The Beatles' bassist teamed up with John Lennon to write some of the greatest songs of all time. Always referred to as the cute Beatle, Paul McCartney was also the stoniest Beatle.

He wrote "Got to Get You Into My Life" and "Let Me Roll It" about marijuana, and encouraged people to "smoke pot" on "I Am the Walrus."

McCartney has been arrested four times for marijuana possession, most famously in Japan in 1980 when he was nabbed with nearly a half pound of weed at Tokyo Airport and spent 10 days in jail. Hiis first wife Linda Eastman, who died of breast cancer in 1998, was arrested three times on pot charges.

McCartney has called for decriminalization of marijuana on many occasions. "People are smoking pot anyway," he says. "To make them criminals is wrong."

In 2008, McCartney divorced Heather Mills, who disapproved of his marijuana use. She received a $48 million settlement. He married Nancy Shevell on Oct. 9.

Born in 1942, McCartney turned 69 on June 18.
