www.pr-inside.com/followill-needs-drugs-to-perform-on-r163967.htmFOLLOWILL NEEDS DRUGS TO PERFORM ON STAGE Print article Refer to a friend Movie & Entertainment News provided by World Entertainment News Network (www.wenn.com) 2007-07-02 20:14:23 - KINGS OF LEON frontman CALEB FOLLOWILL has ditched cocaine - but he still relies on other drugs to get through his live performances. The singer stopped taking cocaine after seeing a photograph of himself looking painfully pale and gaunt. But the star admits he relies on the amphetamine-based narcotic Anderall to get him through live concerts. He says, "We just looked up one day, deathly pale, and said, 'This isn't good for us.' We'd wear so much make-up to cover it up, I'd wear lipstick... "Now I see a picture and go, 'What the f***! That was me?' We'd toured for years, then we went home and realised that what we wanted was a good night's sleep - you don't have to do cocaine. "Adderall helps me remember the lyrics. I don't take too much - just enough to get by."

Adderall is bad people. Here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AdderallAnyway... isn't this some tabloid stuff? I mean is this reliable news? Not that I don't believe that he might take something but it's hard to trust some stuff nowadays. |

Well I guess I'm glad he's stopped using coke, but now he's dependent on Adderall? These boys could really use a mommy on tour.

This just makes Caleb sound like a problem child-- like your typical badly behaved teen California girl.
He'll be the star of his own MTV show next. Oh, Caleb, just because your parents didn't make your 16th birthday party exactly how you wanted it to be doesn't mean you have to rebel and be such a little twat.

didn't paris hilton say she took that for ADD on Larry King Live? I know, I watched it, but I had no choice. She's just like a car crash. I could be wrong though

i have friends that use other drugs that are meant for people with ADD, and they say they are similar to cocaine in a lot of ways. i guess it doesn't seem as hardcore as coke, but probably just as bad for you if you abuse them.

Caleb batter be careful taking that stuff, then again, how do we even know this story is legit? I take everything I read with a grain of salt, especially when it comes to celebrity gossip.But then again, as much respect as I have for him. I would not think it to be that far fetched for him to be taking it. Who knows, maybe he does have a some form of ADD, which in some cases can mess with someone's memory.
