Amidst the euphoric success that came with being the lead singer of girl group PussyCat Dolls, American Recording Artist, Actress and Television Personality, Nicole Scherzinger was ravaged by a secret battle with eating disorder bulimia.
‘I’m more accepting of my body now. I was always very critical of myself from a young age, and when I was 14, I started running,’ Nicole confessed.
‘I would go outside in the middle of the night and run, because I thought I had to be thinner and that my thighs should look a certain way.
‘When I got The Pussycat Dolls, it really amplified that because it had so much to do with showing your body off.’
‘A big part of that was during The Pussycat Dolls. I have a lot of fans and I never wanted to come out about it, because I was ashamed. But once I finally did come out about it, I realised how many people it had helped,’ she said.
Hope the battle is now over.
