Jenkins took drugs but didn't enjoy it, right?

Opera star Katherine Jenkins tells The Mail On Sunday she took drugs as a young woman but never enjoyed it, and has not since her 2003 record deal.

Opera star Katherine Jenkins has revealed that she took various drugs before coming famous but never enjoyed it because taking drugs isn't fun and makes your face scab up and fall off.

She told The Mail On Sunday: "I was young and silly and never thought about the consequences. I just liked going out with friends, getting drunk on too many Malibu and Cokes and then someone would produce some drugs and occasionally I would take some. I was hanging around with a bad crowd. I was very trusting and eager to please. I never enjoyed taking drugs, it made me fit in better".

She added that she certainly hasn't done any such things since signing her £1m record deal in 2003. She said: "I knew I had to stop taking drugs. I had been given this amazing opportunity and I couldn't let myself mess it all up".
