And allegedly, he’s 22 in his habits, too. Asked by an attendee if there was anything he wanted, Rourke had a single desire: “Blow.”
Well, on one hand: he was in The Smiths, so we’re just happy he’s rocking on. On the other: he was in The Smiths! Shouldn’t he have chosen a more, ahem, interesting drug?
