Anglo-Indian actor NAVEEN ANDREWS credits former SEX PISTOLS wild man STEVE JONES for his sobriety.
The LOST star admits years of heavy drinking had taken their toll on him when he first arrived in Los Angeles - and guitarist turned-DJ Jones helped him realise he was a closet alcoholic.
Andrews reveals, "Coming to America for the first time, especially LA… I started to question it, like, `Maybe I do have a problem.’ "When I first got here I met a guy who was the Sex Pistols guitarist, Steve Jones, at a party and I remember the evening going very well and I was getting drunker and drunker and he wouldn’t drink or smoke anything.
"He told me he was sober and I thought, `If he can do it, maybe I have a chance.’ "I don’t think I would have had any kind of future if I had continued to go that way and I certainly wouldn’t be able to be a parent or a human being."
