A Sappy ending

GOSPEL star Marvin Sapp has revealed that — in spite of his lifelong dedication to the church — he has a history with drugs and liquor. “After my mother and father got divorced I started smoking marijuana daily at the age of 12,” the preacher and singer told Page Six. “I started drinking and popping pills at the age of 16 and at 18 I snorted my first line of cocaine.” The singer said that in spite of singing in church, he went through some “major struggles” growing up, and “really rebelled” as a teen in Grand Rapids, Mich. Now the singer’s life story has been made into a movie, “Never Would Have Made It: The Marvin Sapp Story” on TV One.
