Any other grown woman who stepped on the scale and weighed less than a 5th grader would have admitted to a problem long ago. It took Nicole Richie a long time, but she has finally faced the truth.
She told Vanity Fair magazine that she shudders at the thought of anybody trying to emulate her skinny look. She says, "I know I'm too thin right now, so I wouldn't want any young girl looking at me and saying, 'That's what I want to look like.'"
"I started seeing a nutritionist and a doctor," Nicole said. "I do recognize that I have a problem, and I want to be responsible and fix it, and I'm on that path right now."
Even Nicole's doctors aren't convinced she isn't anorexic. In the upcoming article, one of her doctors says, "If it's not anorexia, she should be able to gain the weight. If it ends up being anorexia, we can help her with that."
