He said: 'So there's a few things I had to change to get past the first stages of depression. Three main things for me.

'I have a very addictive personality. One of them was alcohol. I was hitting the bottle hard. It runs in my family.

'So that was one thing I had to cut out, alcohol.

'The next thing was cannabis. You know I'm an actor, I've always had a puff here and there.

'You think 'it helps me create a character but actually it just makes you dopey as hell' so I had to quit the cannabis.

'And third and most importantly, I apologise because my mum might see this, but porn. I had to quit watching porn. It's for the devil.

'It ruins relationships. Those three things set me on a clear path.'

Writing alongside the video, he continued: 'Once my whole world was fragmented due to depression I realised a lot of things had crept into my being that did not support my dream.

'I take full responsibility for my addictions and now I'm back in control. It sounds obvious but NO BOOZE, NO DRUGS & NO PORN.

'All these changes gave my body and brain the time to actually deal with my problems rather than trying to numb out the pain which actually in the long run makes you so much worse. Hope this helps.

'See your reality for what it is and make the changes for your future. To infinity and beyond.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
