Creed frontman Scott Stapp has made a frank and shocking confession in video on Facebook, claiming to be broke, living in a Holiday Inn and 'under attack'. Watch it below.
Speaking in a video titled 'Public Statement #1' on Facebook, former stadium-folling and million-selling rocker Stapp denies rumours that he is dead or on drugs, but apologised to his children for his prior alcoholism and added that his wife was trying to get him committed.
“Right now I’m living in a Holiday Inn, by the grace of God, because there’s been a couple of weeks I had to live in my truck,” he said." I had no money, not even for gas or food. I went two days without eating because I had no money and ended up in an emergency room.” The former rock star said that a personal audit revealed that money had been stolen and royalty payments had not come through.
“When someone can have all their money taken out of their bank account and no one’s held responsible, when someone can get targeted by the IRS because of a clerical error, when someone can get completely slandered and lies made up about them and post it all over the Internet and there’s no consequences for those people, there’s a problem. There’s definitely a problem. This is not the country that I grew up believing in. This is not the America that I want for my children and their future.”
Speaking of rumours of substance abuse, he added: “I’m sober as can be. Once the rumors started coming out I began getting blood and urine tests once a week just in case someone called me to the carpet on it, I can prove it.”
