Jared Leto Opens Up About Doing Drugs as a Teenager

Jared Leto sports longer hair under a baseball cap on Wednesday afternoon (July 27) in New York City.

In case you didn’t know, the 44-year-old Suicide Squad member goes shirtless on the latest cover of Rolling Stone.

During the interview, he opened up about doing drugs when he was younger.

“My experience with drugs?” Jared told the mag. “I did them, lots of them. A lot of them were really fun. There are just those few that tend to kick you in the ass. I guess at some point, too, there’s a decision: Is this going to be my life? I made a choice to pursue other dreams. I guess that’s just the kind of fucked thing about a lot of drugs: The opportunity cost is too high. Some drugs are incredible, but the risk versus reward is out of line. I just saw too many examples of what not to do.”
