio requires attention every once in a while—whether he’s telling liberal snowflakes to “grow the blank up” and quit with “all of your antics of Russia,” or coldly speculating that his former Happy Days costar Erin Moran died of a drug addiction and remembering her as an “insecure human being,” he is just always sort of around, ready to say dumb stuff.
Before it was announced this week that Moran died from complications stemming from stage 4 cancer, Baio said in an interview about his former costar (who reportedly had previously struggled with addiction): “For me, you do drugs or drink, you’re gonna die. I’m sorry if that’s cold, but God gave you a brain, gave you the will to live and thrive and you gotta take care of yourself.” (The Daily Mail initially reported that she was believed to have died from a heroin overdose.)
In the interview, Baio remarked: “I knew Erin well, over the last many years I have not spoken with her. She was just an insecure human being and fell into this world of drugs and alcohol. Again, I don’t know if that’s what killed her, I’m sure it was a culmination of years and years of doing it that might have had something to do with it. She just never found her way.”
“How do you help somebody that doesn’t want to help themselves? You try a couple of times and if they don’t want the help, I gotta go, sorry.”
