Shawn Mendes Fans Are Freaking Out About His Love of Weed and It's Amazing
Mendes admitted that marijuana (which is legal in his hometown of Toronto) has been "really good for me," but many of his followers have condemned his pot use — or just declared the interview "fake."
Rolling stone did something similar to 5sos so I can't believe that so just calm down?!?!? I think Shawn will say something about this. This don't sound like him. And don't say that weed is okay weed is NOT okay. @ShawnMendes pls bby say something pls. pic.twitter.com/EYclIwx56q

The Shawn i know has got through everything, every hard situation, every dark moment, every anxious moments and with the help of his family and his friends. He doesn't need a weed to give him strength and to have control over his anxiety. He is stronger than that. @ShawnMendes

Mendes himself hasn't directly addressed the controversy, though he did tweet the Rolling Stone article along with the caption: "Of course I have my insecurities and struggles but that's just one part of me. Sometimes the positive side of a story doesn't always get fully told and I wish it had here."
