Marijuana celebrities

Many celebrities and famous talented people confess to using marijuana as a medication helping them relax, feel better, find inspiration for their work and give a positive energy for their performances.
Marijuana, widely known as a natural and mild painkiller, is also used by many famous people as a medicine helping them fight with random pains such as headache or pains accompanying serious diseases, including AIDS and cancer.

There is a hypothesis, that even Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, history's most famous composer, had some close encounters with Cannabis. It is said that he used to eat some kind of bon-bons which included small amounts of Cannabis, this plant growing quite widely in his times in Germany and Austria. Most possible explanation for Mozart using Cannabis were his permanent health problems.

Another famous person who used to ease his disease-related pains with cannabis use was Patrick Swayze. This famous American actor, dancer and singer is well known worldwide for his many film creations. In 2008 Patrick Swayze was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. He has been fighting the disease for more than a year and a half but eventually lost the battle in 2009. Swayze stated that smoking marihuana helps him in such troubles as nausea, insomnia and anxiety.

But, of course, marihuana is not only about improving your health. It is also about being high and feeling good. Many celebrities, who have no serious problems with their health, smoke marihuana to relax or just feel better.

A great popstar, George Michael, is known as one of the biggest cannabis celebrities in showbusiness. He was even smoking a joint while being interviewed for "The South Bank Show", a British Television network ITV program. He then said: "This stuff keeps me sane and happy".

Even USA's best known President, Abraham Lincoln used to enjoy the taste and magical properties of weed. He once wrote in a letter:
"Two of my favorite things are sitting on my front porch smoking a pipe of sweet hemp, and playing my Hohner harmonica."

Last but not least, extremely popular American actor, Johnny Depp, admits to be smoking cannabis frequently and considers it to be better and safer than alcohol, which he used to drink a lot until his children were born. This famous marijuana celebrity said in an interview with Film Review Magazine in June 2001.:
"Look, I have nothing to hide, I'm not a great pothead or anything like that, but weed is much, much less dangerous than alcohol."

He also told GQ magazine, that he don't want his kids in the future to get their marijuana from the street and he would rather give it them himself .

As you see, marijuana use is very popular in showbusiness life. Many famous, successful people smoke weed and are very creative so it just has to be good!
