“If I had a bad day, I’d just have a glass of wine; I’m going out, I’m stressed, I’d have some alcohol. Whatever it was, I’d just sort of use it to cope. It didn’t become this dangerous pattern, but it could have,” Janet revealed.

"There was a point in life when I was drinking, I only drank water on stage 24/7 during club gigs.

In a week I go to at least three clubs."
