Shaun Ryder Turns His Back On Drug-Taking Past

Happy Mondays legend Shaun Ryder has attacked his drug-taking past and has now begun a fitness regime to kick start a healthier life style.

The 43-year-old singer claims he goes cycling in the Peak District and has even switched to lighter lagers to lose his beer belly.

He said: "I wouldn't go so far as to join a gym but I've taken up cycling where I live in the Peak District. ****ing lovely.

"And recently I've given up drinking Guinness because it's too fattening. Instead, I'm drinking lightweight lagers like Corona."

He even admitted to having corrective surgery to his teeth after ruining them through years of tobacco and heroin abuse. Ryder said: “I plucked up the courage to get my teeth sorted out. It cost a few bob.

"I had really good teeth until five years ago then the bottom ones started to go because they had tobacco or heroin stains on them.

"But Shane McGowan has never bothered getting his done and Johnny Rotten even went on ‘I'm a Celebrity’ with one tooth missing so it's not too bad a deal."

We’re not too sure what you’re going to do about those billions of brain cells you’ve destroyed though Shaun. Try fish maybe?
