British soulstress Joss Stone has once again caused controversy over her proclivity for smoking pot. In an interview with Star Magazine, Stone proudly proclaimed how much she enjoys marijuana:
I smoke weed, but I don’t think it’s really a drug. It’s more of a herb. I don’t regret saying that at all. I think everyone smokes weed and people who say they don’t are lying!…Weed has been given this evil stamp, but how is it dangerous? It’s going to make you laugh your arse off? You might go to sleep? I think alcohol is much more harmful.
'People beat the f**k out of each other on alcohol.
She also expressed interest in trying harder drugs, and these comments have drawn criticism from David Raynes, the head of the National Drugs Prevention Alliance:
She should consider the effects that her comments have on other people, especially young fans who look up to her. People like Joss Stone should keep their mouths shut about things like this.
Harsh! Maybe he oughta try a bit of whatever Stone is smoking. [Daily Mail]
And, now I find her even more attractive...
I feel like that's just evident to anyone who's seen people high and then seen them drunk.

Someone finally agrees with me on my philosophical pièce de résistance and it's freaking Joss Stone!
