Actress Amanda Seyfried wants marijuana legalised, insisting the drug has huge benefits if used responsibly.

The Mamma Mia! star does not smoke weed herself because she suffers from anxiety attacks, but she sees nothing wrong with responsible dope-smoking and is adamant it should be made legal around the world.

Asked if she uses the drug, Seyfried tells The Sunday Times Style magazine, "No, because I suffer from anxiety attacks, and you can't mix the two, so it's the worst thing ever. But I think it's a wonderful thing, and lots of people use it responsibly, and it should be legal. I don't understand how people can die all the time from alcohol poisoning, yet pot is so stigmatised."
