Taylor Swift Talks Candidly About Overcoming Struggle With Eating Disorder
Taylor Swift: Miss Americana,
which premiered at Sundance yesterday. Swift spoke for the first time in the film about overcoming her struggle with an eating order; she addressed her experience more fully toSwift said during a voiceover in the film that seeing photos of herself could trigger her to starve herself in the past.
“I didn’t know if I was going to feel comfortable with talking about body image and talking about the stuff I’ve gone through in terms of how unhealthy that’s been for me—my relationship with food and all that over the years,” she said. “But the way that Lana [Wilson, the film’s director] tells the story, it really makes sense. I’m not as articulate as I should be about this topic because there are so many people who could talk about it in a better way. But all I know is my own experience.
“I remember how, when I was 18, that was the first time I was on the cover of a magazine,” she continued. “And the headline was like ‘Pregnant at 18?’ And it was because I had worn something that made my lower stomach look not flat. So I just registered that as a punishment. And then I’d walk into a photo shoot and be in the dressing room and somebody who worked at a magazine would say, ‘Oh, wow, this is so amazing that you can fit into the sample sizes.
“I think I’ve never really wanted to talk about that before, and I’m pretty uncomfortable talking about it now,” she said.
