‘Miami Vice' star Don Johnson admits to smoking weed in White House during Carter administration
Don Johnson pulled the curtain back on some wild visits to the White House. Johnson, 75, claimed he once smoked a joint at the White House, and got former President George H.W. Bush to gamble on a game of golf. During an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!,' host Jimmy Kimmel showed the actor a photo from 1975 featuring Johnson with President Jimmy Carter and musicians Chuck Leavell and Dickey Betts taken at an Allman Brothers concert. 'I don't remember that photo, but we were all stoned,' Johnson admitted. He clarified that Carter was likely not stoned. 'Well, I don't know about him,' Johnson said. 'I don't want to cast any aspersions on the former president. God rest his soul.' Johnson landed his invite to the White House after working with the Allman Brothers on a concert for Carter's presidential campaign in 1976. 'Then the fun began,' he told Kimmel. 4 Don Johnson appears on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' on June 4, 2025. The late-night show host questioned what kind of fun they had at the White House. 'Nobody has fun at the White House,' Kimmel said before adding, 'I have heard Willie Nelson had fun there.' 'Is that the kind of fun you had there?' he asked Johnson. 'Did you smoke at the White House?' The 'Miami Vice' star seemingly struggled to answer. 'I don't know how to answer this. Well, yes… I guess I did,' admitted Johnson. According to the veteran actor, he's visited the White House during each president's administration since Carter. Johnson continued to tell Kimmel about his escapades, including a time he played a round of golf with Bush. 'He wanted to gamble when we played golf out at Camp David,' Johnson said. 'And so I took his money,' he recalled to laughter and applause from the audience. 4 A photo from 1975 featuring Johnson with President Jimmy Carter and musicians Chuck Leavell and Dickey Betts taken at an Allman Brothers concert. 4 Don Johnson and Patti D'Arbanville attend a state dinner at the White House in Washington, DC, on Sept. 10, 1985. Penske Media via Getty Images 'I'll tell you something else: He's a trash talker, and he ran into a buzzsaw, because so am I.' When questioned about how much Bush bet, Johnson said 'it wasn't that much.' 'Eighteen or 20 bucks,' he told Kimmel, adding, 'But that's the best 18 or 20 bucks you'll ever get.' Johnson isn't the first celebrity to share wild stories from the White House. Country legend Willie Nelson originally claimed he smoked weed with someone in Carter's administration during his infamous trip to the White House. However, Carter later clarified that Nelson actually smoked with his son, James Earl 'Chip' Carter III. 4 According to the veteran actor, he's visited the White House during each president's administration since Carter. 'When Willie Nelson wrote his autobiography, he confessed that he smoked pot in the White House one night when he was spending the night with me,' Carter said in the 2020 documentary, 'Jimmy Carter: Rock & Roll President.' 'And he says that his companion that shared the pot with him was one of the servants in the White House. 'That is not exactly true — it actually was one of my sons, which he didn't want to categorize as a pot-smoker like him.'

Don Johnson Dishes On Time He Smoked Weed At The White House... And Who Was In Office
Don Johnson has really made himself at home in the White House. During an appearance on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' on Wednesday, the 'Miami Vice' star revealed that he's been to the Washington D.C. manor during every administration since Jimmy Carter was in office... and that he's even gotten into some hijinks there. The topic came up when Kimmel asked Johnson about his extensive social circle, pulling out a 1975 photo of the actor with Carter and Allman Brothers bandmates Chuck Leavell and Dickey Betts. Asked for some context for the snapshot, where Betts definitely appeared to be smoking something, Johnson had to admit, 'I don't remember that photo, but we were all stoned.' Quickly realizing he may have unintentionally defamed Carter, he corrected himself and said, 'Well, I don't know about him. I don't want to cast any aspersions on the former president. God rest his soul.' Johnson then explained how he was invited to the White House after helping the band set up a concert to support the Democrat's first presidential campaign. Kimmel seemed baffled when the 'Nash Bridges' actor told him that the 'fun' really began while Carter was hosting. 'Nobody has fun there, do they?' he said, before remembering a rumor about Willie Nelson toking it up at the presidential estate. 'Is that the kind of fun you had there?' Kimmel wondered. 'Did you smoke at the White House?' Playfully grimacing and throwing up his hands for a moment, Johnson confessed, 'I don't know how to answer this... Well, yes, I guess I did.' As the audience erupted in applause, the actor said he's been a repeat visitor at the White House and even shared some good times with President George H.W. Bush. Though Johnson made it clear that Bush didn't partake in any of the devil's lettuce, he did reveal the Republican had another weakness. 'He wanted to gamble when we played golf out at Camp David. And so, I took his money,' he smirked. 'I'll tell you something else: He's a trash talker, and he ran into a buzzsaw 'cause so am I.' While Johnson has been chummy with more than a few presidents, back during a 2019 appearance on Kimmel, he told the late night host he wasn't on the best terms with President Donald Trump. Apparently, back in the '80s, the then-real estate mogul made a deal with Johnson to put the name of his Atlantic City hotel 'Trump Castle' on one of the star's racing boats — but Trump didn't keep his end of the deal. 'I took the sponsorship money, he made me make his name bigger, and then he stiffed me on the money,' Johnson dished.
