Dudes, I'm like this after a cup of good coffee and I am the anti-drug. It's sad to me that you people think someone needs drugs to be enthusiastic, self-connected and high-energy. She's an inspiration!

[staystrange666]

she is so truly amazing, my personal idol. i hope i can see her new band soon

[Baphometxii]

Fuck that. Gamilel All yr drugs! ah, ha ha.

[veganazi]

I'm pretty sure she's anti-drug now.

Not that it even matters. Who cares if drugs played a part, as long as it's good music. And it is good music.

[Kibelmoralny]

she looks normal lmfao, where do you live? in monar? funny as hell

[RideMyBMW]

"Endorphinized!" XD! Yeah bay-bay!

[ianjccross]

I think your right, but don't forget caffeine is a drug as well

[morningstar1981]

i love her, she's so sexy!

i think she's totally high, 'cause i hang out with people that do drugs, and they look like that when they're high on cocaine.

ah, whatever, she is awesome!

Same here. Musician, daily user for 15+years. went to rehab, Still as weird as I was before, but much more dynamically so. Finally back on a new album. She not loaded. Have you seen her perform? She could not have that stamina fucked up. I still smoke pot but nothing like I did, and I don't mix drugs like I once did, and Gasp! My intellectual acumen is intact, but I don't have a drug haze of long term use clouding my vision and it's awesome.

[jun7per]

she is really nuts in a positive way.

you just gotta adore her love for music.

[plxplxkthx]

speaking as someone whos familiar with a lot of drugs i can safely tell you shes not on drugs

yeah shes being enthusiastic but she seems pretty lucid and her eyeballs arent saucers which would narrow it down away from most stimulants, as would the fact that shes capable to hold eye contact without getting bored and doesnt seem to have any muscle tensions going on. and clearly shes not doped cause her pupils arent pinpointed, her voice isnt croaky and shes not nodding out.
