Nick Jonas doesn't get high often but one of the few times he chose to partake, he ended up in an unfortunate situation! Nick says he once spontaneously chose to accept a THC-laced lollipop from a friend and things were going fine until the next morning. When Nick woke up, he said the world felt like it was in slow motion and he began hearing voices. Just a few hours later, Nick was set to present at the Young Hollywood Awards and on the car ride to the event, things took a turn for the worse.
"I get in the car, I'm trying to focus, get in the right mind frame, I'm feeling better, and then out of nowhere, I get a NARB ... A NARB is a no apparent reason boner. It's just there, I don't know what to do," he explained on "The Tonight Show."
Nick was forced to stand on the red carpet with his hands in front of his crotch and when he later took the stage, he told a joke that completely flopped. Fortunately, he's able to look back on the entire situation and laugh.
After experiencing hip pain due to a strenuous new workout routine, Billy Crystal headed to the doctor to make sure everything was okay. The doctor recommended an MRI, which didn't sit well with Billy, who is claustrophobic. To calm his nerves, he headed to the "senior section" at his local dispensary and ended up purchasing several edibles.
Billy ate the edibles before his appointment and ended up getting completely stoned in the MRI. He even attempted to stop the procedure several times to ask about food delivery to the hospital because of his munchies!
"Finally I nodded off so it was like 1968 all over again so it's like very cool for me...So, the guy takes me out and I walk out of the building and someone says, 'Sir, you're still in your gown, and your ass is hanging out.' I say, 'Oh geez.' So, I came back and I got dressed and I went to a Taco Bell and had a nacho fry box," Billy said on "The Tonight Show."

Chelsea explained that during the first few weeks people were in lockdown, she got high on weed, mushrooms, and some other unnamed substances. Things got to a point where one morning she was outside and thought she was talking to trees but was actually talking to her landscaper!
"The first couple of weeks I went a little crazy, but then I realized, 'Oh, this isn't ending anytime soon.' I only found out my landscaper liked to take mushrooms because I was taking them one morning and I was talking to what I thought were my trees in my backyard for 30 minutes until I realized it was my landscaper. And that's when I handed him some mushrooms and we just sat there all day in the pool and talked s---. And it was fun. You know, I got to know him," Chelsea said on Sirius XM's "Radio Andy."

Unfortunately, just as Ellen was about to retire for the night, she discovered her wife Portia de Rossi doubled over in pain and ended up having to rush her to the hospital.
"So, Chelsea Handler told me about these weed drinks, they're called Cann, and they have CBD or [THC]—I don't know what the good thing is. I drank one, and I didn't feel anything, so I drank three, and then I took two melatonin sleep pills. And I'm laying in bed, and I realize [Portia's] not in bed. She's moaning...So I rushed her to the emergency room...I kicked in, like my adrenaline, because I just had to rush her there. It's probably not safe," Ellen said on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."
Portia had to have an emergency appendectomy but thankfully made a full recovery.

I'm shaking, I'm hot, I'm just flipping out,'" Kirsten said on "Jimmy Kimmel Live."
