More and more, it feels like marijuana is less of an “issue.” This might have been what it felt like for kids and young adults in the 1960s & 1970s, before the War On Drugs tried to convince people that pot was a stepping stone to crack and heroin. Nowadays, more than half the country believes pot should be legalized in some form. So why is it even noteworthy that a major celebrity was smoking a doob at the Met Gala? Eh.
Lady Gaga was spotted hanging in a corner of her Met Gala after-party with cannabis-loving Miley Cyrus, where guests commented, “It reeked of pot.”
Gaga was seen taking a puff from what looked like a funny-smelling cigarette. Then again, spies at the earlier Met Gala said they saw Gaga slipping out of the party with designer Alexander Wang to smoke a cigarette as guards blocked photographers, and Gaga joked between puffs, “It’s better than trying to sneak a cigarette in the ladies room. I don’t want to get kicked out of the Met.”
Is this really scandalous? Not really. I’m only surprised that Gaga wasn’t partaking in some harder substance at the Met Gala (and everywhere else). I have a hard time believing Gaga or anyone else would be kicked out of the Met Gala for smoking some weed. Hell, I have a hard time believing anyone would be kicked out of the Met Gala for snorting cocaine in the bathroom.
Now, all that being said… Alexander Wang smokes pot?! I bet he’s giggly when he gets high.

That means that she’s not pregnant as i read somewhere.
A lot of people smoke pot (and even cigs!) While pregnant, unfortunately.
I hope that she’s not that irresponsible.
A good friend of mine smoked pot during her entire pregnancy. She even asked her Dr. first to make sure it was ok. He said “Don’t tell anyone I told you, but it is fine. Just do it in moderation.” Her son is now a teenager. He is smart as a whip and such a gentleman. In moderation is key with anything.
Shit son, I would inject heroin at that man’s side if it allowed me to admire that man’s bone structure for a few minutes close up.
LMAO
He DOES have great bone structure doesn’t he?
And beautiful skin, it just glows.

My senses must be limited, I can’t see what looks like a smell. Who wrote this sentence anyway?
Reefer Madness School Principal?
LOL
The obviously studied her poo afterwards to corroborate the “cigarette”.
I understand it resembled a beautiful dying dog sunset.
That’s how I read it too.
Can I volunteer to be that principal?
Excellent summary Kiddo!! It is long since time for the reefer madness hysteria to die its well-deserved death.
I knew that Miley was on something during the met ball.
‘I knew that Miley was on something.’
There fixed that for you 😉
Kiddo-Reefer Madness scared the $hit ou me when I was little!! EEk. As for Gaga smoking with AW, all I can say is she’s a lucky girl. He is so beautiful. Unf!
Really? I thought Reefer madness was hysterical.
“hysterics” would absolutely describe it.
The piano player was my favorite.
I had no idea Alexander Wang was so young. And yes, he’s beautiful! 🙂
He is ADORABLE! Love him.
Pot isn’t a big deal, but I live in a state where it’s legal.
You’re soo lucky 🙁
Same. I’ve never understood why it was a big deal, so when the legalization came up I was all for it. Sure, some people abuse it, but we’ve got chain smokers and alcoholics out there too so it was always a stretch for me to believe that pot was somehow magically so much worse.
Pot’s not a big deal at all but it seems a little trashy to be smoking it at the Gala
^^this
Exactly. Edibles are so much classier.
I almost spit my coffee out at this comment!
Concentrates for the win!! Flowers are so…last decade… 😉
Yes, it’s much better to smoke before, like SJP’s stylist. Then you can have shits and giggles DURING the event when everyone thinks your goof is awesome.
Smoking at a gala…period. Surely this was outside?
Met Gala after-party
It was both at the Met Gala (outside) and at the after-party. Seriously, read the Page Six item again.
Honestly, a more shocking report would be: “All Attendees Completely Sober, No Drugs Were Consumed at Met Gala.”
It happened at the after party anyway. It sounds like she was smoking tobacco cigarettes during.
She didn’t actually put out a press release, It sounds like it was put out by a high school advisor from the 1950s.
Wtf kind of bourgeois party would it be if this didn’t happen?
Hm, yeah. Total non-issue.
The first time I saw “Reefer Madness” I was baked on Moroccan hash and laughed myself about sick. I live in Boulder now where our first legal retail stores opened in 2014, and things just keep getting better. However, as was mentioned upthread, a lovely mint-sized edible would have more tasteful for the occasion, and doubles as a breath mint. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have brownies in the oven…
