For the love of weed! Celebrities including Seth Rogen, Snoop Dog and Miley Cyrus have been vocal over the years about how marijuana has positively influenced their lives and careers and they aren’t alone.
Some of Hollywood’s biggest names have revealed that they have dabbled with the herb — and not just in celebrate of 4/20 (April 20th), which is National Marijuana Day.
Kirsten Dunst admitted in 2009 that she does “like” weed and although she doesn’t consider herself a “major stoner,” she thinks smoking pot in the right way and situation can be good for some people.
“I think America’s view on weed is ridiculous. I mean — are you kidding me? If everyone smoked weed, the world would be a better place,” the Spider-Man actress told Britain’s Live magazine at the time. “I’m not talking about being stoned all day, though. I think if it’s not used properly, it can hamper your creativity and close you up inside.”
The Hannah Montana alum has been open about her ups and downs with alcohol and drugs, telling Rolling Stone in 2013 that pot is usually her drug of choice.
“I think weed is the best drug on earth. One time I smoked a joint with peyote in it, and I saw a wolf howling at the moon,” Cyrus said. “And molly, too. Those are happy drugs – social drugs. They make you want to be with friends. You’re out in the open. You’re not in a bathroom.”
Rogen, for his part, took his love of the green herb to the next level by launching the cannabis company Houseplant with Evan Goldberg in March 2019.
“If you know anything about me at all, I am going to assume it’s that I really love weed,” the Pineapple Express actor said in a Twitter video in March 2021 ahead of his company’s U.S. launch. “Another thing we’re doing is making beautiful house goods for people who smoke weed. This is honestly my life’s work and I’ve never been more excited about anything.”
Two months later, Rogen opened up about his life as an avid pot smoker telling GQ UK that he smokes about eight or nine joints a day.
“He just wants to be on the couch, with his wife and his dog and his weed, watching reality television,” Goldberg told GQ UK in May 2021 about Rogen. “I guess it’s a weird thing for a famous person. But that’s his ultimate goal in life. It’s the boring answer. But it’s true.”
