Annie Lennox officially considered neurodivergent after ADHD diagnosis
Annie Lennox is a renowned singer-songwriter who achieved global success as part of the music group Eurythmics in the 1980s. She recently joined presenter Nuala McGovern on BBC Radio 4’s show, “Woman’s Hour,” to shed light on her diagnosis.
The Daily Mail reported the interview and mentioned what Lennox said during the show. She claimed, “I’m a magpie, I observe things, I’m highly sensitive. And I found out that I actually am a bit neurodivergent.” Further, she confirmed having ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) and revealed that she was aware of how her “mind works.”
“It’s not an easy thing to live with, but it’s also a superpower. I think it does bring brilliance – I’m not saying that I am brilliant, but I’ll take that!” the philanthropist stated. She explained that she has always aspired to “brilliance” through various “mediums,” including music. Hence, the curiosity to achieve the goal has made her what she is today.
Lennox also spoke about how her first music group, The Tourists, disbanded. But she got lucky when a “new A&R man” took Eurythmics under his wing. “If it had not had worked I thought I would have to go back to Scotland,” she added.
During her chat with McGovern, the “Sweet Dreams” soloist further mentioned her time with fellow artist and English singer David Bowie. Reportedly, the duo was known for their “androgynous style.” She claimed they “lived to make music” and that those unique clothes “gave us an identity.” “I guess we all have a sense of style,” the celebrity concluded.
