‘Euphoria’ star Angus Cloud reportedly sought by authorities in connection with hit-and-run in Los Angeles
Euphoria star Angus Cloud is reportedly being sought by authorities in connection with a hit-and-run in Los Angeles.Cloud, who plays drug dealer Fezco in the HBO drama, and another male were allegedly driving an SUV that rear-ended a Toyota in Marina Del Rey before driving away without stopping, according to TMZ.At least one passenger in the Toyota reportedly suffered injuries to her legs and arms and police sources claim that “while the Euphoria star is not officially a suspect in the case, his name has been floated for possible involvement,” and they would like to speak to him.The California Highway Patrol also told The LA Times that “at this time we’re only receiving information that they were describing the driver as an actor in Euphoria.”Officer Alec Pereyda added: “We cannot confirm or deny if it is Angus Cloud or not, but we do have information with people describing him as an actor in Euphoria.”Meanwhile, Cloud previously told NME that fame and having people recognise him on the street is still a “strange” new thing he’s trying to get used to.“It’s surreal, everybody knows me [now]. It’s weird,” he added.Elsewhere, Zendaya recently picked up the award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for Euphoria, marking the second time she has won the accolade for her portrayal of Rue Bennett on the hit HBO series.She previously took home the same award in 2020, becoming the first Black woman to win the Emmy for lead actress in a drama twice.

‘Euphoria’ sparks rise in young people seeking help for addiction
Euphoria has led to a rise in young people seeking help for addiction problems, according to the UK Addiction Treatment Group (UKAT).The HBO series wrapped up its second season last night (February 27), and throughout its run one of the main themes has been drug addiction, particularly shown through the perspective of Rue Bennett (Zendaya).According to UKAT’s head consultant, since the show was released there has been a small rise in young people seeking help for addiction.“What shows like Euphoria do is to raise the awareness of young people and children experiencing and in some cases, struggling with mature life situations like drug misuse,” Nuno Albuquerque told Metro.co.uk.“Thankfully there has been a very small rise in the number of young people getting in touch with our support services asking for help and guidance.”He added: “It’s naive of society to believe that our younger generation don’t use and abuse substances, or to think that we can always protect them. If shows like Euphoria manage to encourage even one young person to reach out and ask for help, then that’s wonderful.”Despite the increase, the US Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) previously criticised Euphoria‘s portrayal of teen drug use, claiming it chose to “misguidedly glorify and erroneously depict” such aspects.Zendaya subsequently defended the series, telling Entertainment Weekly: “Our show is in no way a moral tale to teach people how to live their life or what they should be doing.“If anything, the feeling behind Euphoria, or whatever we have always been trying to do with it, is to hopefully help people feel a little bit less alone in their experience and their pain.
