Prince Harry Slammed for Glorifying Drug Use and Victimhood
The Duke of Sussex, Prince Harry, is being chastised for praising the benefits of drug use. During a live-streamed interview, Prince Harry stated that cannabis “really helped” with mental health issues related to his mother’s death.
Harry also extolled the “positive” effects of Ayahuasca, a psychedelic drug. Harry claimed that it helped him relax and feel lighter for a while.
According to the Daily Mail, Prince Harry spoke with Canadian therapist Dr. Gabor Mate, a supporter of drug decriminalization who has allegedly used ayahuasca to treat patients suffering from mental illness.
Cocaine, according to Harry, “didn’t do anything for me.”
The comments were “concerning,” according to Fiona Spargo-Mabbs, who founded a drugs education charity in her son Daniel’s name after he died of an accidental MDMA overdose at 16.
“Our work is with under-18s, and our concern is that this could send a message to young people that drugs will help them with really difficult things,” she said.
As a TV presenter, Kirstie Allsopp also chastised Prince Harry, tweeting: “If you have a vast platform, you don’t mouth off about using illegal drugs, the trade that kills people.”
A royal biographer says Prince Harry is “only interested in promoting himself and Meghan” following another televised interview. The Duke of Sussex participated in a Q&A session with physician and trauma expert Dr. Gabor Maté, who diagnosed Prince Harry with ADD, PTSD, and other disorders on the spot.
The session in which Harry opened up about his use of drugs, including psychedelics, cocaine, and marijuana, was deemed “reckless” by Tom Bower, author of Revenge: Meghan, Harry, and the War Between the Windsors.
“I thought it was pretty cringe-worthy. “It was so self-indulgent, anguish, money-making, and, of course, his promotion that drugs helped him, even the most dangerous drugs, psychedelic drugs,” the royal biographer opined.
“I think he’s dim, I think he’s self-interested, and I think he’s pretty dangerous,” he said. But, in the end, it all comes down to money.”
During the Q&A, Prince Harry stated that he received no benefit from cocaine but praised psychedelics and marijuana, which are legal for adults to consume in California. He stated that cannabis “really helped” him.
“The first one you mentioned [cocaine] didn’t do anything for me; it was more of a social thing. It gave me a sense of belonging and probably made me feel different than I was,” Harry explained. “Marijuana is different; it helped me.”
“I think what it shows is what a grubby life he is now leading in the sense that he is only interested in promoting himself and, of course, Meghan and getting money out of being a member of the Royal Family,” Tom Bower told GB News.
“[He is] not being responsible for what he is saying anymore or the damage he is causing to his family and Britain. Unfortunately, the damage is extensive. Every time he appears, Britain’s reputation suffers a little more.”
Mr. Bower added that he believed that the idea the Sussexes should come to Britain for the Coronation was “quite repellent”.
A spokesperson for Meghan and Harry confirmed that the Sussexes had been invited to the Coronation, but it is unknown whether the couple will attend.
The interview over the weekend was the most recent in a series of media appearances by the Duke of Sussex before and after the publication of his memoir Spare.
The Prince opens up about the death of his mother, Princess Diana, in the book, which became an instant best-seller, and leveled a series of accusations at the Royal Family.
Royal observers are now waiting to see if he and his wife, Meghan Markle, will attend King Charles III’s Coronation on May 6 this year.
Chris Rock Mocks Prince Harry and Meghan
In his new Netflix special, comedian Chris Rock satirizes Meghan Markle’s race claim, aiming at comments the Duchess of Sussex made during her interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which she accused an unnamed member of the Royal Family of racism and stated that she felt isolated within the royal household.
The comedian ruthlessly mocked Meghan’s claim, suggesting she was dealing with “some in-law s***” while noting that she won the “light-skinned lottery”.
In addition, Rock stated that “even black people want to know how brown” her child would be in a brutal takedown.
Meghan became the punchline to the US comedian’s jokes about victimhood.
“Like, who exactly is Meghan Markle? “She seems like a nice lady, just complaining,” he started. “Like, didn’t she win the lottery for fair skin?”
Last year, Rock went all in on Meghan’s now-famous interview with Oprah.
“‘They’re so racist, they’re so racist,” says one. “Some of that s*** she went through was not racism,” Rock mocked the Duchess. It was just some in-law nonsense.
“Sometimes it’s just some in-law nonsense because she’s complaining, and I’m like, ‘What the f*** is she talking about?'”
“‘Oprah, they’re so racist they wanted to know how brown the baby was going to be,” the SNL comedian continued, mocking Meghan once more. “I’m like, ‘That’s not racist; even black people want to know how brown the baby will be.'”
During an interview with journalist Tom Bradby in January, Prince Harry denied Meghan accused him of racism.
When asked about his wife’s comments to Oprah in March 2021, the duke replied, “Yeah, there were concerns about his skin color.”
Asked whether he would not describe that as “essentially racist”, Harry said: “I wouldn’t. Not having grown up in that family.
“Returning to what my understanding is, based on my own experience, the difference between racism and unconscious bias – the two things are different.”
Asked by Oprah about whether she believed the Royal Family allegedly hadn’t wanted their son Archie to be a prince “because of his race”, Meghan replied: “But I can give you an honest answer.
“In those months when I was pregnant … we have in tandem the conversation of, ‘He won’t be given security. He will not be given a title, and there will be concerns and discussions about how dark his skin will be when he is born.”
The Duchess told a stunned Oprah that “there were several conversations about it,” but she would not reveal who made the remarks because “I think that would be very damaging to them.”
“That was relayed to me from Harry,” she added when pressed further. Those were conversations he had with his family… It was extremely difficult to see those as separate conversations.”
When Oprah asked if the question about Archie’s skin color was raised “because they were concerned that if he was too brown, that would be a problem,” “I wasn’t able to follow up with why, but that — if that’s the assumption you’re making, I think that feels like a pretty safe one,” Meghan explained.
Rock’s takedown comes after Harry and Meghan were spoofed in the latest season of South Park, which followed a “prince and princess of Canada” as they embarked on a “Worldwide Privacy Tour”.
Retired Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce destroyed a Penn State football fan’s phone after the alleged heckler called his brother, Travis Kelce, a fag.
In now-viral footage published on X (previously Twitter) on Saturday, Nov. 2, the retired Philadelphia Eagles great was seen accompanied by football fans outside Beaver Stadium in State College, Pa., for the Penn State-Ohio State game.
As the individual capturing the tape lifted a fist to Jason, 36, and called his name for a fist bump, another man nearby hurled the homophobic slur at the retired Philadelphia Eagles star.
Hey, Kelce. How does it feel that your brother is a queer dating Taylor Swift?” the man questioned, referring to Travis, 34, who has been seeing Swift since 2023. Jason turned around seconds later, snatched the man’s phone, and crushed it to the ground.
“Looked like a Penn State student was getting in Kelce’s face for no reason,” the original X user who submitted the video remarked. “Wild scene in State College.”
“Kelce how does it feel that your brother is a f****t for dating Taylor Swift?”
Jason Kelce proceeded to slam this kids phone on the ground.

Additional footage on X shows Jason smashing the phone on asphalt before picking it up and walking away. The phone’s owner, wearing a Penn State hoodie at the time of the incident, was shown in many videos strolling closely behind Jason and recording him before the conflict occurred.
Another footage published on X, which appears to have been filmed after Jason shattered the man’s phone, showed the hooded Penn State supporter trudging through a mob to pick up his phone off the ground.
“Give me my phone, bro,” he seemed to say to Jason.
The NFL alum seized the gadget first, then stood in front of the man and asked, “Who’s the fag now?” Others appeared to interfere.
The incident occurred while Jason was at Beaver Stadium for an appearance on ESPN’s College GameDay. The Ohio State Buckeyes won Saturday’s game 20-13 over the Penn State Nittany Lions.

Shaun White’s Proposal To Nina Dobrev Was Romantic Gold
According to a Vogue interview published Wednesday, Shaun said he assembled a team of people from the couple’s inner circle and Vogue personnel to trick Dobrev into thinking she had been invited to an intimate dinner party with Anna Wintour.

He even asked Dobrev’s stylist to outfit her in Chanel for the event.
Dobrev said she recognized what was happening when she entered the venue and saw White standing beneath the flowery arch.

Hollywood actress Teri Garr, known for her roles in classics like “Young Frankenstein” and “Tootsie,” has passed away at 79. She died Tuesday of multiple sclerosis “surrounded by family and friends,” said publicist Heidi Schaeffer.
Admirers took to social media in her honor, with writer-director Paul Feig calling her “truly one of my comedy heroes. I couldn’t have loved her more” and screenwriter Cinco Paul saying: “Never the star, but always shining. She made everything she was in better.”
Throughout her career, the performer, often known as Terri, Terry, or Terry Ann, seemed destined for show business from a young age.
Her father was Eddie Garr, a well-known vaudeville comic, and her mother was Phyllis Lind, one of the original high-kicking Rockettes at New York’s Radio City Music Hall. Their daughter began dancing classes at six and was performing with the San Francisco and Los Angeles ballet companies by age fourteen.
She was 16 years old when she joined the road crew of “West Side Story” in Los Angeles, and she began starring in small roles in films as early as 1963.
In an interview from 1988, she described how she landed the role in “West Side Story.” After being rejected at her initial audition, she returned the following day dressed differently and was accepted.
Teri Garr, a comedian
Teri Garr then found steady work as a movie dancer, appearing in the chorus of nine Elvis Presley films, including “Viva Las Vegas,” “Roustabout,” and “Clambake.”
She has also appeared on various television shows, including “Star Trek,” “Dr. Kildare,” and “Batman,” and was a featured dancer on the rock ‘n’ roll music show “Shindig,” the rock concert performance “T.A.M.I.,” and a cast member of “The Sonny and Cher Comedy Hour.”
Her breakthrough role was as Gene Hackman’s girlfriend in Francis Ford Coppola’s 1974 thriller The Conversation. This led to an interview with Mel Brooks, who offered her the Gene Wilder’s German lab assistant role in Young Frankenstein if she could speak with a German accent.
“Cher had this German woman, Renata, making wigs, so I got the accent from her,” Garr once said.
The film established her as a great comic performer, with New Yorker film writer Pauline Kael calling her “the funniest neurotic dizzy dame on screen.”
Her big smile and off-center appeal helped her land roles in “Oh, God!” with George Burns and John Denver, “Mr. Mom” (as Michael Keaton’s wife), and “Tootsie,” in which she played the girlfriend who loses Dustin Hoffman to Jessica Lange and discovers he has dressed up as a woman to revive his career.
A gift for spontaneous humor
Teri Garr, best known for comedy, has shown in films such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, The Black Stallion, and The Escape Artist that she can also tackle drama.
She had a gift for spontaneous humor, frequently playing David Letterman’s foil during early guest appearances on N.B.C.’s “Late Night With David Letterman”.
Her appearances grew so frequent, and the pair’s good-natured bickering so convincing that rumors of romantic involvement circulated for a while. Years later, Letterman acknowledged those early appearances with helping the program become a success.
During those years, Garr began to experience “a little beeping or ticking” in her right leg. It started in 1983 and expanded to her right arm, but she thought she could handle it. By 1999, her symptoms had gotten so bad that she saw a doctor and was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.
After disclosing her diagnosis, Garr became a spokesman for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, giving hilarious remarks at events in the United States and Canada.
