During Thursday's wild NHL All-Star press conference, Michael Buble declared he was under the influence of mushrooms. He was warned that he could get cancelled for his admission but he laughed it off.

The 48-year-old singer, who is captain of the All-Star Game for the celebrities, looked incredibly happy as he greeted 53-year-old Will Arnett at Scotiabank Arena after the Player Draft.

However, he later admitted to being high on psychedelics. The celebrity suddenly added, "My buddy told me, this is just a microdose of mushrooms and he was lying."

He added, "so, I'll be honest, I thought I was in Blades of Glory for most of the time that I was out there, until it sort of settled down and then I realized, 'Holy s***, I am in the NHL All-Star Game.'"

The Just Haven't Met You Yet singer stated, "The mushroom talk cost me all my contracts, cost me a lot of income," after Arnett joked that the admission would ruin Buble's career.

This is not the first time the star talks about drugs so casually though. Back in 2009, he said he hates his squeaky clean image because it is really not him.

He said he loves to party and smoke marijuana, thus he detests the polished crooner image that his management put on him when he first started his career. The Canadian singer gained popularity performing love songs, and his breakout album "It's Time" in 2005 became a smash with housewives.
However, he acknowledges that beneath his charming onstage demeanor lurks a wild rock star.

The well-known Canadian celebrity, dubbed the King of Christmas, has admitted that he wants people to know the real him.

The Feeling Good singer has declared his desire to work in "movies and television," giving fans a chance to see "Mike" in place of Michael Bublé, who is known for his suits.

He said," Every night I go out and put on this suit and then when I walk out on stage I become the guy I always wanted to be. He's so cool, Teflon and says all the right things. I can be goofy but there's another."

"You're going to meet him. I'm going to make sure the whole world meets him. For 20 years I have done the same thing, it has been cyclical," he added.

"Michael writes and makes a great record and I go to 40 countries and promote it and then I go on tour for a year and a half," he also said. "I feel like I'm at this point in my life and my career where I want to do something different. Music will always be my happy place and my love but I need time to do some other stuff."

'Really it is about being that other guy - not the suit guy - being Mike. Whether that is in movies or television or whatever it is, it has to happen now.'

This follows Michael's admission that his son Noah's fight with liver cancer "reset" his life's objectives.
