Hollywood's New Fruit Addiction

Strawberry CocaineThere has been some recent buzz in Hollywood about a so-called "strawberry cocaine." TMZ did some crack investigating and got the low down on the blow.

Flavored cocaine is nothing new, we're told. Law enforcement sources tell us that since the 80s people have been buying coke in all sorts of flavors, including rum and cherry, and now it appears strawberry is back and all the rage.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ that strawberry flavoring is added to the drug to give it its fruity flavor. Years ago just adding food coloring was a big thing-- brown and red cocaine were the talk of the town. Theoretically, you could make or add any flavor you'd like to the drug.

Hollywood insiders tell TMZ that this drug has exploded in the club scene, and not only has cocaine made a huge comeback, the strawberry version is definitely rearing its ugly head again. Like leggings and skinny jeans, this dangerous pastime is back full force.

16. well everyone should know by now, most of the celebrities do this. NOT just paris, lindsey, or nichole. Just where do ya think they get all their energy to party all night long. Paris got a dui only had 1 drink, well that should tell ya that something else besides alchohol was involved.

20. To post #16 : You do the love the sound of a chirping bird in the morning when you have had no sleep, don't you ? Ha ha.

Talk about it all coming back like a bad dream. For sure all of young Hollywood is dabbling in this drug again. I remember when Lindsey Lohan lost her wallet in N.Y. and the person that found it said there was coke in it. Of course she denied , denied. ( I just wonder if it was still there when the wallet was returned. ) ha ha ha lol. Everytime I see one of these young actresses lose a lot of weight. I think.....hmmmm......I bet they did with a little help from Mr. cocaine.

22. For sure Kate Bosworth is doing coke. Did you see the pictures of her on Perez Hilton's website ? My god. She looks discusting. She is a pirates every dream : A sunken chest. Take a look. They even have a picture of her with mock cocaine dripping out of her nose. The pictures are shocking and alarming even by Hollywood standards. SHe needs an INTERVENTION. Quick somebody call Dr.

24. I heard that Strawberry Nesquick is actually methamphetamine, not cocaine. Perez said something about it on his site, and "quick" i.e. "speed", which is another name for meth...

25. Wow, I'm so with the person who said the sleepless mornings with the birds chirping. That's sucks! so glad I'm
I also saw on Perez's site about the strawberry Nesquik and wondered what the heck? Now I guess we know.

26. That is definately the truth about hearing the birds chirp. Equally worse is if you partied on a work night and had to function on only a couple hours of sleep after staying up all night. Those days are gone, but it sure was fun I must admit. It is true that those that have continued to party hard don't look so great today.

27. FUNNY #23!!! LOL! Kate looks like a crack whore... I did quite a bit of coke in the late eighties and NEVER saw or heard of such a thing. I guess I wasn't as "hip" as the rest of them. Let them all "blow" their heads off with the stuff!!

28. Looks like no one has learned anything from the 54 days. What a shame.......

29. Post # 19 : Maybe that guy didn't snort it. He just Shot it up. The high is quicker and maybe he couldn't wait.

I don't know too many people who are exposed to this drug on regular basis that haven't at least tried it. He might be the only one.
Hillary Duff lost a lot of weight. Ummmmm..........................makes ya wonder.

30. I have worked in clubs for years and years and believe me ,seen tons of coke. Flavored or colored coke is nothing I have ever seen or heard of. How can something make a comeback when I swear it never existed. Where do you find your info?
