*Method Man, whose rap moniker and persona have always reflected his love fore marijuana, will now work with prosecutors to push the “say no to drugs” agenda to children. The former Wu-Tang Clan member, whose real name is Clifford Smith, has accepted the challenge as part of a plea deal for a marijuana possession charge stemming from an arrest in May. The former Wu-Tang Clan member will join the Brooklyn district attorney's office's Choices and Consequences program as his community service. Meth was pulled over by cops on May 17 after toll booth workers at the Battery Tunnel smelled marijuana smoke wafting from his 2005 Lincoln Navigator. Police searched the vehicle and found the illegal substance. "He's never been in trouble with the law before," the rapper's lawyer, Peter Frankel, told the New York Daily News. "This is a guy who flies in the face of all stereotypes about rappers." In other Meth news, he stars opposite an Olsen twin in the upcoming weed-themed movie, “The Wackness.” Mary-Kate Olsen, ironically coming off a turn in this season’s Showtime series “Weeds,” will play a dreadlocked pot head in the film, and just shot a scene in Washington Square Park where she bought bags of the sticky icky from a dealer played by Method Man.
