Andy Dick details overdose incident, acknowledges using crack cocaine before collapsing on Hollywood stairs

Comedian Andy Dick has spoken out following an apparent overdose in Hollywood, detailing the events leading up to the incident and acknowledging that he used crack cocaine shortly beforehand. The 59-year-old actor discussed the situation from his Los Angeles home, where he appeared with two friends and responded to questions about his condition.

When asked whether he was doing well, Dick replied,

“Doesn’t it look like I’m 100 percent fine? 110 percent.”

He explained that he encountered an unfamiliar man on a Los Angeles sidewalk who appeared distressed, and the interaction led to drug use.

According to Dick, the man offered him crack cocaine during the conversation. Dick stated that he accepted the offer because he does not “mind doing a little crack every now and then.”

He further described the encounter, saying,

“There was a guy that was my age on the sidewalk and I felt for him, he had kids and he was depressed and he was on the sidewalk. And then he whipped out — sorry, but crack — and I’m like, you know what? I might need a little bit of that.”
