Chynna Rogers was very open about struggling with drug abuse in 2016, and she didn’t hide going to rehab for treatment. “I did end up talking about it, because there are a lot more people dealing with this shit than you think, and they should know that someone who looks like me or does this could have the same problem as the fiend on the corner,” she said about her transparency to Pitchfork.
Tragically, exactly a year after leaving rehab, the “Selfie” singer’s mom died. “My mom would be really tight with me if I used her as an excuse to fall off,” Chynna said about her commitment to stay sober. “It’s just more reason to work and get all this shit done.”
Despite Chynna’s resilience, she expressed feeling weighed down with life at times. “If you’re not depressed right now, you might be getting high,” she admitted to the outlet. “Every day I wake up with new s**t to be mad about. It’s too much.”
Nicki Swift sends its condolences to Chynna’s loved ones and pays homage to all the other celebs we’ve lost in 2020.
