Måns Zelmerlöw admits for the first time that he has abused cocaine and tells that the relationship with Ciara Zelmerlöw ended during the Melodifestival week.

It was partly because of that I reacted so strongly after the final. It was chaos, he says in an interview with Göteborgs-Posten.

Zelmerlöw claims to have been against drugs his whole life.

But two years ago, it appeared in the tour bus. "Everyone else" did it. It's so common in my industry, so it became hard not to try. Despite knowing that I have an addictive personality, he says and states that he has now stopped using drugs.
