From the Archives: CSI’s Gary Dourdan
According to the Mighty Dan Gross, via TMZ, former Willingboro-ite and West Philadelphian Gary Dourdan was arrested yesterday in Palm Springs for allegedly possessing heroin, cocaine, ecstasy and prescription drugs. As Dan pointed out, we knew the CSI actor was a weed-head from this snippet from an interview in our May 2007 issue, but the hard stuff? Gateway drug, indeed.
Exit Interview: This is something I pulled from my primary journalistic resource — Wikipedia — so it’s possible it’s not true. I read that your appreciation for a certain herb got you in trouble on the CSI set.
Gary Dourdan: Nah, that’s not true at all. I’ve never gotten in trouble for anything on the set. [laughs] Of course, I have an appreciation for the herb, because I’m a Rastafari. Actors, directors and executives — everyone I know smokes weed. Everybody thinks I’m the guy who knows where the good weed is.
EI: And you probably do.
GD: I actually do. [laughs]

Why do people say stupid shit like ‘I’m a Rastafarai?’ What a fucking moron. Would he don a yarmulke and say ‘I’m a Jew?’ You smoke weed, you are not a follower of Haile Selassie I of Ethiopia, right? Jeez.
