Miley Cyrus Opens Up About Drug Use In Rolling Stone Interview





From twerking her heart at the MTV Music Awards last month, to shocking barely-there outfits, it could be said that Miley Cyrus is on a path to destruction. This month Cyrus covers the Rolling Stone magazine, and opens up about all of that, including her indulgence in drugs.

Miley states marijuana "is the best drug on earth. And Molly, too. Those are happy drugs-social drugs. They make you want to be with friends. You're out in the open. You're not in a bathroom," states the pop star in the recently released outtakes for the magazine. 

While the once innocent Disney star loves to partake in weed smoking and Molly poppin'  she makes a strong proclamation on cocaine, "I really don't like coke. It's so gross and so dark. It's like what are you, from the '90s? Ew."

Cyrus goes on to talk about experimenting with various hallucinogens, and making drug cocktails revealing,"One time I smoked a joint with peyote in it, and I saw a wolf howling at the moon."

We're not surprised about these new revelations from the controversial star. One can't help but wonder if all of this erratic behavior is attributed to her drug use, or is merely a cry for public attention. Either way, sounds like Miley needs to pump her brakes, and go back to the wholesome Hannah Montana that we know and love!

What do you think about Miley's latest confessions?

Kris Humphries Auctions Off Kim Kardashian's Gigantic Sparkler!


Going once...going twice...

Mr. Ex Kim Kardashian, Kris Humphries is auctioning off the reality star's enormous engagement ring to the highest bidder! After just 72 days of marriage, the new mom Kim K announced that she was splitting from NBA player.




The Lorraine Schwartz engagement ring boasts a 16.21 carat emerald cut center stone, and two 1.80-carat trapezoid stones on the side. Kris reportedly paid a cool $2 million back in 2011 for the ring, however it is reported that it most likely will only fetch a mere $300-$500K.



Looks like now our questions are finally laid to rest about who got the ring in the bitter divorce battle. Apparently, Kim, who is now the mother of Kanye West's child, secretly gave the ring back over a year ago. The ring is set to be auctioned off on October 15th at Christie's in Manhattan.

Christie's has declined to name the seller as Humphries, and has listed the seller as a "gentlemen." We can't help but feel a little bad for Kris...not only did his heart get broken, but so will his pockets with the resale value of the ring.

The potential silver lining to this ordeal, is that a portion of the proceeds from the auction are have said to be going to charity..at least one good thing will come from the whirlwind marriage!

Sofia Vergara Tops Forbes' Top Earning TV Actress List

Vergara's Million Dollar Smile!



ABC's Modern Family star, Sofia Vergara ranked #1 on this year's Forbes magazine's annual Celebrity 100 list as the Top Earning TV actress. The sexy starlet tops the list for a second year in a row, earning an estimated $30 million. This salary is not only attributed her fat Modern Family check, but it includes multiple endorsement and licensing deals with brands such as Kmart, Pepsi, Rooms to Go, and State Farm Insurance. 

Not only does she hold the reign of highest paid , but she's also highest in demand. Major brands see Vergara's face as a major payday for them, as brand bigwigs are thoroughly impressed with their investment, allowing them to aggressively target the Hispanic demographic. 

The Forbes list is calculated based on earnings between June 2012-June 2013, and tallies numbers based on completed projects and contracts made during the specified time. 
In addition, the list not only includes work done on television projects, but also endorsement and licensing deals, which Vergara is a long shot winner of. 

Coming up slowly behind Vergara in second and third place (with less than half of the star's earnings) are Kaley Cuoco (Big Bang Theroy), and Mariska Hargitay (Law & Order: SVU) earning only $11 million each (only $11 mill? Bummer..)

Tina Fey, The Kardashian sisters, Bethenny Frankel, Ellen Pompeo, and Melissa McCarthy are all tied at the $10 million mark.
