STALLONE DEFENDS HIMSELF OVER DRUG CONTROVERSY

SYLVESTER STALLONE insists the supplement which landed him in trouble with Australian customs in February (07) is one he needs to take regularly to repair damaged muscles and tendons.

The Rocky star was fined $2,450 (GBP1,225) last month (May07) after he was caught in possession of vials of a human growth hormone, which is an illegal substance in Australia, at Sydney Airport.

But he insists the banned growth hormone, Jintropin, is something he has to take on a regular basis - just to get through the day.

Stallone, 60, states, "I abused my body so much throughout my career that I am literally held together by glue. The stuff I took thickens the bones and reinforces the tendons."
