STEVE-O TALKS PAST DRUG USE: Appearing on In Depth with Graham Bensinger, Jack**s alum Steve-O revealed the low-point in his drug addiction. “I’m in his house and over at the table where he would weigh out all of his drugs, there was a very noticeable residue of cocaine,” Steve-O claimed. “And so I went over to the table to scrape up a pile of cocaine to snort it. But as I had sat down looking at it … you could see, like, the little tiny little blood splatter on the residue.” He continued: “This is how just desperate and pathetic my addiction was that I sat there knowingly scraping up this tainted, like, blood cocaine. I sat there and snorted it, which is so f-ed up. I snorted the blood of an intravenous drug user.” Steve-O has now been sober for 10 years. He’s currently engaged to girlfriend Lux Wright.
