Stars, just like anyone else, have skeletons in their closets. And when you’re young and struggling, it can be hard to make ends meet unless you pursue some…extra-legal means. Here’s a list of some celebs who’ve sold drugs. But don’t judge too harshly.


IDRIS ELBA
Before becoming an actor, Idris Elba worked a number of odd jobs: DJ, doorman, and drug dealer. In 2013, Elba told GQ Magazine that he used to push bags of weed while working as a doorman at Caroline’s in New York City. Don’t get him wrong though, it’s not like he’s proud of what he did. He said he sold drugs because he had to, adding, “I know that sounds corny, but this is the truth.” Of course, once acting began to pan out for him, he gave up dealing, but he was able to draw from his experience while portraying the drug dealer Stringer Bell on HBO’s The Wire. Now that’s method acting.

D’banj and Big Sean felt the cool breeze of Lagos riding in his Aston Martin Convertible…looking forward to a wonderful show.

Things didn’t turn out as planned though, well, according to people with high hopes before the show.

“The first of many problems was the distance from the Eko Atlantic entrance to the venue of the show – all of 20km. While cars were getting stuck in the sandy ground and traffic was building up, eager fans decided to walk the distance hoping that their ‘endurance trek’ would be compensated with a good show…During the show, popular OAP Matse of Nigeria Info 99.3 commented on Instagram ‘At the Koko Concert. I swear getting a regular ticket is far better than VIP and VVIP. #KokoConcert #2012’,” NET reports.

The show wasn’t totally a bad one though, but it sure didn’t live up to people’s expectation
