Motörhead frontman Lemmy has switched from whiskey to vodka

Lemmy, the grizzled perpetual badass who fronts metal icons Motörhead, has seen healthier days.

His band was forced to cancel a few shows earlier this year when the nearly 70-year-old rocker was stricken with gastric distress and dehydration, and he now walks with a the aid of a stick because “my legs are fucked.” He also suffers from diabetes, but he’s found an interesting way to combat the illness; instead of his usual Jack Daniels and coke, Lemmy has switched to vodka and orange juice in order to stay healthy.

“I like orange juice better,” he told The Guardian in a recent interview. “So, Coca-Cola can fuck off.”
