Is Angelina Jolie Coked Up in This Interview?
A man claiming to be Angelina Jolie's old drug dealer gave an interview to Life & Style. Among his accusations: She did a Charlie Rose interview high on cocaine. Here's video of the interview—does this woman seem high?

Angelina gave this interview to promote Girl, Interrupted. Ex-drug dealer Franklin Meyer claims he sold drugs to Angelina at the Chelsea Hotel and in her Upper West Side apartment: "She would generally spend about $100 each time—that would buy maybe half a gram of coke and a 10th of a gram of heroin. She would snort the cocaine and the heroin in front of me. It didn't seem to matter to her who else was there."
She does seem off-kilter, but now that the Lindsays and Britneys of the world careen around significantly worse states (and always on camera) it's almost quaint to think that this well-spoken woman was once considered a trainwreck. Two years after this Charlie Rose interview taped, Angelina adopted her first child and began a 180-degree reputation turnaround. [L&S, P6]
