(ANI):
Rolling
Stone
guitarist
Keith
Richards
insists
that
young
people
should
refrain
from
using
drugs.
Richards,
himself
a
former
drug
addict,
admits
the
substance
is
'fascinating'
but
has
urged
kids
to
steer
clear
of
drug
abuse
because
'it
ain't
worth
it.'
"Lay
off
the
dope.
That's
my
advice
now
to
all
younger
members
who
are
into
this
kind
of
thing.
I
know
the
fascination
but
it
ain't
worth
it," Contactmusic
quoted
British
magazine
Uncut,
as
saying.
The
64-year-old
singer
even
gave
Amy
Winehouse
a
little
piece
of
advice
to
tackle
her
drug
addiction.
According
to
him,
the
troubled
singer
needs
to
get
her
act
together.
