Buble Changes Drink Habit After Damone Advice

MICHAEL BUBLE has vowed to dilute his alcoholic drinks on tour - after receiving some strong words of advice from veteran crooner VIC DAMONE.

The 81-year-old recently branded Buble “cocky” on stage, and insisted he was shocked to find the singer smoking and drinking “straight alcohol” after a show.

Damone told the Arizona Republic, “I told him, very nicely, that what he was doing was not going to do any good for his vocal chords. He just looked at me and said, ‘I know what I’m doing.’ Well, good luck to you. I was just trying to be helpful.”

But Buble insists he was not dismissive of Damone - and has promised to heed the singer’s advice.

He tells the New York Daily News, “If I was (rude), I feel badly. Vic’s voice was incredible, like butter. But I don’t know if he was an entertainer like I am. He was more about the music… From now on, I’ll always mix my alcohol with soda or orange juice.”
