Ronnie Wood recently shared his newfound source of euphoria, which he now finds in healthier pursuits since leaving behind alcohol and drugs.

The iconic Rolling Stones member has swapped the wild rock star lifestyle for leisurely moments spent enjoying green juice and watching Netflix instead of hitting the party scene.

Speaking to The Sun, the 76-year-old said, "The natural high is the best one you can have; it exceeds drugs or alcohol."

"I like to have my green juices now, and I do workouts with my trainer, just light exercises and stretches to keep my circulation going, which is what you need when you're older. It's always a big party on the road but I like to have my quiet time. I'm addicted to Ripley"

Hackney Diamonds Tour

Starting their Hackney Diamonds Tour with a bang, the Rolling Stones debuted in Houston, Texas, following a long month of rehearsals in of Los Angeles.

During the creation of the Hackney Diamonds song "Bite My Head Off," Wood and his bandmates Mick Jagger and Keith Richards enlisted the talents of Paul McCartney for a helping hand.

In praise of Paul, Wood gushed about his exceptional support and valuable contributions to the band during rehearsals.

The musician has integrated his seven-year-old twin daughters, Alice and Gracie, and his wife Sally, 46, into the touring experience.

Special Appearances

Recent sources have indicated that Lady Gaga will join the Rolling Stones for an exceptional performance.

Following a leaked setlist, it has been confirmed that the band will showcase their hit track Sounds Of Heaven, featuring the A Star Is Born actress.

Reports from The Mirror suggest that fans successfully located the band's rehearsal space ahead of their highly anticipated tour.

Attending a sneak peek of rehearsals at a prominent Burbank, Los Angeles venue, attendees were thrilled to witness Lady Gaga and the Stones collaborating on a shared track. Speculation is now that Gaga may make a special appearance for a duet during their upcoming July performances in Los Angeles. During a recent interview, Mick shared the story behind their unexpected collaboration with the "Poker Face" hitmaker.

Jagger recounted how, during their time in Los Angeles, they found themselves in neighboring studios as Lady Gaga worked on her music.

She reportedly decided to drop by and say hello to them in a spur-of-the-moment decision and in a spontaneous turn of events, the singer found herself collaborating on the latest track, Sweet Sound of Heaven, after joining Jagger in an impromptu duet.

"It all started when she stood beside me, and our voices synced. She delivered it live, and later, we worked together to refine it," per Louder.
