Moss Criticised Over Skinny Comments
Model Kate Moss is facing criticism after being accused of making a comment which could be viewed as pro-anorexia.
The 35-year-old model, who is famous for her waif-like figure, gave an interview to afashion news web-site in which she apparently said that one of her mottos was: "Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels". She reportedly added: "That's one of them. You try and remember, but it never works."
The motto is reportedly widely used by anorexia and bulimia sufferers on web-sites.
The eating disorder charity Beat said that the model's comments were "dangerous" and "very helpful".
