Justin Bieber
| Saturday, 05 January 2013 22:14 |
 The 18-year old Canadian singer was partying with friends on Jan. 2 at a hotel room in Newport Beach, California when the pics, acquired by TMZ, were snapped. He's seen with a lit blunt roach in his left hand. On Dec. 23, the Daily News quoted a source who said about Bieber, "He smokes weed all day, from the time he gets up, and orders everybody around. He’s surrounded by hangers-on who say yes to anything he wants. There’s no supervision." A second source added, “Justin doesn’t seem to care and does whatever he wants. This could really damage his reputation if they don’t get it under control." Just this week a paparazzi in Los Angeles was killed while chasing a Ferrari which he believed Bieber was driving. Photographer Chris Guerra contended that earlier in the day he saw Bieber smoking a pipe in the car. Guerra was struck by another vehicle as he pursued the Ferarri on foot. |

Bill Murray
As the story goes, Murray was at Chicago's O'Hare International Airport waiting to board a plane to Denver, where he was a pre-med student at Regis University. In a moment of sheer stupidity, he told a fellow passenger that he was carrying two bombs in his luggage as a joke. A ticket agent overheard him, and called over federal agents. This is where the sheer stupidity -- or being totally baked -- comes into play. He didn't have bombs, but he was carrying five bricks of marijuana -- 10 pounds, valued at $20,000.
You might wonder why he'd light up that "I have tons of pot" neon over his head, but his poor comedic timing might not have mattered. Chicago detectives had already received a tip about Murray, and were waiting to arrest him. The future actor got really lucky and was charged with possession of cannabis; he plead guilty, and received five years probation. You can see a copy of the news release over at The Smoking Gun.
Obviously, Bill didn't stick to medicine. Five years after Murray's arrest, he earned his first credit as the voice of a reporter on 'Shame of the Jungle.' Another four years later, he earned his starring, breakout role as Tripper in 'Meatballs.' It wasn't until 1980, however, that he made his reefer ways really work for his career, playing Hunter S. Thompson in 1980's 'Where the Buffalo Roam.'

Brooke Shields
UPDATE: Friday, Sept. 28 1:20 p.m. EST -- A rep for Bad Brains' management has issued a statement to Gawker claiming that the photo does indeed show H.R. and Shields smoking weed together in 1983.
"It's her," the band's manager told the website through a publicist. "This would be from 1983. Hair length, and H.R. missing that tooth he knocked out hitting a huge stage divider pole at the Reggae Lounge. Brooke would have been around 18, maybe still a Ford model."
UPDATE: A rep for Shields tells The Huffington Post "It isn't her."
PREVIOUSLY: For no reason whatsoever, a Twitter user named Dave Hill has tweeted a photo that he alleges is a young Brooke Shields smoking out of a pipe.
Sitting next to the woman, as she lights up is none other than H.R., lead singer of the pioneering D.C. hardcore band Bad Brains.
Everything has been up in smoke lately for some of Hollywood's most outspoken celebrities. Earlier this week, Lady Gaga was called a "slut" by Staten Island Borough President James Molinaro, after the pop star smoked weed while onstage in Amsterdam, and singer Fiona Apple was arrested on drug possession charges in Texas.
Federal legalization of marijuana is an increasingly hot issue in American politics, although the two major presidential candidates have mostly dodged the issue. When President Barack Obama participated in an "Ask Me Anything" Q&A on Reddit last month, several of the most popular questions concerned America's drug war. The president declined to respond to any of them.
Alanis Morissette
Alanis came out of her 'grow-room,' as it were, about her love of cannabis and the necessity she has for our Worlds most popular plant.
Not that it surprised anybody to the extent of spilling bong water on themselves, she did have a song titled 'Mary Jane,' and has a boyfriend, Tom Ballanco who is a front line medical marijuana advocate and hangs with~ Woody Harrelson, ~but now she 'went Google' and whispered in everybody's ear. (where this picture was taken)
Quotes from:
"As
an artist, there's a sweet jump-starting quality to [marijuana] for me,"
Morissette says. "I've often felt telepathic and receptive to inexplicable
messages my whole life. I can stave those off when I'm not high. When I'm high -
well, they come in and there's less of a veil, so to speak. So if ever I need
some clarity... or a quantum leap in terms of writing something, it's a quick
way for me to get to it."
"I have a lot of friends around me who are very courageous and willing to 'come out' - and Tom is definitely beyond the front lines. Any fears that I had about cannabis were quickly assuaged.
Now I feel like a professional!"
Lady Gaga
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta is the most honest CelebToker out there. She had said that her honesty is for her fans. And that's rare in a town built on bullshit. Watch~out girl, you committed treason.
You're a 'bud' bloomin in the stink! Before Lady Gaga received her Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Album for 'The Fame Monster' she told '60 Minutes' "I still smoke allot of pot when I write music."
"So I'm not goin to like sugar coat it that I'm some like sober human being, cause I'm not. When you asked me about the sociology of fame and what artists do wrong -- what artists do wrong is they lie. And I don't lie. I'm not a liar," she said. "I built good will with my fans. They know who I am. And I'm just like them in so many ways."
