Alice Cooper Interview
from Cat 81 Radio · host Cat 81 Radio
Pastor Greg Laurie sits down with rock icon Alice Cooper to trace his journey from shock-rock superstardom to a surrendered life in Christ. Cooper explains how the “Alice” persona was a theatrical villain—“Captain Hook” to everyone’s Peter Pan—while real life offstage spiraled into alcohol and drugs. At his lowest, doctors warned he had about a month to live, and he recalls terrifying moments like seeing “blood coming out of my eyes.” Returning to the faith of his youth, he says Jesus is “everything,” the only answer fame and excess couldn’t provide. Now long-sober, Cooper draws a clear line between the stage character and his Christian convictions, refuses to glamorize evil, and channels his influence into ministry work like Phoenix’s The Rock Teen Center to give kids hope and purpose. He closes by urging listeners: if the Lord is knocking, answer. Jaggy and I thank you for tuning in and SHARING!
