NY Daily News Blind Item

Which pothead actor is seeking refuge for harder drugs in a NYC rehab center? The toker couldn’t quite kick the nose-candy habit.

  1. The link leads to an article about Josh Brolin and Sean Penn. Basing my guess on that I say Josh Brolin!!!

  2. Ed the blind is at the bottom of that article so I don't think it's related...

  4. I'm thinking James Franco, just because of his recent turn as a pothead in Pineapple Express.

  10. linnea, I think Seth is a great guess. He had to lose weight for the role, and we all know what a help a little nose candy can be... maybe he just didn't expect for it to be hard to stop.

    Jumping on the James Franco train here.

    Though admittedly I would not mind jumping on James himself. Heh.

  13. Owen comes to Minnesota for rehab. Oh, and that's just one more reason I love him - Hazelden is for people who really want to get clean, not a vacation spa like Promises.

  14. Do you really think so, jax? I have never seen anyone who personifies pothead like seth rogen... I highly doubt that it is just an act for him. I have never seen him get through an interview where he doesnt talk about how smoking pot is his biggest hobby.

  15. I've seen tons of interviews where Seth talks about smoking... whether or not he still does is kinda questionable. I think he seems like he's got his act together. Therefore, I don't think it is Seth... James Franco? I imagine this was timed with the release of Pinapple Express (I think today?). Anyways... just rambling my thoughts!

  16. I am going with Seth. Wasn't there a previous blind related to Jonah Hill and coke use? Aren't they BFF?

  17. oh i know he smokes, but he's not the character he plays, dude is writing,acting and producing. he's got it together as others said.

    Franco can barely stay awake to pass the blunt lately. that is classic stoner pothead eyes.

    there is a big diff between a 'smoker' and a pothead.
    one makes it to work and the other makes it to 7/11.

  18. Franco is in Milk so eh.. this seems like a slam dunk to me, no?

  19. Just throwing these out there, because they are way outside of the box:
    Jennifer Aniston (many actresses call themselves actors)
    Keanu Reeves

  20. Mooshki, how many times has Owen been there?

    ReplyDelete
  21. jen just got back from Cabo and Keanu's poison is booze.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Grace, actually I only know of one time for sure, and that was many years ago.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Isn't James Franco working on three degrees simultaneously? In addition to acting? He might like his weed, but I'm not buying he's the answer to this blind.

    ReplyDelete
  24. What about known smokers, owen wilson, luke wilson, and woody harrelson?

    ReplyDelete
  25. i don't know... seth rogen did drop a lot of weight recently... could be coke

    ReplyDelete
  26. I immediately thought of Seth Rogen. It pains me because I looooove him, but he's a self proclaimed pothead and his weight loss for the role of green hornet is what got me for this BI. If it isn't him (and I hope to God it's not) I would say it could be Harrison F, Mathew McConeheigh or Keanu.

  27. Jax, I had a girlfriend who ran in the crew - admittedly, years ago - but Seth was a full on pothead. I just wouldn't dismiss it so quickly as being "acting".

    ReplyDelete
  28. I'm going with Seth. Saw him in a magazine the other day and barely recognized him and I don't think his drastic weight loss is attributable to healthy eating and working out! Sad if true but the first thing I thought when I saw him was "How did he get so skinny so fast?"

  29. I'm on the Seth Rogen/James Franco/Jonah Hill band wagon. Don't forget Jason Segal. I've read/seen interviews with most of them and they talk about smoking pot.

  30. James Franco isn't a pothead. I've been a fan since Freaks & Geeks and throughout the years he has always said in interviews that he doesn't smoke. Of course I can't find any of them now. I read one over the summer with Seth where he said that the cast of F&G would smoke together and James would be off in a corner by himself because he didn't. I also read one over the summer with James where he said students at Columbia had tried to give him weed because of Pineapple Express but that he refused because he doesn't partake.
    When asked if he smokes on Leno in August Seth's response was "I'm gonna say no but the answer is yes."
    That being said I don't think this is either of them but I have no idea who it is.
