Straight edge (or sXe) is a subculture and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aa.org\/\">Alcoholics Anonymous<\/a> subgenre of hardcore punk whose adherents refrain from using alcohol, tobacco, and other recreational drugs. While there are many famous people who don\u2019t drink alcohol there are many less celebrities who are completely straight edge.
