Eastern Cape-born singer Zahara bared her soul last night during an interview with Somizi Mhlongo-Motaung on his show Dinner At Somizi's, where she was a guest.
She addressed a number of issues, including her highly publicised alcohol problems.
"The problem wasn't the drinking, it was what was making me drink. In 2014/15, I used to cry myself to sleep because of what was happening in my life at the time," she said.

She said at some point when things were not going as planned, she wanted to head back home to East London but her mother talked her out of it.
Zahara, whose real name is Bulelwa Mtukutwana, told Somizi that after the debacle with TNS Records, she learned a lot about herself. She said she was becoming a savvy businesswoman who is going into logistics and various other businesses.
She also said she has an upcoming album, which will be announced soon.
