Alice Cooper<\/a> is able to continue rocking well into his 70s because he’s been “happily married for 50 years”.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Alice Cooper thinks his happy marriage has kept him feeling young<\/p>\n
The 77-year-old rock veteran believes his lengthy relationship with his wife Sheryl – who he married in 1976 – as well as his healthy lifestyle has helped him survive fame and allowed him to keep making music and touring as he approaches his 80th birthday.<\/p>\n
He told The Times newspaper: “I am still touring full blast at the age of 77 like I always have. Although none of us thought [at the start] that we would even get past 30 years of age.<\/p>\n
“But I haven\u2019t had a drink in 42 years, I\u2019m not taking any drugs, I never smoked cigarettes and a lot of this has to do with being happily married for 50 years and having a great family where everybody has married the right people.”<\/p>\n
Alice – real name Vincent Furnier – is heading out on a 100-date tour this year and he is happy to be able to bring Sheryl out on the road with him.<\/p>\n
\nHe added: “One thing that is really good is that my wife is in the show. So when I go on tour I don\u2019t have to leave home; I bring home with me.”<\/p>\n
\nThe rocker went on to add: “Everybody asks what keeps you going and everybody expects at 77 for Alice to get up there and phone it in because he\u2019s not able to move around very much.<\/p>\n
\n“And hey, Mick Jagger is four years older than me and he is still killing it up there. I am defiant about this: I want Alice to get up there and when they get in I want them to say: \u2018Are you kidding me? He can\u2019t be 77\u2019.<\/p>\n
\n“That is what drives me forward. If I can\u2019t play Alice the same way I played Alice 40 years ago I shouldn\u2019t be up there. But I don\u2019t think Alice Cooper is done having his day yet.”<\/p>\n
\nA well as heading out on tour this year, the musician is also reuniting The Alice Cooper Band for their first album in 50 years. <\/p>\n
\nThe follow-up to 1973’s ‘Muscle of Love’ is entitled ‘The Revenge of Alice Cooper’ and will land on July 25.<\/p>\n
