Will Young was addicted to porn
British singer Will Young has revealed he pretty addicted to porn.
The openly gay singer told Style magazine he isn’t in the right emotional state to be in a relationship because he has been so unhappy, but couldn’t help himself from looking at x-rated videos online.
“Addictions can be anything. Last year I moved into my new house, my album went to number one and I was miserable. And it doesn’t even help when you have loads of money.
“I’d buy houses and get nothing from it. Bought cars – got nothing from it. I’ve gone out and spent £5,000 in Selfridges – and nothing. I don’t even wear the stuff. All those things I thought would bring me happiness, don’t.
“It never moved into sex addiction. For me, it was love addiction and fantasy. I was probably addicted to porn. Yeah, I have [the safe search browser now].
“But I’m always scared of commitment. I was basically traumatised in relationships. I’ve been single for five years. It’s five, I’ve got some serious s**t to sort out. There’s no way I could have a relationship.”
The ‘Jealousy’ hitmaker admits the last 12 months have been “horrendous” because he has been in the grips of depression.
“It’s been horrendous. I had to go – and wanted to go – on pills. My second time. The first time I wasn’t so aware.
“It got to the stage last year where I thought I was on top of work, that I’d find a boyfriend and everything would be all right. But something was going wrong.”
Will thinks his problems stem from the “shame” he has felt about being gay.
“What I’ve realised is that growing up knowing I was gay from a young age, I always felt extremely ashamed. It’s a cliche but it’s true.
“I’ve only just realised how s**t that’s made me feel about myself for a very, very long time.”
