AJ McLean “Dives Deep” into the details of his experience with alcoholism!
The singer burst onto the music scene as part of the popular 90s pop group Backstreet Boys, achieving fame at an early age.

Now sober, he spoke to Cheryl Burke on her show about how it affected him.
AJ McLean Gets Candid With ‘Deep Dive’ About His Struggle With Alcohol
The “Dancing With the Stars” pro dancer took to her Instagram story to announce her appearance on her talk show which can be found on her YouTube and Facebook channels. In the clip, Burke states that he just finished watching the final edit for the episode that will air the next day. The model said:
“This is going to be a great episode. It was recorded when my hair was really short, so it’s been a few years.”
Because of how long the recording was, he clarified some of the things that were said. In his words, “some of the things that were said, especially about belief in God, have changed. I believe in God a lot. Um, but this was about a few years ago, I would say.”
He explained that McLean was one of the first people they shot and was excited for everyone to see him. The star declared that the episode will help those dealing with addiction especially. In conclusion, he thanked him and asked his followers to stay glued to his story to “see a little teaser of what to expect tomorrow.”
One unique thing that stands out in his performance is that he not only talks to his guests but also engages in diamond painting activities. The four-second clip shows the pro dancer talking to the 45-year-old about how he had to cancel the tour. He confirmed by saying, “yes, while I was going to rehab.”
The final video is longer and focuses on the actor admitting, “My alcohol affects everyone in my life.” “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” guest star says that getting sober helps one realize what should be in your life and those who are there because of alcohol.
The “Teenage Wildlife” singer revealed that when he finally quit drinking for the first time, people immediately abandoned him and jumped ship. She added, “And I was like, ok, now I know, you answered that question for me. Now I know why you’re my friend. It’s because you know I can take you to clubs and parties.”
Burke then interjected and asked him, “So what made you stop? Like what made you decide like I’m done,” as the video ends.
He did a great job as a host, as fans will remember that it wasn’t long ago when the TV personality announced the project, which aired on January 10. The Blast shared that it came through a video montage of himself as a child to his current age.
In it, she gives a brief background on her early years and the trauma she experienced from seeing her parents divorce and being sexually abused, among other things. This caused him to drink excessively to numb the pain for over a decade.
In another post, she revealed how her obsession with diamond painting helped her through the COVID-19 pandemic and her divorce. She also announced that some of her celebrity friends will appear on the show as “Real Housewife” actress Teddi Mellencamp can be seen in a short clip calling her “the next Oprah.”

After going through some life-changing experiences last year, the TV star turned to something special that she loves to do and decided to share it with the audience. The Blast shared that the “I Can Do It” alum explained how his new project actually began while preparing for an interview on FOX news.
He expressed his excitement about the opportunity and revealed that the bright idea came during a shutdown while he was looking for something to keep him busy.
The entrepreneur later said, “the competitive dancer in me saw that rhinestones were involved, and it was love at first sight,” adding that she did it for a while before engaging her fitness via Instagram live.
Burke insists that the goal is not to complete the process but for the healing involved. He stated that it was important to be like that because he decided to focus on the present and not the end goal.
