CARLISLE TURNS FROM BOOZE TO BUDDHISM
Former GO-GOs singer BELINDA CARLISLE has ditched her hard-partying ways to become a devout Buddhist.
The VACATION singer discovered the religion five years ago and now leads a much healthier, balanced life to the wild one she was famous for in the 1980s.
She tells Australian newspaper the Sydney Morning Herald, "I don’t smoke anymore, I don’t drink any more and I don’t do drugs any more. I am very much into my Buddhism.
"I found turning 40 a real passage in time for me. I found myself asking who was I, where had I been, what had I been doing.
"I was wondering about happiness and started reading a lot of books by the DALAI LAMA, and slowly embraced Buddhism.
"I grew up in a strict Christian family and (was) forced to go to church every Sunday and religion never clicked with me.
"I just felt that there was something else, but I never found it, but now I am certain I have."
