During his rounds to promote his first book Manhood on “The Wendy Williams Show,” actor Terry Crews made a shocking revelation.
While discussing his father’s battle with alcoholism and his mother’s intense religiosity, the Blended star revealed that he became addicted to porn at the tender age of 12-years-old. Crews went on to reveal that his pornography addiction nearly destroyed his marriage and took nearly five years to overcome.
“I’ve been addicted to pornography since I was 12-years-old. Let me tell you, it was funny because my father was addicted to alcohol and my mother was addicted to religion so what happened was I grew up in an addictive household. There were a lot of mixed messages, a lot of violence and abuse, so what I did was go to my uncle’s house [everyone has that uncle with a basement] and escaped by watching internet pornography.”
In a society thriving on self-exploitation and a “sex sells” mentality, Crew joins a growing list of A-list celebrities who admit that porn addiction is a very real and serious disorder which they have struggled to overcome. Hit the flip for all the deets. – ruthie hawkins/@ruubabie
