Justin Moore Reveals That He’s Newly Sober During First Show Back From Rehab: “My Drinking Got Out Of Control”

“I’ve been wondering how I was going to handle this when I got back on stage for the first time in over a month, and I just decided to handle it this way about five minutes ago…

There was a lot of speculation, but my drinking got out of control. … I let down my band and my crew, and most importantly God and my family.”

Justin joked that he has another friend who struggled with the same problem who jokes that he’s allergic to alcohol because he would break out in handcuffs (you probably know who he’s referring to there), but said thankfully that never happened to him:

“I just became a complete dumbass.”

He then revealed that he’s newly sober after finishing up a stay in rehab:

“I just got out of rehab for 30 days. This is my 31st day sober.”

Justin says that he hopes to use the experience to be a better example to his kids and

“I’m a Christian. I’m not as good of one as I want to be. … God has given me so much, between my wife and our four awesome kids and my family, a career like this, so I’m trying from this point forward to use my platform even further than I ever have.”
