The reason you'll often see Majors carrying a little cup around with him at events is really sweet. During a February 2023 appearance on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert," the actor revealed he's been carrying the cups with him since he left his mother's house when he was 18. "She was so terrified of the circus that I had joined — showbiz and the circus," he explained. "She was very clear about safety. 'No drinking, no drugs, no sex,' every time I left the house . . . This has happened my entire life. But the drinking was a thing, and she'd always say, 'Baby, watch your cup. Watch your glass.' And I always kept that in mind, for safety, but also what that meant."
Since Majors's mother didn't give him an actual physical cup, he got his own and has four in rotation. "It means . . . You are a vessel. Nobody can fill you up, nobody can pour you out — you do that yourself," he shared.
