Posted June 21, 200718 yr Kelly Clarkson reveals bulimic past By ANI Thursday June 21, 02:14 PM Washington, June 21 (ANI): American idol winner Kelly Clarkson has revealed that she was bulimic during her high school days. In an interview to 'CosmoGirl!' in its August issue, the singer said that she suffered from the eating disorder after she tried to lose weight for a role in a play. "I thought...If I came back and I'm cuter and thinner...then I'll get the role," Us Weekly quoted Clarkson, as saying. However, one of Clarkson's guy pals discovered that she was bulimic, after which she 'snapped out' of it. "One of my guy friends caught on to it, and I just felt so ashamed and embarrassed. I literally went cold turkey and snapped out of it," she added. Since then, Clarkson has always strived to maintain a healthy body and she said that it is 'good for people to see normal'. "I've got a butt, I'm Greek- I can't help that. And I think it's good for people to see normal," she said. (ANI) :o wow. She's been through a lot so it seems. Thank god she's doing better now. SOURCE
June 21, 200718 yr It's quite old news, the story been circulating well over a year now I think. It's a sad thing to happen to anyone but with the pressures of life sometimes it can't be avoided. I understand the bulimic episode didn't last too long with Kelly, so thankfully didn't do lasting damage to her body. Edited June 21, 200718 yr by NatalieMT

June 21, 200718 yr ^^^ It's an old story. I wouldn't worry about it affecting album sales though, it's be more a concern for Kelly's health if anything. For example see this article saying basically the same thing from March 2006 - http://forum.kellyclarksonuk.com/viewtopic...ghlight=#126117
June 21, 200718 yr Yeah I don't think it's a story that's talked about a lot though so I'm not surprised not many have heard about it. Edited June 21, 200718 yr by NatalieMT
