London: Actor Lily Allen has been slammed for "glamourising drug use" after the singer shared photographs of herself being carried out of an awards ceremony. Allen, 33, told her social media followers that she had accidentally
taken the drug ketamine at the Glamour Awards in 2008 after someone asked Twitter users for the "best reason
you've been kicked out of an event, building or group", reports mirror.co.uk.
The singer wrote: "Someone gave me a line of what I assumed to be cocaine at the Glamour Awards once, but it turned out to be ketamine. I was thrown out (passed over some railings) of the Glamour Awards for being in a k hole." Ketamine is a powerful anaesthetic which can cause a loss of feeling in the body, paralysis of the muscles and it can distort reality for users.
She added: "Obviously I couldn't talk or direct the driver. So my assistant instructed the occupant of the car behind to 'follow that cab'. I believe the occupant was chattyman, I have no idea what happened next."
She also retweeted images of herself slumped over as she was carried out by two security guards and put into the back of a car. But some of her shocked followers criticised her for "glamourising" drug use by sharing the story.
