Facts
1)After high school, he spent his time wandering from city to city playing music in clubs and developing a quite nasty addiction to both alcohol and drugs. When he was held up by a drug fiend and realized he'd be ashamed to die at that moment, having done nothing with his life, he finally decided it was time to snap out of it. He got out of music, quit drinking and drugs, and started pursuing a career in acting and modeling instead.
