Musician John Legend has admitted that he is trying to lessen the amount of alcohol that he consumes.
Musician John Legend Reveals He Is ‘Trying To Drink Less’ Following His Wife Chrissy Teigen’s Sobriety
This admission comes on the back end of his wife, Chrissy Teigen, going on her own journey of sobriety. And given that she has spoken extensively about the benefits that she has received as a result, it is not surprising to hear that John is looking to do the same.
In an interview with People magazine, John said: “I’m definitely trying to drink less. There are times when I don’t drink at all, like I don’t really drink when I’m on tour so there are times where I go long stretches without drinking.
“And then even when I’m off tour, I try to do it in moderation.” Unlike Chrissy, however, John is not looking to give up alcohol for good. His wife had decided to cut it out totally, given that it became clear she could no longer handle her alcohol levels.
But for John, he is looking to do it on a basis of moderation. But he recognises that things can quickly get out of hand, which has made him even more careful.
He added: “She finds that it’s healthier and better for her to just not drink at all. For me, I feel like I can do it in moderation, but I’m also mindful.”
And by keeping his health in check, John expanded on how it has benefited his sleeping which has in turn contributed to his music success.
He added that during the process of his sleeping, he would often get the creative juices following which has resulted in him coming up with some musical melodies in his dreams.
And without having that strict structure in place, he would not be able to be on his game. His following comments confirmed as much: “It might be the ultimate self-care. I can’t sing if I don’t get enough sleep.”
If John can manage to control his alcohol levels for the benefit of his health and career, then that can only be a good thing. Time will tell whether he manages to do just that.
