Actors You Wouldn't Believe Smoke In Real Life

The stats on smoking have been in for years — it's bad for pretty much every part of your body. With Hollywood being the home of the juice cleanse, and actors and actresses constantly sounding off on their healthy habits, it's still somewhat surprising that a number of them just can't kick the habit. 

Despite all that we know about smoking's toll on the body, some actors and actresses keep on puffing away. Check out who in Hollywood is still lighting up.

From the sounds of it, Keira Knightley's smoking habit started close to home. 

Female First UK revealed that the actress's mother encouraged her to pick up cigarettes, with Knightley saying, "My mother and I would always talk about sex. She'd come up to my room and have me roll cigarettes for her and then tell me I had to have one with her." She's been photographed smoking both while filming, and during downtime. 

It seems that child actors can be especially vulnerable to the trappings of fame, but Lord of the Rings actor Elijah Wood told Salon in 2015 that he doesn't have any vices; just smoking. "That's my greatest vice," he explained. 

However, Wood shared with The Black List in 2011 that, as a smoker, it really gets his gourd when people won't allow outside smoking, writing about his dislike for "Anti-smoking laws that now extend to outdoor spaces. Can we not let the use of free air be determined by the people using it? Should someone have a problem with roving smoke, they could simply ask the offending smoker if he or she would kindly refrain. Most spaces are smoke-free, and I accept that—particularly inside restaurants—but can smokers not have patios and general outdoor areas?"

Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe not only enjoys his cigarettes, but considers himself somewhat of a tobacco connoisseur. The Los Angeles Times reported that the actor told Esquire that he had to ship his rolling tobacco from England, explaining, "I have to ship this in from home because you can't get good rolling tobacco here. It's all dry and crappy like you've emptied out a cigarette."

According to an interview with The Sun, Radcliffe finds it funny to shock unsuspecting strangers with his unlikely habit, saying "I get a kick out of asking people for a light — I'm always losing lighters. They fumble in their pockets, look up and realise [sic] they've committed the crime of giving Harry Potter cancer."

Hilarious, we guess.

Not only does Game of Thrones actor Kit Harington smoke regularly, but his habit sparked some major show spoilers in 2015.

Harington was photographed hanging out and sharing a smoke with GOT cast members in Belfast, heightening the buzz around rumors that his recently-murdered character Jon Snow was in fact not dead. 

In the past few years, actress Katie Holmes has been regularly photographed smoking both off and on set. 

According to The National Enquirer (via Celebitchy), the actress has had a difficult time quitting due to stress (and with the crazy amount of attention around her split from Tom Cruise and her relationship with Jamie Foxx, we honestly kind of get it!).

During the 2017 Met Gala, despite NYC smoking laws, a number of celebs posted smoke break selfies from the museum's bathroom (prompting a bunch of media criticism for glamorizing the unhealthy habit). 50 Shades of Grey star Dakota Johnson was one of the stars who showed up on Rita Ora's snapchat enjoying a smoke.

It turns out that her habit goes way back; in 2006, her mom, actress Melanie Griffith, was spotted lighting up the then-17 year old's cigarette for her.
