The Weeknd had to cope with shyness

The Starboy singer recently opened up about how he went on stage drunk to cope with his shyness and anxiety.

The fact that Abél Tesfaye decided to use the name The Weeknd to maintain mysteriousness is now known.

The Starboy singer recently opened up about how he went on stage drunk to cope with his shyness and anxiety, it was reported on JustJared.com. “When it comes to performing and being that person, you need to be strict. I’m not up there lip-syncing. I don’t have back-up dancers or crazy sh*t going on. It’s about me and the microphone. I used to get on stage drunk (because) of nerves. You have to fight the nerves. That’s something I had to do and once I did, I feel like people are more nervous to see me than I am to see them,” he told Beats 1 in an interview.

He added, “I have a good team — a team that I grew up with. I feel like everybody loses who they are when they start cutting the people that made them who they are.”
