Sources in Hollywood tell CelebStoner that Luke Perry is the Beverly Hills 90210 star who now makes a living as a pot dealer.
New York Daily News "Gatecrasher" columnist Ben Widdicombe recently posed the following question:
'Which Beverly Hills 90210 alum is supplementing a moribund acting career with a thriving business as a pot dealer?"
It's true that the 40-year-old actor hasn't been particularly busy since 90210 ended in 2000 after 10 years on Fox. He appeared on the TV series Jeremiah from 2002-2004 and had roles in B-movies like Attention Shoppers, Fogbound and Dish Dogz.
Perry is best known for his rebellious, surfing and motorcycle-riding character Dylan McKay on 90210 that also starred Shannon Doherty, Jason Priestly, Jennie Garth and Tori Spelling.
FriendsofCannabis.com has reported that in Feb. 2001 Perry "enjoyed the delights of a marijuana cafe in
Amsterdam so much he had to be helped back to his hotel. The hunky American star had one cannabis joint too many...at famous coffee house The Greenhouse, and found himself incapable of talking - or moving. An observer says, 'Luke just sat on his chair in the corner of the room
and could hardly say another word.' The management of The Greenhouse
had to call the staff of the hotel where he was staying to come over
and pick him up."
Perry's also noted as a celebrity pot smoker in Craig X. Rubin's Hollyweed tell-all, 9021Grow.
Widdicombe has verified to CelebStoner that it is indeed Perry he was referring to.
