R10, Madonna is a strange one. The prevailing gossip about her for decades was that she didn’t drink or do drugs. She picked up a Lemon Drop habit during the Guy Ritchie years and took the occasional hit of weed, but was always considered too controlling to get properly ripped.

She seems like a full addict these days though.

She was caught in a shady neighborhood with Justin Bieber buying drugs, she was not allowed onto a kidney transplant list due to her drug and alcohol use, and she and her friend who gave Selena her kidney had a falling out because Selena continued to use drugs and alcohol, essentially wasting the precious gift she was given.

r56 widely depends on age, social clique, location at the time, what scene they spend the most time in, and part of the industy or really more workload, responsibilities, etc. Individuals can have individual results but most usage starts socially or by necessity - high workloads, tight schedules often leads to relying on both uppers and downers... but the types of drug cliques and their scenes haven't changed much. It's all predictable and most people use. If not illicit substances, they o.d. on the 'legal' (or legal'ish nooptropics, raw chems, roids) variety and more exotic alternative treatments.

r66 It's possible to be a casual user without becoming dependent. But that's different for everyone for a variety of factors. You really only hear about celebrity drug use when they've become addicts or they're trying to get out of something worse and using it as an excuse. Or yes, the occasional p.r. story. As to mental health, if they're not overdoing it and taking breaks, then the affects on mental health can be as mild or milder than caffiene, alcohol, nicotine. As to looks, that's variable to person, health and other factors. Most people spread out usage with age... like drinking, you might be able to get drunk every weekend in your twenties but most people tend to avoid getting wasted as they age.

by Anonymousreply 72November 12, 2022 5:32 PM

r71 Everyone knows someone and if they don't, it's not that difficult to find a dealer anywhere. . .

some will go through third parties, someone close enough to trust but expendable enough to burn and let them figure it out.

Others will just hit up the party scene, clubs, festivals, college campuses,

heck, a fraction of hookups advertise it.

Some dealers haver day jobs, some work in the industry or around it.

Some are confident to do runs themselves or just visit legal'ish destinations, whatever.

or just give a dollar to the obvious junkies, homeless hanging on the streets.

It's the same if you wanted to find one. There's no real difference. You make contacts and you become in the know, if you want to know.

Though, yes, these days you should look into the appropriate lab service or test kits. . . figuring out logistics is on your end. As are all other risks from health to legal.

r72 everyone assumes everyone lies to some extent. . .

r71 oh, and yes, they could have it in their handbag... there's a variety of concealment objects, jewelry, interns. It's better to avoid for big events, names not as likely to receive trouble but it's still gauche, you can argue away pills more than the other substances, so that has an easier pass... better to have a prescription and it's still it's frowned upon, too many people, too much social blowback, media and all that. So, better to dose before events. No one wants to be caught in the bathroom if their name is called.

Just look at red carpet interviews. Most won't be Courtney Love levels to fucked, but you'll catch on to who might be under the influence, or might just be a mental case, or suffering a physical ailment.

music, standup and theatre don't give as much of a fuck because far more people are but again, keep it out of shows and award shows.

r77 depends on the person. . . but light use, yeah, it's mostly the eyes. Moderate to heavy, some are like a wind-up bobble-head, you get teeth chattering, jerky movements. Some have a little stutter that might sound like katharine hepburn having an orgasm. Some are perpetually hard (cocks/nipples). Some over numb areas, so the frequent nosing wiping is often more when they can't feel it. You get lip biters or those that burn their lips because they can't feel it. But the effect is usually temporary. so, you probably would have seen them use it. Shirt term memory can be toast but like usage, really, just the eyes unless they're particularly more sensitive to it or combining.

I read Elizabeth Wurtzel's (Prozac Nation) memoir More, Now, Again about her time snorting crushed Ritalin pills, similar to Adderall. Donald Trump is not the only one snorting Adderall.

Kirsten Dunst went to rehab. She says the reason was for depression and for "addiction to antidepresents." Sure, Jan.

She became extremely famous at a very young age with her role in "Interview with the Vampire." It's well known to all that most Hollywood stars experience a lot of issues when they become famous at a young age. She was creepy and good in Interview. Loved her in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and other things as well.

That said, I'm glad she got treatment and dealt with her issues. I've always thought she was a terrific actress and I'm glad she's happy and seems to be doing well (husband is Meth Damon and they have at least one kid that I know of).

r121 r122 It's written into rating systems for one. This is how fucked up and how much parent groups and other censors have control over. It's not just about lyrics, dialogue or performance in general but extends to personal lives too. It's a charade the rest of the world never fully believes and also, what leads so many childrens/family entertainment to be fucked up sets because it's simply unnatural... at least to be 24/7. Inevitably everyone breaks. heart throbs and starlets, especially. Shit gets weird in censorshipville. . . .of dictates a shift in ratings.

then you have the federal initiatives... like the 90s, they made the switch for childrens educational programs being about basic skills to empathy instead (that one backfired, didn't it).

Or you go back to the early 80s with the just say no rhetoric being interjected into everything. It was more in your face back in the day but it hasn't gone away. Same with abstinence only. anti-bullying. anti, anti, anti, anti to now where most shows has to include a tranny, and not just a truscum tranny but a supercalifragilisticexpialidocious tranny that loves muhammad, the environment and the republican party. People want to imgaine television has advanced in topics and morality but it hasn't really, the sets and casts are divese but the topics are the same cornball shit with a heavy handed moral tone that skews heavily in one direction or attempts to avoid the topic at all costs.

hollywood p.r. (heck, political p.r.) is still stuck in the same place. . . morality clauses, bitches, they're written into everything and the whores that have one always feel like they're standing at the edge of stepford.

r131 I didn't say that JHo was a drug addict or had a habit, just that she does do coke on occasion. Also, I really don't know what the implications of doing occasional coke have on the skin (or even being a habitual user for that matter). I know meth can fuck your skin up, and even heavy, long term drinking can as well (since the body is usually in a state of constant dehydration).

"Why is it so common for people in the industry to take drugs?"

Combination of factors. They can afford it, they get offered freebies, they need to keep their weight down, they feel exempted from the rules ordinary people follow, need to deal with stress and pressure, etc.

I imagine recreational use is the norm for these people, that both addiction and abstinence are the exceptions.

R138 Ah OK, makes sense. For some reason I assumed she was a cokehead - might have read that somewhere ages ago (and of course her ex-husband is rumored to be one of the biggest cokeheads around). I guess doing it at the odd party or event wouldn't really do anything to your looks or skin.

She's a complete mess. Anyways. It's basically like taking a upper with a opiate. There's a pain relieving like analgesic effect, but you're totally lucid. People apparently use it as a opioid alternative for pain and to get off of opiates. Not sure if it's recreational but probably since there's not really a lot of places that would drug test for it. It's been around for thousands of years. It KILLS the appetite and provides a get things done,/confident/capable feel, similar to line of coke. The capsules are better, the powder itself is horrible tasting. There's people that drink it as a tea too. I dropped 70lbs on it over 6 months. You also can't OD on it- you'll vomit waaaaay before that could happen. 0 deaths thus far.

most fascinating thing about the Donald Trump jr AND sr coke allegations is that there has never been a reputable journalist who hinted that it was definitively known they were coke users. Even the girl Junior was cheating with (the affair that broke up his marriage) claims they did use drugs but not cocaine--and thats when she was purposely shitting on him in the media to embarrass him. And all three kids had long established friendships and relationships in NYC society that have broken down, with old friends willing to talk shit about them to press both on and off the record because of their involvement in Trump's presidency and backing his politics.

There are all sorts of ways that journalists hint at things they dont want to or can't say out loud. They find ways to let you know what the person is really like. Especially political journalists. You look at Junior's videos and say, this guy is on coke. But no journalist has ever been able to even suggest that's true, how he gets it, how much he uses, who he uses with, etc.

More controversially: Emilia Clarke's account of her two aneurysms (plus recovery) never really squared with her active work history during that time to me. It makes more sense if the first one really was a hushed up overdose she bounced back from and the second was truly an unruptured aneurysm caught in time for preventitive surgery (that she scheduled after her Broadway debut ended prematurely because she said it happened in NY). It doesn't help that she currently looks like a 45 year old bobble head at 36. If not coke then, maybe coke (or Adderall) now.
