Nicole Admits: “I’m too Thin”
Nicole Richie told the June 2007 issue of Vanity Fair that she knows she is too thin and needs to gain weight.
According to a recent article:
Nicole Richie, whose rail-thin frame has been a source of much discussion in the media, is now joining the chorus of voices saying that she is too skinny.
“I know I’m too thin right now, so I wouldn’t want any young girl looking at me and saying, ‘That’s what I want to look like,’ ” Richie tells Vanity Fair in its June issue. “I do know that they will, which is another reason I really do need to do something about it. I’m not happy with the way I look right now.”
Richie blames her severe weight loss on, in part, her December breakup with then-fiancé Adam “DJ AM” Goldstein. “I get really stressed out, and I do lose my appetite,” she says. (She and AM have been spotted together again recently.)
In an effort to put on a few pounds, Richie says she forced herself to eat – particularly high-calorie foods like burritos – but eventually sought professional help. “I started seeing a nutritionist and a doctor. I was scared that it could be something more serious.”
Admitting she has a problem and should not a be a role model is a great step for Nicole. She’s been getting a lot of attention for her unhealthy weight lately, and hopefully she’ll start taking steps in the right — and healthy — direction! Hopefully her new relationship with Joel Madden will help ease some of that stress as well!
