Recently we heard the interesting news that the famous rapper Snoop Dog was ready to step away from the world of smoking and made public through his social networks that he would never smoke again. From there, all the press paid attention, because they knew it would be something very interesting.
The rapper began to be a point of rumors, indicating that it is possibly a marketing strategy or that perhaps he would join the world of edibles, but the truth is that marijuana is always a very controversial topic, because when some leave, others arrive, as who has made publicly that he will now be a constant consumer.
Although it is not much of a surprise, it is known that rockstars have had a pretty wild life, and even directly related the consumption of narcotics, but recently it has been made public that the super star and rocker Ozzy Osbourne will now consume marijuana.
He told Rolling Stone U.K. (via The Sun), “I don’t fear dying, but I don’t want to have a long, painful and miserable existence. I like the idea that if you have a terminal illness, you can go to Switzerland and get it done quickly. I saw my father die of cancer.”
He added, “I said to Sharon that I’d smoked a joint recently and she said, ‘What are you doing that for? It’ll kill you!’ I said, ‘How long do you want me to live for?’ At best, I’ve got 10 years left and, when you’re older, time picks up speed.”Sharon added in a joint chat with The Sun about her husband’s health, “At times I’ve just felt so helpless and so bad for Ozzy. He’s gone through all these operations and the whole thing has felt like a nightmare. He hasn’t lost his sense of humor, but I look at my husband and he’s here while everyone else is out on the road. This is the longest time he hasn’t ever worked for. Being at home for so long has been so foreign to him.”
What do you think about the decisions celebrities are making? Do you think someone like Snoop Dog is ready to let go of an image as iconic as the one he currently has?
