Buddy Lembeck is broke
Things have gone from bad to worse for “Teen Hunk” Willie Aames — also known as Buddy Lembeck from his stint on “Charles in Charge” back in the 80s — who was recently filmed selling what is left of his soul at a local garage sale in Kansas City. Mo., for the world to witness.
Associated Press has the latest chapter in his depressing life story:
” … Willie Aames is selling off his belongings in suburban Kansas City. Dozens showed up Thursday at a garage sale at his Olathe home, where Aames made deals with bargain-hunters and signed autographs. A production crew filmed the sale for a TV show. Aames has fallen upon hard times. He filed for bankruptcy last year and his home is in foreclosure. Items on sale included antiques, artwork, a piano, deer head mounts and TV and movie memorabilia.”
Aames was also reportedly interested in hocking whatever dignity he had left; however, it seems as if that was bartered to score a fix on VH1’s “Celebrity Fit Club 2.” He actually won an individual prize on the show for shedding 26 pounds, which he later ate for supper and washed down with Diet Coke. No ice.
