Kid Cudi opens up about dark past with weed addiction

Kid Cudi is spilling how his relationship with marijuana has shifted after a past of heavy addiction.
In a recent chat with People, the rapper opened up about his readmission to rehab back in November 2024, which he also shared in his book Cudi: The Memoir.
“I just was in this place where I was abusing it,” Cudi said. “I was really abusing it. I was smoking maybe 15 blunts a day, wake up in the mornings, get high. It truly ruled my life.”
Cudi, whose real name is Scott Mescudi, revealed that he even got sober for two months before he restarted taking it in moderation.
“And now I just get after it at night or on the weekends when I have the free time and I’m just relaxing, but I’m not smoking nowhere near as much weed as I was smoking before,” he detailed.
“A joint lasts me all day, damn near. So my relationship has changed with that in a major way. And I’m just more interested in being sober a lot more and being more present.”
Cudi added that cutting back has improved his acting. “Because in this movie, I cried a handful of times and it was easy to get there because I was sober,” he said. “There’s no way I could have done this if I was high as s***.”

Prince Harry’s takes a conscious step back from Meghan Markle

Prince Harry’s decision not to appear on season 2 of With Love, Meghan has caused a number of people to question his reasons.
The biggest being former BBC royal correspondent Jennie Bond.
She spoke to The Mirror while noting the difference from season 1 vs season 2.
For those unversed, in the final episode of season one, Prince Harry made a cameo in the final episode where a dinner party was hosted for friends and family.
Now, Ms Bond feels, the reason he did not attend season 2 is because “They are going their own ways now” and its evident from the fact that “Harry has taken a conscious step back and this is Meghan’s thing.”
“The influence celebrity social media path wasn’t Harry,” the expert also went as far as to say. “He’s doing things which are quasi royalty, the sort of stuff he was comfortable doing in his previous life.”
In regards to his wife, Ms Bond also admitted, “I think [Meghan’s] probably feeling a lot stronger now back in her home country and her own patch, and talking her own sort of California speak.”
As it stands, “she’s better rooted and happier and dealing with things in a more resilient fashion because of where she was.”

“You got a partner that’s different. Especially when it’s written and it’s a real thing. Like is this partner’s different?” he added.

The exes welcomed three children during their romance.

Pakistan assails India for releasing torrents from dams

- Water discharge worst example of India’s water aggression: minister.
- Ahsan Iqbal says India stores water and suddenly releases it.
- Decries India’s failure to timely share information with Pakistan.
Pakistan has assailed India for essentially “weaponising water”, with Planning and Development Minister Ahsan Iqbal saying that New Delhi abruptly and intentionally discharged the torrents from its dams.
“India has started using water as a weapon,” Iqbal said while speaking on Geo News‘ programme “Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Kay Sath” as he reflected on the wide-scale flooding in Punjab, which has left vast swathes of land inundated due to the overflowing of Ravi, Sutlej and Chenab rivers.
With at least seven people losing their lives in Punjab’s Gujranwala Division due to flooding, the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) has advised Sindh’s Provincial Disaster Management Authority (PDMA) Sindh to initiate the evacuation of vulnerable communities residing along the katcha (riverine) areas and low-lying belts of the Indus River and its tributaries.
Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz on Wednesday issued a series of directives to provincial and district authorities to accelerate relief and rehabilitation efforts in flood-affected areas.
The chief minister has ordered the field presence of commissioners and deputy commissioners, along with immediate documentation of damage caused to homes and crops.
She directed the district administrations to restrict people from entering flood zones.
Separately, speaking in a video statement while supervising rescue and relief efforts in Kartarpur, Iqbal termed the water discharge as a “worst example” of water aggression by India.
“India stores water on rivers and suddenly releases it,” the minister remarked, adding that New Delhi’s water aggression posed a threat to lives and properties.
“Some issues are beyond national disputes and political differences. Countries should put all differences aside and ensure cooperation on the issue of water resources.
India has also made natural disasters a source of politics. India did not share information with Pakistan in a timely manner,” he remarked, adding that New Delhi’s failure to do so was “extremely regrettable and inhumane”.
The minister’s remarks refer to the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) which binds both countries to share information with each other on water discharge. However, the treaty has been put in abeyance by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government in the aftermath of the Pahalgam attack in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) in April.
However, the Permanent Court of Arbitration in June, in a unanimous judgment binding on both countries, issued a Supplemental Award in the IWT case and stated that New Delhi could not unilaterally suspend the accord.
The arbitration court’s ruling confirmed that India’s unilateral actions could not undermine the jurisdiction of either the court of arbitration or the Neutral Expert in proceedings under the IWT.
Although India reached out to Pakistan to warn about a potential flood situation — due to water discharge — the move was carried out via diplomatic channels and not through the bilateral commission as required by the IWT.
