There's a specialty paint out there, can't remember the brand name but its available at Totem.
You use a thick sponge roller to apply it. It's a messy job, stipple flies around a bit...make sure you have a good drop-cloth and move everything out of the room or mask it well.
Oh yeah, and wear some eye protection! Take it from me firsthand haha.
The paint is very hiding. I used it downstairs in a fixer-upper that we flipped a few years ago, there was water damage in the ceiling, past owners had smoked and the fireplace had left black soot on the ceiling. We fixed the water leak, patched the drywall and fixed the stipple with the popcorn ceiling, then painted over the whole works and it worked out really well.
