Via a Tough Tune, Marc Terenzi Whittles Down His Buddy List
- Marc Terenzi is disclosing his circle of acquaintances.
It takes a heavy storm to reveal the true friends in your life, they say. Such was the case for Marc Terenzi (46), a renowned musician and entertainer, who recently shared his heart-wrenching experience with the popular German tabloid, "Bild". His journey through rehab opened his eyes to an uncomfortable truth – most of the faces in his phone's contacts list weren't actual friends.
"I had a whopping 12,000 contacts," Marc confessed in the interview, "But when I was at my lowest, struggling in rehab, only six people bothered to reach out." Initially shocked, he now sees a silver lining: "It helped clear the clutter, reduced the stress, and exposed the ones who truly matter."
Numbers as Testimonies of True Friendships
In a passionate Instagram post, Marc previously opened up about the importance of distinguishing real friends from fake ones. He told his nearly 100,000 followers that cutting ties with the latter is tough but necessary, as it leaves more room for genuine connections. Marc's latest move is a testament to his commitment – he's swapped his old phone number for one that only true friends can access.
German singer Sarah Connor, his ex-wife and mother of two, might be one of the few remaining numbers on his list. Despite their separation, Sarah publicly supported Marc during his bid for recovery.
For Marc Terenzi, the phone-number purge is another step toward leaving his old, self-destructive habits behind. Last year, he spent several weeks in a Berlin-based rehab center, battling a years-long addiction to alcohol and drugs. "Sometimes I'd knock back two bottles of vodka a day," he admitted to "Bild" soon after his release.

I'm not going to be able to do this if I keep the old phone number with over 12,000 contacts, most of which weren't actual friends, as I've learned from my recent experience in rehabilitation. Sarah Connor, my ex-wife and mother of two, might still be one of the few remaining numbers on my list, considering her public support during my recovery. In the past, I struggled with addiction to alcohol and drugs, which led me to spend several weeks in a Berlin-based rehab center last year.
