Seth Rogen’s glassy look at the Paris Olympics went viral on Thursday as fans joked about him watching the women’s individual artistic gymnastics competition.
The Knocked Up star, 42, who previously revealed she “smokes weed all day, every day,” stared into the distance as she watched Simone Biles compete.
The star wore a blue baseball cap and shirt paired with glasses as he watched with a deadpan expression as the action unfolded.
Rogen’s look quickly sparked a reaction from fans on social media, with one writing: “Seth Rogen is so excited for these Olympics. He’s waiting for Mary Lou Retton to do her jump.”
Others wrote: “There’s no way Seth Rogen knows he’s in Paris,” “Did the edible hit @Sethrogen?” and “His gummies just kicked in.”
Seth Rogen’s glassy look at the Paris Olympics went viral on Thursday as fans joked that he was “high as a kite” watching the women’s individual gymnastics competition.
The Knocked Up star, 42, has previously revealed that she “smokes weed all day, every day”.
Another wrote: ‘The best moment of the broadcast is when they show Seth Rogen looking so excited and Laurie Hernandez starts crying because she’s so happy he’s there.’
In 2021, Rogen revealed his penchant for marijuana in a chat with Steven Bartlett on his podcast The Diary of a CEO.
He said, “Yeah, sure. I smoke weed all day, so I guess it would be worse if I didn’t.”
After Bartlett asked if Rogen actually meant “all day, every day,” the star replied, “Yeah, I’ve been smoking weed all day, every day, since I was maybe 20. And I’ve been very productive during that time.”
‘It just makes my journey through this life more comfortable, more bearable, easier to process, easier to manifest the things I want to do, exactly as I would be trying to do the same things in my life without shoes, without glasses or without a jacket.
“This is what it would be like for me to do it without smoking marijuana.”
He said he could “probably” live without marijuana, but it would be “more of a pain in the ass.”
He previously told British GQ magazine that he had smoked marijuana to relieve his obsessive-compulsive disorder and Tourette’s syndrome, which are low-level but more pronounced in his father.

Asked if he could live without the drug, he said: “It would be like saying I can’t wear clothes anymore. It would be a real pain. It would be very difficult for me to do what I need to do in the world.”
“The only stigma surrounding marijuana is that it affects the brain. And people are weird about it. They don’t like to talk about brain health.”
Currently, marijuana is legal for medical use in 38 states, including California, Nevada and Vermont, while 24 have also legalized the drug for recreational use.
Seth also confessed that between the ages of 13 and 23 he “drank as often as he could without derailing his life in any significant way,” but slowly began to question why he needed to drink so much.
Asked if he could live without the drug, he said: “It would be like saying I can’t wear clothes anymore. It would be a real pain. I would find it very difficult to do what I need to do in the world.”
He said: “Why do I get so drunk on this stuff and hate myself the next day? I think I realised I had been lied to about alcohol and that I had a place in society for the wrong reasons.”
‘Once I got more comfortable doing other drugs that were more stigmatized and not worrying about the harm in terms of other people’s perceptions of me, there was a point where I realized I just needed to feel comfortable doing a quarter pill of molly (MDMA) at this party and not drinking and having a much better time.
‘Either eat a little bit of mushrooms in this place or take a lollipop (with marijuana). The next day I don’t have a hangover. I don’t throw up. It’s much better for me… Seriously, it would be better to take a hit of acid than to drink.’
