It seems that the shimmering lights of Hollywood are not just about red carpets and Oscar parties anymore. In a twist that could rival any soap opera plotline, the investigation into the tragic death of Matthew Perry, beloved star of “Friends,” has linked a British-American woman dubbed the “Ketamine Queen” to the case. However, friends of this alleged illicit entrepreneur remain steadfast in their defense, proclaiming that nobody is forced into substance abuse. That’s comforting, isn’t it? A real Hallmark card moment.
As the story unfolds, five individuals have been rounded up, including medical professionals, Perry’s personal assistant, and, of course, Jasveen Sangha — the so-called “Ketamine Queen” who apparently catered to a clientele of celebrities and high rollers. Just last week, the U.S. Justice Department released details revealing that Sangha was intimately involved in the supply chain leading to Perry’s untimely demise in his hot tub oasis. Much like a bad reality show, the unfolding events include legal accusations of drug distribution that paint a troubling picture of drug-laden gatherings amidst the glitz of Tinseltown.
In what can only be described as an egregious display of privilege, Sangha’s friends responded to the allegations with a narrative that is simultaneously baffling and comical. One so-called friend characterized Sangha as “uplifting, bubbly, and spiritual.” Clearly, it takes a special kind of person to boost one’s spirits while allegedly distributing potentially deadly drugs. It seems that in their world, being “well turned out” in designer duds should absolve one of any moral culpability. Who knew that walking the red carpet could excuse years of drug trafficking?
The defense is weak, though. It doesn’t matter how many awards shows Sangha has attended with her “A-list” friends. What does matter are the charges she faces: maintaining a drug-involved premises, possessing and distributing narcotics, including ketamine and methamphetamine. It’s hard to reconcile those serious allegations with a description that should have her sweetly sipping herbal tea and meditating instead of running a drug operation out of her plush Hollywood crib.

The evidence seized from Sangha’s residence paints a grim picture. In the aftermath of Perry’s death, federal agents discovered a stash that many would only find on a drug lord’s wishlist. An array of drugs including pick-me-up orange pills, psilocybin mushrooms, and even fraudulent prescription meds were found in abundance. This is not exactly the inventory one would expect from a serene “spiritual” lifestyle. Conviction on these charges could land Sangha in the slammer for up to life — a fitting ending for someone so deeply entrenched in the underbelly of a place that routinely peddles escapism as entertainment.
It’s ironic that amidst the glitz of Hollywood, a grave reality lurks, where drugs are apparently exchanged as casually as movie scripts. As discussions around the nation’s drug crisis continue, it’s clear that anyone in the entertainment industry who dabbles in these vices should be prepared for their moment in the spotlight to come with consequences. Because in the end, make no mistake: nobody is forcing anyone to choose a life of crime — that’s purely a choice they make all on their own.
