Summary

Rock & Roll Legend Alice Cooper and his Wife Sheryl have lived with the high demand of traveling the world and experiencing celebrity for over 40 years! Many of those years were living in the rock & roll party world of (yes you guessed it.... Sex, Drugs, Rock & Roll).

Sheryl was trained in classic ballet and met Alice when she was 18 years old and selected to be in one of his shows. She barely knew about rock and roll at the time. She continued to dance with his tour for a year and then they married in 1976 in Mexico.

In 2011 Alice was inducted into rock and roll hall of fame and they are both proud of how they "married" classical broadway and rock together. They have 3 kids and live in Arizona. They now have a non-profit Solid Rock Teen Center, that serves inner-city teens in AZ. The Teen Center gives kids a safe place to gather, feel safe and explore their music talents when that would otherwise not be available.

Through all of those years this power couple has a strong relationship of love that all comes from a simple "Solid Rock" foundation of faith in God, which Alice says is what saved is life. 

 

In this episode you will get:

1) Their life experience of marriage, trust, faith and where commitment truly comes from. 

 

Quotes:

"Never waste a good crisis"
