Sober Stars
These straightedge stars are high on life!
The host of Red Table Talk has been open about her history with substance abuse, from growing up in a “war zone” of drug addiction and poverty to her own struggles with alcohol as an adult. She’s been sober for more than 20 years, but “those psychological patterns that once would make me drink… are creeping back in,” she said of quarantine. To combat the urge, she said she’s had
to “deepen my faith.”
Once the proud poster girl for pot, Cyrus shocked the world in June when she told
Variety podcast The Big Ticket that since a “big vocal surgery” in November 2019, she’s been “living a sober lifestyle because I really wanted to polish up my craft.” Which doesn’t mean it’s
easy. “Especially being
young,” she added, “there’s that stigma of ‘You’re no fun.’ It’s like, ‘Honey, you can call me a lot of things, but I know that I’m fun.’”
