Now that using Marijuana has been legalized in some states, we might get to see more and more stars being open to their smoking behavior. But before people start judging, let’s all know that celebrities are human too, and everyone has the right to do whatever they feel like doing. That doesn’t imply we won’t appreciate celebrities who are open about their intake of Marijuana. Whether it was at their young age or they enjoy it now and then, some celebrities out there don’t see any issue indulging in the act. However, below is a list of some celebrities that smoke Marijuana without shame.
Barack Obama
Typically, our minds don’t jump to politicians when we ponder on celebrities that smoke Marijuana. We all know him as the 44th President of the United States, but he is not a stranger to Marijuana. In a book written by Maraniss David, titled “Barack Obama – The Story”, he (Maraniss) narrates how Obama as a member of a basketball crew enjoyed smoking “J’s” (Joints) and always “Bogart that joint”, which is a slang used either when one refuses to share the joint, or when one takes in more than he’s meant to.
Megan Fox
The 32-year-old model, actress, and mother of three children under the age of five once said in an interview with British GQ, “I can’t tell you how much bullshit I’ve been through because I will openly say I smoke weed.” Although it has been a decade since she said that, surely, a lot of people would still love to have a joint with her. She also said as quoted, “I hope they legalize it, and when they do, I’ll be the first person in line to buy my pack of joints.”
Doug Benson
We can’t mention celebrities that smoke weed and forget to mention this man. Doug Benson is a TV actor, a comedian and also a marijuana activist. His popular podcast “Doug loves Movies” and “Getting Doug with high” video podcast tells you that this man is no stranger to Marijuana and doesn’t seem to hide it. He seems to take every little chance he gets to make people know that he’s a marijuana fan. He made a comedy show “Marijuana-Logues” with some of his colleagues in his early 20’s. He has used his career and comedy as an avenue to promote the world of ganja.
Khloe Kardashian
With one younger brother, Rob, and two elder sisters, Kim and Kourtney, well-known TV personality, mom, entrepreneur, and model Khloe Kardashian is the third out of the four Kardashian’s and seem to be living a golden life. The popular show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” has been broadcasted since 2007, but not until recently, she was strongly criticized for having a joint on-screen, which solidified her spot in the league of celebrities that take Marijuana. The series was shot in Costa Rica, where Marijuana is seen as a criminal offense for personal use.
Matthew McConaughey
The Oscar winner created his catchphrase, “Alright, alright,” while on the set of his first movie, “Dazed and Confused,” a movie about smoking marijuana, amongst many other things. Matthew is one of the many celebrities that take Marijuana off-screen. He once got arrested playing bongo naked at 2 o’clock in the morning, on suspected possession of Marijuana.
Jay Z
The mega-wealthy producer, entrepreneur, and rapper Jay Z was once quoted to say, “I smoked some weed, and that’s how I finished Izzo” about one of his hit singles. Weed can indeed be a resourceful balm for its capability to help him create a money-generating hit, he once said. In his verse of “Think It’s A Game” by Beanie Sigel, he said, “It’s seldom that I smoke, but it helps my thinker.” So if someone ever says smoking marijuana is for losers, pinpoint Jay Z.
