If Naomi Campbell used the drink in the 90s with her top model friends, the panther with the endless legs and the outbursts as famous as her line of liana no longer drinks alcohol for health reasons. “To be honest, there were times when I thought I wouldn’t survive. I had a lot of problems…including drinking too much, so I joined Alcoholics Anonymous to get and stay sober“, she confided to Vogue UK in 2010.

Blake Lively has never tried to stun herself with any drink. “It’s just something I really don’t want“, she confided to Allure in 2012. For singer Lana Del Rey, it’s a different story. She explained in 2012, in an interview for the English version of GQ, that she was fighting against her addiction for alcohol since his teenage years. “I got sober at the age of 20, with the desire to break into music”.
