'Celeb Rehab' Star -- WEED Should Be Legal

One year after Eric Roberts completed a stint in "Celebrity Rehab" for weed "dependency," the actor is back on the pro-pot bandwagon ... releasing a new video in the hopes of legalizing the green stuff.

Back before he sought treatment last year, Eric's wife Eliza explained how the actor "quit drugs and alcohol in 1995" but still had an "interest in weed."

At the time, Eliza said, "He uses marijuana as a medication. He has a prescription ... however, a dependency is a dependency and he doesn't want to be dependent on it anymore."

Now, in a new video for TellDC.com, Eric is making the argument that if booze is legal, weed should be too ... saying, "Alcohol has destroyed whole civilizations whereas pot has only made a few hippies happy."

He adds, "Pot remains illegal because no one has figured out how to make it profitable for the government yet ... it's political, not protective."

So we gotta ask ...

Joe Jonas was recently in Paris shooting the music video for "Just in Love With You," from his solo debut Fast Life, due in October. He made his way around the City of Lights for the clip and told MTV News at the New Jersey Femme Fatale Tour stop that he always wanted to have the chance to film one of his videos in the European city.

"I think they didn't know what was going on, 'cause I didn't announce I was doing a video," he said of fan response to the upcoming clip. "I love Paris — it's one of my favorite cities — and so to shoot a video in Paris was a dream come true."

While he got to cross something off his bucket list, being on set wasn't as easy as he would have liked. "I was the only one who spoke English on the whole set," he recalled. "So many times I'm like, 'Are we going?' It was a lot of fun. I think fans are going to be shocked and excited to see the video."

The middle JoBro caught fans' attention when he was spotted getting romantic on the "Just in Love With You" set with a lovely French model. "She's really sweet," he said of his leading lady. "She lives in Paris. Her name's Angele. Really great, really nice. We were really comfortable with each other on camera."

The video will follow up Jonas' fiery clip for "See No More," but he said there was a time when it could have gone the other way around. "It's the right follow-up [because] for a while, it was between [the two for first single] and I struggled with which one to go with for a while," he said. "But I feel like 'See No More' is a good setup and 'Just in Love With You' is a fun-vibe song."

Are you excited for more music from Joe's solo debut? Let us know in the comments!

Robert Pattinson's Post-Teen Choice Party Night

Celebrating his surfboard sweep with a night on the town, Robert Pattinson hit up Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles, California after his 2011 Teen Choice Awards appearance on Sunday (August 7).

The 25-year-old Hollywood heartthrob ditched his suit jacket for the Tinseltown after-party, going for a super-casual look, wearing a ball cap, black t-shirt, and dark-colored pants as he entered the uber-trendy hot spot.

Robert, who decided not to walk the red carpet of the Gibson Amphitheatre, was among the evening's big winners - walking away with top honors in the Choice Vampire and Choice Movie Actor in the drama category.

Making for a shocking defeat, the "Twilight" clan was beat out for Choice Sci-Fi/Fantasy Movie one of the final installments of another blockbuster franchise, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 1."

Kris Jenner: I Want More Grandchildren!

Kris Jenner: I Want More Grandchildren!

Listen up, Kardashian sisters, your mom wants you to start making babies! Kris Jenner recently admitted that she's constantly on her older daughters to give her some more grandchildren. While daughter Kourtney Kardashian is currently the only one who has contributed (she has an adorable son, Mason, 20 months, with boyfriend Scott Disick), Jenner, 55, thinks it's time to up the little-one quotient.

"I would love more grandchildren," Jenner told Us Weekly. "Mason is the love of our lives, and he is so much fun, but there's only one Mason to go around. It would be nice if we had some more."

Kim Kardashian is set to wed Kris Humphries at the end of the month, and Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom have already been married for more than a year (and have been very vocal about wanting to expand their brood), so the pitter-patter of additional little feet may not be too far off. 

"I would love all of my children to experience having children on their own," Jenner says. "I think going through that process of being pregnant and giving birth, everybody should, if you can and you're blessed..."

The mom of six says, at the end of the day, family is the most important thing in her life, and she's looking forward to a future where she can "grow old and enjoy my grandchildren as much as I did my children when they were little."
