Eating Disorders Gossip

As mottos go, "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels," a Kate Moss quote from her interview with Women's Wear Daily, would be a great one for bulimiaworld.com.

THG NOTE: We made that URL up. At least we haven't checked to see if it's real or not. But admit it, some of you girls were tempted to check it out ... or still are!

In any case, Kate has been assailed by eating disorder groups for her "dangerous" viewpoint, who say that philosophy is what drives girls to starve themselves.

"Comments like this make it even more difficult for young people struggling with an eating disorder," said Mary George, a rep of a British eating disorder charity, Beat.

"She doesn't realize how dangerous such comments can be."

Model Katie Green also considered her statement "shocking and irresponsible," especially because Moss herself has a seven-year-old daughter, Lila Grace.

Is Kate Moss pro-eating disorder?

She's got a point. When people search for Kate Moss nude, do they want to see her before or after her hard ass drug use and anti-food days? Think about it.

"Kate is a mother herself and how would parents with children suffering from eating disorders feel reading something like this?" said Green. "[Kate] should really have thought before she spoke like most of us do before giving interviews."

Kate Moss' modeling agency, Storm, said her words were misconstrued.

"This was part of a longer answer Kate gave during a wider-ranging interview, which has been taken out of context and completely misrepresented," the agency said. "For the record, Kate does not support this as a lifestyle choice."

She's even eating occasionally these days, sparking pregnancy rumors.

In an exclusive interview with WooMeTV, Stephanie Pratt of The Hills took a break from her busy schedule of being annoying and doing nothing to come clean to fans (which apparently she has) about her experience with the "master cleanse" diet.

We'd sum it up for you, but Stephanie, who recently opened up about battling bulimia on the cover of Us Weekly, is just so painful to listen to that we sort of tuned out 30 or 40 seconds in. Sorry. We can only endure so much punishment.

So check it out if you can tolerate her:

The Hills' Stephanie Pratt is opening up for the first time about hating her body and her terrifying, secret struggle with bulimia. Or so she claims.

Putting on the bikini for the cover of Us Weekly was tough, says the sister of Spencer Pratt, who says that she has been so embarrassed by her body that she hadn't worn a two-piece suit in front of anyone in "over a year."

"I'm proud of myself," says the size 0-2 Pratt of her celebrity magazine cover shoot. "I was super nervous going in, but I'm happy I did it."

That fat paycheck does feel good, doesn't it?

In the video below, which shows Stephanie Pratt in a bikini, she whines about bloggers calling her the fat girl on The Hills (not true), people hating her just because she's related to Spencer (not true) and lots of other crap.

Asher Roth, get your girlfriend under control!

Regarding his sister's alarming admission of an eating disorder and self-esteem issues, big brother Spencer Pratt said: "I love and support Stephanie. We all have our problems from time to time, but she's my sister and I'm always praying for her."

You knew it was going to take a Herculean effort from someone to end Jon and Kate Gosselin's reign of seven consecutive weeks on the cover of Us Weekly.

Turns out Stephanie Pratt was up to the task.

The Hills star and sister of Spencer Pratt opens up for the first time in the new issue of the celebrity news tabloid about hating her body and her terrifying secret struggle with bulimia - sparked, she says, by good old-fashioned peer pressure.

And because Stephanie Pratt is quasi-famous from a reality show (or at least a popular MTV show masquerading as reality), we know who said peers are.

The 5-foot-7 she-Pratt reveals she began the bulimic ritual - binge, then purge - after watching a Hills scene she shot with Lauren Conrad back in 2007:

"I was horrified. I remember saying, 'I can't believe how huge I look walking over to Lauren,'" she reflected on the agony of filming next to her pal LC.

She then asked co-star Audrina Patridge, "What looks better, 'shirt on or off?'"

Audrina's response: 'On.'"

That hurts. Says Stephanie Pratt, "The producers never put pressure on us to lose weight," but adds, "It's embarrassing working with skinny girls."

Hopefully Asher Roth can write a song or do something to comfort his girl.

So, is Lindsay Lohan eating anymore?

"I haven't changed my eating habits," she said at a post-Academy Awards party at the Montage Beverly Hills, where she was excited for Sean Penn's big win.

So, has Lindsay Lohan upped her gym routine?

"I go to yoga once a week, but I don't go more than that because I'm too lazy," Blohan said, adding that her recent weight loss is probably due to stress.

So, what is Lindsay Lohan stressing about?

"A lot of meetings for movies and stuff," apparently. While no new movie roles for the actress have been reported, she has a few non-cinematic projects in the works, including a self-tanning line for Sephora and a diamond jewelry line.

Lohan was quiet when asked what makes her relationship with Samanatha Ronson work, but clearly she's supportive of her girlfriend. She arrived with Sam, who was DJing the party, and hung by her most of the night, refusing a glass of champagne.

Word has it she also eschewed any and all appetizers.

If we've learned anything in two and a half years in this biz, it's that the celebrity news world is chock full of DUI arrests, plastic surgery and best of all, eating disorders. Stars binge and purge - or just starve themselves - like mad.

Well, we're happy to present a rare success story - a young celebrity who, in the not-so-distant past, was fast approaching refugee status, but who has since filled out to the point where she actually looks good in a bikini.

Take a look at the comparison of Nicole Richie now and 28 months ago (TMZ put this together). It's amazing what a steady relationship (with Joel Madden), a baby (Harlow) and eating regularly will do for a girl's figure. 

Keep up the good work, Nicole! And give Kate Bosworth a call ...

Nicole Richie bikini pics, then and now. We'll take the 12/08 model, thanks.

Step aside, Olsen Twins.

Take a hike, Kate Bosworth.

Don't even front, Shenae Grimes.

You food-eschewing stars can officially worship a new queen: Rachel Zoe. Bow down, bitches! Just try not to get too close. Her bones could shatter on contact.

And we thought the Rachel Zoe Project was just a crappy reality show. Apparently it's an ongoing effort to see how long a human can starve itself without dying.

Here's the victim rocking her signature look, which she dubs "Rig Cage Chic," at last night’s Cracked X-Mas event in L.A. Lookin' good, Rachel. Lookin' GOOD!

So Thanksgiving Day is tomorrow. Will Shenae Grimes sit this one out, if you know what we mean (we mean she's rumored to be an anorexic bitch)?

The Canadian actress says we shouldn't believe the hype, and she has a message for all the haters - ask her before believing what they read.

"Nobody has asked me about it. I really can't help what someone thinks of me because they are reading a paper and choosing to believe it," Grimes opened up to People in an interview, referencing her rumored eating disorder(s).

The 19-year-old Toronto native says the experience of moving to Los Angeles earlier this year parallels that of her 90210 character, Annie Wilson.

"It was huge culture shock," says Grimes, who became celebrity gossip fodder the minute she was cast in the CW remake of the 1990s FOX drama.

Along with her fellow female 90210 costars, Shenae Grimes has been slammed for being too thin, having eating disorders and being a huge bitch in general.

"It's so frustrating," 5-foot-3 Shenae Grimes says, noting that she does not have an eating disorder, but had a close friend struggle with one for years.

"Meet me in person and you can't say anything ... No bones sticking out. Just because people are calling you skinny doesn't mean I'm like, 'Yay!' No! You're telling me I don't look right. This is me. This is my body - I have accepted it."

EDITOR'S NOTE: Those look like ribs to us above. Just saying, Shenae.

As for being a diva and a party girl, she shrugs that off too.

"The hours I work, I can't be. These are stories written about everybody. Of course we're new girls on a hit show so we're plopped into little boxes. And people buy it. It makes me second guess anything I've ever read about anybody."

Hey, at least they only need one chair and are doing their part to conserve the world's food supply. We should be lauding these skinny celebrities as humanitarians.

Mary-Kate Olsen and Mischa Barton cozied up at the landmark Grand Opening of Atlantis, the Palm Resort, and the Palm Jumeirah in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.

She may not be ordering many burgers, but Mary-Kate finds new boyfriend Nate Lowman delicious. Mischa hasn't swallowed anything since her Cisco Adler daze.

Without a doubt, celebrity diets and weight loss work for some.

Other stars, though, have found that the best diet is none at all!

Having weathered the highs and lows of several eating disorders, actress Brittany Snow has sworn off dieting and personal trainers!

"I'm done. I canceled my trainer," Snow, 22, said over the weekend at Stride Gum's Longest Day of the Year party in West Hollywood.

"I refuse to do the whole diet or fitness thing anymore. I just go and have fun. I know what I like, what makes me feel good, and that's what I do."

Brittany Snow has had anorexia, exercise bulimia, depression, and body dysmorphic disorder as a teen - once falling to a Kate Bosworth-esque 85 pounds.

But the cute actress credits fellow star and friend Sophia Bush for helping to coach her on her body image issues and now is doing better!
