Drugs and Hollywood 

Drugs and Hollywood 

While in the field, Us reporters often run across celebrities doing everything from smoking pot to snorting lines of cocaine in private parties and clubs. Of course, drug and alcohol use among celebrities is nothing new, but in a frightening turn, it appears to have become more publicly accepted. 

One source recalls a recent star-studded New Year's Eve bash in Miami: "There were lines of coke on the table, weed everywhere. It was insane. It was a very free atmosphere." 

Notes the scenester, "Coke is so not a big deal for young stars in Hollywood. It's like having a drink." 

Indeed, a stay in rehab once killed a person's career, but now celebrities openly disclose their drug use in interviews: Lohan admitted to drug use in Vanity Fair; singer Fergie has been candid about her former crystal meth addiction; Justin Timberlake has admitted he was stoned when he recorded his multiplatinum CD Justified; and John Mayer - currently dating Jessica Simpson, daughter of a former Baptist minister -- gave Rolling Stone an interview while puffing on a marijuana vaporizer.
