Demi Moore


Back in the 1980's, Demi Moore was part of the Brat Pack that consisted of the hot actors of the day. The "core" members were Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Rob Lowe, Andrew McCarthy, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy. After an article appeared labeling then as the Brat Pack, many of them were so furious that they stopped socializing together. Some even blamed their eventual failing careers on the article. Subsequently, many used this excuse and resorted to drugs and other anti-social behaviors. Some went on to be really good actors. Demi Moore was one of the ones who made it.

St. Elmo's Fire was her big break and in 1985, she had to sign a contract that declared that she would stop her drug and alcohol abuse. Demi Moore is an excellent actress. In the early 1990's, she became one of the highest paid in Hollywood. I loved her movie, G.I. Jane. She has been married three times. Her second marriage to Bruce Willis had another Brat Pack member as one of her bridesmaids, Ally Sheedy.

But to get back to the drugs--it has been suggested that Demi Moore was smoking "spice" the other night when she went into convulsions. Spice is synthetic pot.

Right now, it is rumored that the PBSO is looking closely at a bar in downtown Lake Worth that has been accused of selling "spice." Synthetic cannabis can precipitate psychosis and in some cases it is prolonged. It has been banned in many states and others are also considering legislation to ban it, including Michigan, New Jersey, New York, Florida, Indiana, and Ohio. I wonder what Rep. Jeff Clemens thinks of this?
