Dominic Fike struggled with drugs since high school, and those bad habits continued as he rose to fame. Even after landing his life-changing role on “Euphoria,” Fike relied heavily on drugs. He told Apple Music, “I was a drug addict, and coming on to a show that’s, you know, mainly about drugs, is very difficult.” Sam Levinson, the show’s creator, attempted to get the “3 Nights” singer sober but didn’t appear to have much luck. It wasn’t until Fike made a change himself that things got better.
Starting his tour in 2023, Fike had a new sense of drive. He told Apple Music Live, “I had to get sober to do it [tour] as well. I showed up, and I was like — I think I was hungover and messed up, and I was so tired — everyone was like, ‘Dom, you ready to sing? And I was about to cry. I was like, ‘I don’t want to sing. F**k you guys.” Fike realized how many people were affected by his well-being and knew he had to shape up. Going into his 2023 tours, he decided to be the best version of himself, deciding he would not indulge in “cigarettes, sex, drugs, [or] alcohol.” It hasn’t been easy, but the musician has noticed a difference. He shared, “And that translated to this incredible live show we did at Coachella, and I’m riding off that high right now with that focus and that intention. That’s how I’m moving for the rest of my life.”
