In the new interview, Harry Styles talks about how he ate magic mushrooms mixed with chocolate. Psychedelic drugs became a part of his creative process as a musician.

"We'd do mushrooms, lie down on the grass, and listen to Paul McCartney's Ram in the sunshine. We'd just turn the speakers into the yard," Styles said, while speaking to Rolling Stone. He added that after doing the 'shrooms, he got so high that he bit off the tip of his tongue.

"So I was trying to sing with all this blood gushing out of my mouth. So many fond memories, this place," the singer revealed.
