Kate Moss

Although in the cigarettes defence, it does wonders for the economy

Anyway, you have not right to call drug users socially retarded.  You have no right to downgrade someone ......i mean, ANYONE who takes drugs, of any kind is worth NOTHING BUT CRITISM? Give me a break  


And prat has one t.

[Jezebel]

Hmmm ok....it seems like you're all trying to make it seem like taking drugs isn't a bad thing when clearly it is, especially when people have responsibilities and such...

So, could we try and keep the "drug promoting" and such out of this discussion?

[Elfy]

*retreats slightly too* Although I NEVER back down from a debate (well only with my sister)

Yes she is cool, but being a cokehead is really not cool!

Good match though

Kurt Cobain was a smackhead, was he a bad father?

 I think he didn't get a chance.

 And to be honest I think he might have been on a high when the baby was conceived.

 Wasn't the girl going to be taken from Courtney Love anyway if she didn't mend her ways?  

 Honest I have no problem with it, as I said so long as we can put them all in a safe environment (including people I have considered friends) and then feed them overdoses.

 I recall going to a party and having one of these so called friends put something in my drink. I had to make for the car because I was losing basic motor functions and I feared that if I collapsed somewhere else than in the car I would be left behind when these junkheads were to go back home. I did lose all motor functions for hours even tho I remained somewhat conscious and rather shiverish, and the only thing I could move was my eyes   (more or less like that  )

 Now we were in the country, so I imagine if they had left me there, if I had not locked myself in the car to prevent them from leaving me there (possible), especially since they seem to become somewhat ignorant of the basics of common sense.

 Obviously I didn't like it, I liked them less after that and if it had not been because their mother was a good friend I would have shown them what their teeth look like after they spat them  

 So what do I think of them? pah let them do it, but all locked away.

Please keep the discussion within the topic range and do not descend into personal insults.

Thank you. 

Now, the people who are having a sensible debate may continue.... please forgive my intrusion.

I don't think drug promotion is quite what it's about. As a role model Kate Moss should've thought about what she was getting into. It's the same as anyone who gets wasted in public and ends up making an ass of themselves, cos that's what she's done, although I see it as more serious as there is a small child involved.

[Jezebel]

Thing is, there are loads of people who get wasted, but their faces don't get plastered all over the media...

It's all because she is famous.  She has money.  She basically has (or had should I say) the world at her feet and that is why her face is plastered all the media.  That is why her name is being dragged through the mud...

It's not fair to be honest.  She's just a normal person like everyone else.  She has feelings, emotions and stuff like that so why should she be treated as if she is a bad person?

[Waelith]

I am afraid the media just doesnt see it like that.
the media are the ones who put you up there on a pedestal, and they have the same power to knock you right off again...

Its the risk you take when becoming a famous icon, whether its a model, pop star. or whatever!

[Beleriel]

I think it is perfectly fair.  She has done wrong so she should suffer the consequences just like anyone else.  Dont forget Jezz that any of us who did such a thing would probably lose our jobs if they found out about it.  It is exactly the same. 

[Elfy]

LMAO Ibby!

Although it's good that the cops are cracking down on celebs, its bad that they should need to. They should be treated as any other Joe Bloggs on the street and not seen as being above the law.

Agreed 

They are people like everyone else, and so should be treated the same.

[Rwar]

I heard on the news last night that Boy George has been arrested because the police found cocaine in his apartment, seems they're having a crack down (no pun intended) on celebs...

That's true. He was arrested in possesion of cocaine. Don't know what happened afterward though.

[Jezebel]

Yeah fair enough, but why should her name be plastered all over the newspapers for everyone to know?

If someone who worked in your local co-op was found out doing cocaine, their name wouldn't be plastered over the newspapers, would it?

Sure, celebrities shouldn't be treated as if they are above everyone else so why should their names be plastered all over for the world to know about it?

THAT is what I think is unfair...

[Beleriel]

oh right, I see.  You dont think if you are taken to court and done for something it isnt plastered all over the papers?? 

Think again, because it does. 

I still stand by my assertions.  No one should get special treatment.  It sickens me that celebrities seem to live under special rules... separate from the rest.

She's not the first model to be involved with drugs, and she wont be the last.

Do you know how easy it is to access drugs and other illegal substances when you're "famous"? It's everywhere, it's becoming increasingly hard for these kinds of people to avoid it - I actually only know of two models who have spoken up about the dark side of modelling and were able to avoid it.

Kate Moss DOES need to realise that she needs help in beating the drugs for her child's sake as well as her own, and I think she should leave Pete Doherty too since I'm sure he's not helping her in getting clean, however I don't think everyone should be using her as an example like this, it's cruel and as I said, she is NOT the only model to take drugs and they should stop treating her like she is, they know very well that she isn't.

(I'm not defending her by the way, I despise drugs, I just think people shouldn't act as though she's the only celebrity/model to sadly resort to them)
