Subcultural identity theory and Social Conflict theory are relevant in understanding ongoing drug use by entertainers and celebrities.
Subcultural identity theory best explains ongoing and continuous drug use by entertainers and celebrities despite adverse outcomes. This theory posits that individuals adopt drug use behaviors and attitudes as part of a subculture that promotes and glamorizes drug use. Celebrities may be influenced by peers and the larger drug culture, leading to continued drug use.
Social Conflict theory also sheds light on ongoing drug use in marginalized communities due to social inequality and the allure of drug markets as a source of income and escape from harsh realities. Selective interaction/socialization/reference groups play a role in reinforcing drug use patterns through social learning and normalization of drug use behaviors.
