Thread: Sly Stallone charged with smuggling banned substances into Australia

A court in Australian court has charged actor Sylvester Stallone with the import of a banned growth hormone. The restricted performance hormone requires a special license in order to import it.

After going through customs last month in Australia to help promote his successful movie, "Rocky Balboa," Stallone was allegedly found to have 48 vials of the restricted hormone in the country. Police later raided his hotel room where the actor was staying.

If convicted Stallone could face a fine of up to A$110,000 (£44,714) and up to five years in jail.

Stallone did not show up in court to hear the charge levied against him. It has been reported that Stallone is in Thailand filming the fourth Rambo film.

Published reports in the media indicate that case will be adjourned until April 24th, when it is expected that Stallone's plea will be entered into the court.

The guy is 60 yr's old, and he has had to film anothe Rocky and Rambo movie within a year... Course he's going to be juicing in some form.. Just a bit odd he'd be carrying so much of the stuff himself I guess...

I remember seeing the an old biopic of Stallone and he revealed how he got into such an immaculate shape for Rocky 3 and all Sly said "Oh I went on the craziest high protein diet anything that had protein in it I was eating it".

He was just stopping on Australia. He was on his way to England to bring the ish to his contender buddy Manfredo. lol

I think Clubber Lang should mount a protest to get his defeat reversed.

clever. #131

"Stallone was officially charged with illegally importing performance and image enhancing drugs in a Sydney courtroom. The 60-year-old action star was caught at Sydney Airport with several vials of a steroid known as hGH (human growth hormone) during a random baggage check. Customs officials claim they found a total of 48 vials of the steroid after they raided Stallone’s Sydney hotel room, limousine and private jet. Stallone will be required to enter a plea on April 24. If found guilty, he faces a maximum fine of $22,000 American."


Now I tend to stay away from gossip for the most part, but after reading about this in the newspaper I couldn't help myself but grin as I'm thinking about it. In Rocky Balboa, Sly looked like a old bodybuilder, I mean it was obvious.

I don't know what Arnold told him, just tell them it's eating right and working hard. He all that money he could have gotten a prescription for growth hormone so he wouldn't have to fly under the radar, it would've saved him the embarassment. As Apollo Creed put it it sounds like a "monster movie."

"Human growth" Well everyone knew he wanted to be taller

lol, he couldn't find shoes that could make him tall enough.

indeed, funny shitt.

I can imagine the behind the scenes in the new Rocky boxset: "Rocky Balboa and Ivan Drago share the same needle!" Time to turn the other cheek now...
