Wiz Khalifa has been on a promo run these days to support his new album Kush + Orange Juice 2, and that first ingredient is very important to him. He's been one of hip-hop's biggest marijuana advocates for over a decade now, which means his tolerance and inclusion in his lifestyle is at true veteran status at this point.
As caught by Billboard, Wiz recently appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Friday (June 13) to chop it up with the late night talk shot host. During their conversation, he revealed that he apparently smokes about 30 joints every day.
"I have things to do. I work out, I got kids. So I do a lot of different things," Wiz Khalifa remarked concerning his smoking habits. "Somebody put it a really good way the other day. You smoke and then you just challenge yourself to do normal things throughout the day… I enjoy it."
Elsewhere, he explained how this "mental exercise" even became a habit in the first place when he was younger. "It was just for music purposes," the Pittsburgh MC stated. "Like, being in the studio and hanging around other musicians, it was just the thing to do. It kind of became something that, you know, later on in life helped me to get through a lot of things."
Funnily enough, Jimmy Kimmel also asked about Wiz Khalifa's flat Earth beliefs, and we'll let you uncover that conversation for yourself as a treat. Wiz also performed the Kush + Orange Juice 2 cut "5 Star" on the late night show.
Also, what's funny about Wiz Khalifa's rap status as a cannabis connoisseur is that he can tussle with the best of the best. In fact, it turns out that he was the one to smoke with Snoop Dogg's sons first before Tha Doggfather even got the chance.
Nevertheless, the 37-year-old wears many hats and has a lot to keep up with in life. His career, his family, his business endeavors... It can definitely be a lot. So we don't think Wiz will diminish his joint intake anytime soon, and we just hope he continues to enjoy responsibly.

Sir Elton John performed for his largest crowd since stepping away from touring in 2023, taking the stage at the 2025 Formula 1 Singapore Grand Prix.
The 78-year-old icon was in top form as he delivered a spectacular 90-minute performance at Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday (05.10.25), just after British Mercedes driver George Russell claimed victory.
Over 70,000 people filled The Padang stage area to enjoy a 16-song set packed with timeless favorites like Saturday Night’s Alright For Fighting, Bennie And The Jets, Tiny Dancer, Rocket Man, and I’m Still Standing.
It was Elton’s biggest live appearance since finishing his historic Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour two years earlier.
In the time since, Elton has faced challenges with his eyesight, but he refuses to let that slow him down.
The Your Song star, who ended his touring career to focus on family life with his husband David Furnish and their sons Zachary, 14, and Elijah, 12, suffered a serious eye infection last July that left him blind in his right eye and with limited sight in his left.
He told The Times in April, “It’s upsetting. You feel emotional, but you have to accept it because I’m fortunate to have the life I do. I still have my wonderful family, and I can still see a bit out of here [left eye], so you just tell yourself to carry on.”
Speaking earlier about his struggle with vision loss, Elton shared with The Guardian, “I’m always an optimist. My eyesight isn’t great right now. There are days when I feel down, but then I remind myself how lucky I am. I’ve gained a new admiration for people living with sight loss, but I’ve got a good life and hope my vision gets better. I’ve overcome addiction, health problems, and I always find a way to stand up and move forward.”
