Brandon Flowers Will Never Drink Again
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Drunk, Features,
Brandon Flowers never wants to get drunk again. The Killers frontman - who is a practicing Mormon - doesn't really enjoy drinking alcohol and has no desire to get intoxicated in the future, despite booze being so prevalent in rock 'n' roll.
"I have been drunk. I haven't drank in five or six years. And I will probably never be drunk again," he said.
Brandon - who was born and lives in Las Vegas - also doesn't drink coffee as it's against the rules of Mormonism, which is a form of Christianity. "There's no doctrine about not drinking Coca-Cola. Coffee is still frowned upon. It's the caffeine. I think people become reliant on coffee. And that can't necessarily be a good thing," he said in an interview with The Guardian.
The 31-year-old musician - who has three children, Ammon, Gunner, and Henry, with his wife Tana - is strict with almost everything that he puts into his body and he has the same breakfast every day as he finds being in a routine comforting: "I have the same thing every day. I find it comforting. I have a banana, but I can never eat the whole banana. And I'll drink a couple of Actimels (healthy yogurt drink). And some kind of cereal with almond milk. And then after that I have a Coke."

Jennifer Aniston Dated a Mormon

Love knows no religious bounds for Jennifer Aniston, who once dated a Mormon.
The Love Happens actress finds the religion—an offshoot of Christianity which encourages men to have more than one wife—very interesting and was keen to get to know her religious former boyfriend better.
Jennifer, who was married to Brad Pitt and has since dated Vince Vaughn and John Mayer, said: “Mormons are fascinating… I dated a Mormon once.”
However, when she was told there would be “no sexy time” or “no vodka,” Jennifer changed her mind, saying, “Leave it at that.”
The former Friends star—who is rumored to be romancing her The Bounty co-star Gerard Butler—has also given potential suitors advice on what drink to buy her at the bar: “Vodka’s what I drink. That’s my drink of choice actually. It’s a clean, um, liquor, yes. You know, no sugar.”
Tom Hanks Clarifies Controversial Comment

During last week’s premiere of the HBO series Big Love, Tom Hanks had a few choice words for the Mormons of the world.
Hanks is one of the executive producers of Big Love, a scripted series which showcases a family of polygamists (who are also Mormon). TLC did the same thing, only theirs was a reality show - and never quite managed the success HBO’s project has found.
While at the premiere of the new season, Hands spoke out against “Prop-8,” which is properly called Proposition 8. This law was proposed in California - and passed - to ban same-sex marriage. The passing of the law stunned much of Hollywood, and many stars have spoken out against Prop-8 as a result. Even though the deal is done, they’re still talking. And so’s Hanks.
