Nicole Richie has spoken out about the media interest in her figure and the accusations of anorexia that have plagued her since her weight dropped dramatically last year.
Richie, 24, appeared on the Tyra Banks Show in the US to scotch rumours that she had an eating problem by putting her weight loss down to stress: "A lot of people gain weight under stress and I lose it." She went on the talk about the intrusive press photographers who snap her every move: "I know the photographers are following me every day... they're looking for womething wrong and that doesn't feel good at all."
Richie also revealed that she has employed a nutritionist and stress-busting professionals to help her relax and put on some weight.
The show's host, model Tyra Banks was herself stunned by the press attention generated when the pair took to the streets in a shopping trip, prompting Nicole to add: "It feels like I'M being attacked." |
