Seth Rogen has only stopped smoking weed for 3 days in past 14 years due to seriously dark reason

The comedian, 42, revealed why he didn't touch the stuff while visiting Singapore

As every man and his dog is well aware, Seth Rogen absolutely loves weed.

He's been smoking joints 'all day, every single day' since he was around 20-years-old, explaining that he does so as it makes life 'more comfortable, more palatable and easier to process'.

And who can argue with that? Well, it seems that Singapore officials might, actually - as Rogen revealed that a short trip to the country forced him to put a stop to his daily habit for 72 hours or so.

And this is a guy who won't let anyone, or their opinions, stand in the way of him and a spliff - so it's pretty big stuff.

Especially when you consider that even the responsibility of writing, directing, executive producing and starring in his new AppleTV+ series The Studio didn't force Rogen to stop smoking.

He recently told LADbible Group that he stays a 'little stoned all the time', and has done for the last two decades - so those three days going without are etched firmly in his mind.

During a recent appearance on The Howard Stern Show, he revealed Singapore is the one place that he has been unable to partake in a bit of weed.

Recalling why he didn't fancy taking the chance on his 2011 trip to the Southeast Asian country, Rogen said: "They will literally f**king kill you if you smoke weed in that country.

"They put a little thing in your passport when you arrive, that says: 'If we find drugs on you, we will execute you'."

Singapore has notoriously strong drug laws, which also apply to cannabis, as it is illegal to consume both recreationally and for medicinal purposes.

Possession or consumption carries a maximum penalty of ten years in prison, a hefty fine - and even a caning. Those caught trafficking, importing or exporting the stuff may also face the death penalty.

So, you can understand why Rogen didn't want to play with fire - although he admitted he's often accidentally flown somewhere with weed paraphernalia on him.

The Pineapple Express star continued: "I can't tell you how many times I've flown places and then got there and opened a pocket or something and be like, 'Oh sh*t, there's a f**king roach in my pocket!'

"So that was a scary walk through the airport in Singapore."

Stern pointed out that the threat of execution is a 'good deterrent' against drug use, to which Rogen replied: "Getting killed is a good deterrent. If you ever have a drug problem, go to Singapore."

When asked whether he experienced any 'withdrawals' during his three days without weed, the actor explained he actually wasn't too phased...and anyway, he had other legal means of fun to rely on.

"I was okay," Rogen said. "There's plenty of other things to get f**ked up. Luckily you can just drink yourself into oblivion in Singapore. They don't give a sh*t about that!"
