Celebrities&Drugs This is something that's always bugged me:How come celebrities can admit to taking drugs or whatever in interviews,but no legal action is taken?Does it have something to do with needing physical evidence or what?

Yes, it's basically word of mouth. In order to legally charge someone for possession/use of drugs, the courts would need to see the physical evidence, which includes the actual police report that has the drug found. So for example when Lindsay Lohan says she tried pot, they cant just arrest because they havent actually seen her use pot, for all they know she can be lying for publicity (even though we all know that it's not the case) ]
In the same sense that I could say that someone I know smokes pot, and they probably wouldn't have anything aginst them. I know celebrities are different in that sense, but word of mouth is really weak when it comes to drug offenses. They need the hard evidence. ]
Yup, I've wondered about this before too. Even though it seems like they all get away with it, there has been celebrities who have been put in jail for drugs. Some celebrities were underage at the time the did drugs, so they were put in rehab. Still, it doesn't seem fair that the law doesn't go looking for evidence on lots of celebrities. Oh well =] ]
haha life's not fair is it.
they dont have the actual drugs that were in their possetion at the time, so legally their safe. now if they got pulled over while havin a doobie or hittin some veins, then yah they'd get taken in. ]
urg i no!!!!! many celebrities get away with that stuff just cuz they are who they are. im sure if they wanted evidence they culd go get it!!!! i want to become a celeb cop one day lol
hope i helped :) ]
Plenty of them have been caught and jailed.
You have it right though. It isn't enough for them to just admit using drugs. If the law wants to lock them them up they need some good hard evidence. :) ]
