In an interview set to air tonight on CNN, Larry King asked Willie if he still smoked pot, and to the shock of exactly no one, Willie said yes. “I have a huge tolerance for it that maybe everyone doesn’t have.”
King followed up, did you smoke pot today? “Yeah,” Nelson said, causing King to twitch around in disbelief. “There’s pot in you right now?”
“Yeah. You can arrest me,” Willie cracked, offering his arms up for some imaginary handcuffs.

King asked Prejean why she agreed to strike a deal with the Pageant and drop her claims of libel, slander and religious discrimination. “Why settle since you had a fight to carry on?” King pressed. Prejean demurred. King asked again: “You can’t even say why you settled?”
Prejean, visibly displeased, refused to answer: “Larry, it’s completely confidential and you’re being inappropriate.”
The inappropriate issue at hand isn’t King’s probing question, but the alleged reason why Prejean settled: TMZ reported that she decided to strike a deal only after the lawyer for the Pageant revealed a home-made sex tape of a 17-year-old Prejean.
