Celebrity Sobriety

Belinda Carlisle: ‘With sobriety came the confidence that this is really what I’m meant to be doing in life’

QUIT and STILL ON THE GO –

May 8, 2023 – Relocating to the French countryside ended up being a life-changing and ultimately life-saving decision for the troubled singer. “I threw myself into my French album [2007’s Voila], which really kept me sober,” she says, and this was “when I pretty much got over my food issues and my weight issues. It’s not about deprivation [in France]; it’s about celebration. And I really responded to that, because I was depriving myself in so many ways, actually, when I was working on the hamster wheel, as I call it. So, when I went there, it was like, ‘Wow, food isn’t a bad thing, and everything in moderation is OK.’ It ended up being a really healthy lifestyle where I didn’t feel I had to deprive myself and then I would binge afterwards. There was nothing that was taboo. We were there for 24 years, and the French can be difficult, as we all know, but the way they live and the way they celebrate life is something to aspire to, for sure.”
