    Talking Oscar De La Hoya's "shocking" confession




    No, there's no coming out of the closet drama here.

    But the Golden Boy recently dropped a rather hideous 'bombshell' (if you may) during an interview with Univision's Teresa Rodriguez.


    • He contemplated suicide, but didn’t have the courage to follow through.

    • He is an alcoholic who also began using cocaine in the last two years.

    • He was unfaithful to his wife, Millie, and the pair separated for a time.


    “My life was a big mess,” De La Hoya told Rodriguez. “Rock bottom was recently, within a couple of years. [Me] just thinking, ‘Is my life even worth it?’ I don’t have the strength, I don’t have the courage, to take my own life. But I was thinking about it. It got to that point.”

    Thankfully, it never got beyond it.

    However, why he chose to share all these revelations is not clear. It had to be extraordinarily difficult for his wife, Puerto Rican singer/actress Millie Corretjer, to relive those dark moments as her husband went on national television and shared his personal demons to the world.

    Addicts talk of their problems at meetings as a way of unburdening themselves and understanding the consequences of their actions. Acknowledging his problems and seeking treatment was the best thing he could ever have done. It’s just tough to see the collateral damage left in his wake as a result of his public admissions – particularly the pain that his family is enduring – but if the end result is a happy, healthy father and husband, it will have been worth the angst.

    De La Hoya said he used drugs and alcohol to fill something that was missing in his life. He was, by many accounts, one of the most successful men on the planet.

    He was rich beyond his wildest dreams; a young man who grew up in an impoverished part of Los Angeles with few material possessions had become worth millions upon millions of dollars. He owns powerful companies and sports teams and real estate and fancy cars and lavish homes and designer clothes. He’s married to a beautiful woman who bore him two beautiful children.

    “There were drugs,” he said. “My drug of choice was cocaine and alcohol. Cocaine was recent, in the last two years, last two and a half years. I depended more on the alcohol than the cocaine. It took me to a place where I felt safe. It took me to a place where I felt like … nobody could say anything to me. It took me to a place where I could just reach out and grab my mom [who died of cancer in 1991]. I was dependent on those drugs, those alcohols.”

    Golden Boy also admitted those photos of him wearing lingerie found all over the net are real, it's actually him!



    Q: Was it that famous photo in which you are wearing women's lingerie?

    Oscar De La Hoya: Exactly.

    Q: What happened with that? But also, was it you or was it fake?

    De La Hoya: Let me tell you, yes, it was me. I’m tired of lying, lying to people, lying to myself.

    Q: In that photo, Oscar, were you under the influence of alcohol and cocaine?

    De La Hoya: Alcohol and cocaine. Yes, both. Yes, and it was the first time I used it, and the drugs were not like alcohol. For me, I know I need alcohol more than drugs, and so, but got into very bad things.

    I thought the confession was---"I am Gay!!!" ..hehhehheh hindi pala. That picture sa taas, una tinaggi pa niya, so aminado na siya ngayon. Fumy pic para sa isang boxer.

    Ganon naman talaga ang confession pagka tapos na ng career mo look at Andre Agassi, syempre may career na iingatan. Pero magaling pa rin si Oscar, nag papatunay lang na he's still human.Okay lang yan lahat naman tayo may tinatagong secreto.
