UN: Celebrities ‘Glamorize’ Drugs
Sunday, November 18, 2007Celebrities such as Amy Winehouse and Kate Moss are glamorizing cocaine use and fueling problems in Africa, according to the UN’s drug chief. The Rehab singer, 24, and supermodel Moss, 33, were singled out by Antonio Maria Costa as he warned that drug use in Britain directly contributed to the ‘complete collapse’ of some West African countries where drug cartels corrupt vulnerable governments. He said: ‘Look at Kate Moss, who still receives lucrative contracts after she was photographed sniffing.
Rock stars like Amy Winehouse become popular singing, “I ain’t going to rehab”. A sniff here and a sniff there in Europe are causing another disaster in Africa. “Europeans now understand they should not buy blood diamonds, or clothes made in sweatshops. Yet with cocaine, the opposite occurs.” Colombian drug barons are sending scores of ‘mules’ to Europe every week from countries such as Nigeria and Ghana where local officials can be bought off, he claimed.
