Confessions

Ashlee Simpson's career may at times have resembled a roller coaster, but now the young pop star reveals that her personal life has been an equally rough ride.

When she was 11 and taking ballet classes, the 21-year-old Simpson tells Cosmopolitan magazine, she had a brush with anorexia.

"I was around a lot of girls with eating disorders, and I actually had a minor one myself," says Simpson, who at one point stood 5'2" but only weighed 70 lbs.

"My parents stepped in and made me eat," she goes on to say, adding that it was " about six months of not eating too much at all." The family support, she says, "really helped a lot." [source]

In spite of the fact that I don't follow this girl's career in the least, in a way it's cool that she admitted this. So many little girls look up to her and girls her age relate to her I'm sure it will have an impact. Perhaps knowing that she went through and survived something they are dealing with, will make them get help and have hope.
