Jada reveals that she had a weakness when it came to brown liquor and wine. She would often drink wine like it was water, convincing herself it wasn’t bad because of the alleged benefits wine reportedly had.
“But drinking red wine for me was like drinking glasses of water,” she shared. “Because I’m used to that hard hit. I was drinking hard in high school, too, and when I got out here I was doing cocktails. So, ecstasy, alcohol, weed. Let me tell you, I was having myself a little ball.”
“I wasn’t doing things that I thought were addictive,” she shared. “But I would do those three together, that was my cocktail. Your threshold becomes so high, that what it takes for you to get to the place you need to get to, it’ll take me two bottles to get to … OK, if I do ecstasy, weed and alcohol at the same time I’m gonna get there faster and I can keep the high going.”
Per ETonline, Jada once threw up all over Debbie Allen’s house and realized enough was enough!
“I think back on my life, like, I am a walking miracle, no doubt about that,” Jada marveled. “People will not believe.”
