In the first instalment of our Sober Celebrities series you might have started to suspect that living a teetotal lifestyle might not be all that bad. If you’re undecided on the matter however, here are just a few more well-known faces that you might not realise have chosen to abstain from alcohol:
1. Russell Brand
It certainly says a lot if you are so far past your addictions that you’re able to write a book to help others, which is the case for British comedian Russell Brand who released ‘Recovery: Freedom from our Addictions’ in 2017.

2. Naomi Campbell
Naomi Campbell doesn’t like to do things quite like her counterpart Kate Moss as it turns out that she doesn’t drink alcohol (giving it up some years ago) and admitting now that she is a lot happier as a result.

3. Bradley Cooper
Without giving too much away about his bad habits, Bradley Cooper simply said of his relationship with alcohol: “if I continued it, I was really going to sabotage my whole life.” Henceforth, he decided to cut it out of his life from age 29 onwards.

4. Jada Pinkett Smith
It is a little-known fact that Jada Pinkett Smith hasn’t touched alcohol since the 1990s, and we have to say she looks amazing for it.

5. Calvin Harris
Even though Calvin Harris must find himself constantly surrounded by it when he is DJing, he admitted in an interview with the BBC that alcohol makes him ill so he tends to steer clear of it.

6. Tyra Banks
Much luckier than some other celebrities on these lists, Tyra Banks has apparently never had an addictive personality and therefore never found any temptation from alcohol, which she only tried once when she was 12 years old.

7. Rob Lowe
We have to hand it to Rob Lowe, 25 years sober is quite an achievement and we’re guessing this has a lot to do with how well he’s kept his looks as the years have gone by.

8. Kristin Davis
It’s hard to imagine the embodiment of Sex and the City’s Charlotte having issues with alcohol. But Kristin Davis has been very honest about her struggles saying that for her, it came down to a choice between alcohol and acting. Thank goodness she chose acting.

9. Jim Carrey
Another celebrity to take the teetotal lifestyle very seriously is comedian Jim Carrey. He has been quoted as saying that he won’t even go as far as drinking coffee for fear of what it might lead to.

10. Kendrick Lamar
Contrary to what many of his song lyrics would have you believe, Kendrick Lamar grew up in an environment where he was exposed to substance abuse and has therefore become an advocate for sobriety.
