J-Lo... Not necessarily a rock star but still. She has never drank. She looks great at fortysomething (amazing!) so definitely an inspiration for me.

The way I drank and partied I always thought I got into the wrong industry; I should have been musician! My recovery story would be much interesting to people lol. I swear people in finance party like their rock stars without the fame.

I dunno about Scott Weiland, that dudes something else. He did a show not to long ago and it got horrible reviews and fans wanted there money back. He couldn't remember the words to the songs. His history, just sayin....

Tom Waits- sober for 23 years. That's saying a lot, since alcohol was a large part of his persona during the 70's.

Midge Ure- from Ultravox and of Band Aid fame, who stated in his biography'

''I found myself in a very dark place, I couldn't live seeing the world clearly, I couldn't focus on anything without a drink. I thought drink would help me deal with my problems, but it made things ten times worse. I was hiding from the truth, living in a fantasy land, not wanting to do anything''.

''I can't promise never to drink again, I take it one step at a time, and I can't promise that it will all be great from now on. All I have is one day at a time. I didn't drink yesterday, I won't drink today and I'll try not to drink tomorrow. ''

Think he's been sober over 12 years now, inspiring....
