In her 60 Minutes interview, triple Grammy winner Lady Gaga tells Anderson Cooper, "I smoke a lot of pot when I write music. I'm not gonna sugarcoat it for 60 Minutes that I'm like some sober human being 'cause I'm not. I drink a lot of whiskey and I smoke weed when I write. I don't do it a lot because it's not good for my voice."

Sit down, America; this may come as a shock. Sometimes Lady Gaga, among other people in the entertainment industry, gets high. I know, you think you know -- you've heard about that Charlie Sheen and that Lindsay Lohan and their arrests and their rehabs and E! True Hollywood Stories. But get this: Sometimes famous people just smoke a little weed and they don't even develop a substance abuse problem or go to jail. Crazier still, this happens all the time to regular folks as well.

Maybe this isn't revelatory to you, Cheech. The history of pop culture is infused with the herbal aroma of the "Harold and Kumar" franchise, certain green-themed Showtime series, and the Black Crowes' set list. Actor Jack Black has admitted to "an occasional celebratory jay," while Sarah Silverman says, "I have contempt for pretty much every drug other than pot." And Woody Harrelson and Snoop Dogg have practically made second careers of their enthusiasm for it, predilections slyly referenced in such mainstream venues as Martha Stewart's show.

Breaking news: Kevin Smith and Seth Rogen smoke weed. OK, maybe it's not so surprising, considering the "stoner" movies the two have been involved with in the past, but Smith sat down with MTV News to explain how funnyman Rogen recently turned him onto marijuana -- and how it's the best thing that has happened to him in five years.

Smith, who directed Rogen in 2008's 'Zack and Miri Make a Porno,' claims Rogen is one of the most talented people he's ever worked with.

Hollywood legend Jack Nicholson has broken his long silence on marijuana. In an interview with the the Daily Mail, the 73-year-old Nicholson says he still smokes pot:

"I don’t tend to say this publicly, but we can see it’s a curative thing. The narcotics industry is also enormous. It funds terrorism and – this is a huge problem in America - fuels the foreign gangs. More than 85% of men incarcerated in America are on drug-related offenses. It costs $40,000 a year for every prisoner."

Treuherzig zeigte Martin Semmelrogge bei einer Verkehrskontrolle im Januar einen spanischen Führerschein. Sein Pech: Das Dokument ist in Deutschland nicht gültig. Das Amtsgericht Freiburg verurteilte den Schauspieler deshalb jetzt zu einer Bewährungsstrafe.

..... Ein Bluttest hatte zudem ergeben, dass der Schauspieler Haschisch oder Marihuana konsumiert hatte. Semmelrogge bestätigte vor Gericht, dass er drei Tage vorher einen Joint geraucht habe. Dies hatte auf das Strafmaß allerdings keinen Einfluss, weil nach ärztlicher Einschätzung keine Gefahr im Straßenverkehr mehr bestand.

The greatest endorsement for drugs is, well, how often celebrities, the people who pretty much have it all, do them. So here's a great collection of all the greatest times a celebrity has been caught high on camera: from cocaine to "salvia", from Lohan to Moss.

TMZ has obtained cell phone footage of Miley Cyrus smoking a bong and giggling a lot. Sources claim she wasn’t smoking pot, but the legal herb salvia — a nice variation on the classic Clinton Defense (how I’ve missed the ‘Bill Clinton inhale’ jokes since Leno stopped doing them in 2008!) Even if nothing illegal is happening here, the obligatory backpedaling from Miley and her disappointed overlords should be entertaining.

"They better leave Willie the f--- alone!" a heated Snoop told TMZ. "Willie Nelson is a legend, man. Really, sometimes you gotta back off certain people and have a certain amount of respect for your elders. Willie Nelson is our elder. He's somebody who lived through many decades of music and hard times and whatnot and living good and going up and down. So give him that respect."
