Singer Rihanna was photographed on Sunday smoking what appeared to be marijuana in the form of a blunt while vacationing in Hawaii, reported the Huffington Post As if the 23 year old star anticipated this question, she took to twitter to leave a clue: "Kush rolled, glass full...I prefer the better things!" she tweeted, quoting lyrics from Drake's "Up All Night." According to MTV.com her ardent fans had no doubt as to what she was smoking. They took to Twitter responding with their support in tweets like: " I wanna smoke a blunt wit @rihanna", “lol she is so high ! love that girl” and "Island gal for real!!!!"Outside twitter, many praised her for choosing a "healthier" alternativ­e. “Alcohol. There's a drug that's actually killing people when abused," one commenter said. "How horrible it would be for her to be smoking tobacco. That stuff kills millions."“Hey, maybe she's got glaucoma or something,” one commenter said . Or maybe Rihanna is a Ron Paul supporter , said another This isn't the first time the "We Found Love" singer has been in the news for smoking pot.In June 2010, Rihanna was allegedly banned from a luxurious Barbados hotel after she was caught smoking Marijuana in her hotel room.Mediatakeout.com posted a short article from an unnamed Barbados newspaper , " . . . It appears that the classy woman and her guests smoke, drank and partied nonstop in the room. Security had to be constantly knocking on the door because the smoke alarm would not stop going off . . ."This latest photo only gives fuel to The National Enquirer that reported that her loved ones want her to go to rehab. “Her friends and family have been warning her that if she doesn’t seek help, she’ll wind up dead like Amy Winehouse,” the gossip newpaper reports The “Rehab” singer was just 27 when she died of accidental alcohol poisoning in July 2011.“I’m no Amy,” a 19 year old Rihanna tells the Mirror in an interview “Amy clearly has a problem and it’s very difficult to get over,” she says. “And I should know."She's right. Rihanna, who was the eldest of three children, grew up in Barbados watching her mother get physically abused by her father; a father who was also addicted to crack cocaine.“I’ve seen up close what effect those things can have--I would never want to put myself in that situation--It would be very careless and just not smart at all,” she told The Guardian in 2009 But doing drugs has nothing to do with smarts, experts say. New research has found that drug addiction is a type of self-treatment of concealed pain that occurred in childhood often unaware to the addict.The 19 year old Rihanna empathized with Ms.Winehouse: “I pray that she gets better soon as she’s a real star and beneath the surface I bet she’s hurting," the Mirror reported.Said Rihanna: “She’s under a lot of pressure – but she’ll beat it I’m sure.”
