Prince Harry party rumors spreading
August 29, 2012 - 1:25 am
A U.S. website on Tuesday reported that cocaine was present in Prince Harry's Wynn Las Vegas suite and that a video is being shopped of the widening royal-gone-wild scandal.
The Radaronline.com report comes two days after a source was quoted in this column as saying "something pretty gigantic" was about to emerge in the aftermath of Prince Harry's naked "strip billiards" photos 11 days ago.
Wynn Resorts spokesman Michael Weaver told the Review-Journal: "We talked about it, and we don't have a comment."
Prince Harry was not seen using cocaine or any other illegal drug, the source told Radaronline.com.
The source was not with the prince during the entire party, which took place after a day of partying that included stops at Wet Republic, the MGM Grand pool venue; SW Steakhouse at Wynn Las Vegas; and Surrender nightclub in Encore Beach Club.
The source said, "Some were already rolling on shrooms (hallucinogenic mushrooms) when they arrived at the party, and some were just high on weed. And that's exactly why no one there has come forward on the record. They don't want to be implicated for any illegal activities."
Radar, a sister publication of the National Enquirer, broke the infidelity scandals of Tiger Woods and former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards.
The posting on the website said it was not known whether the person with the video was the same person who sold photos to TMZ.com.

THE PUNCH LINE
"Madonna was walking around naked in London. I think America got the better end of the deal. The pictures of Prince Harry are everywhere. I admit when I saw them I was disgusted. They are so out of focus.'' - Craig Ferguson
