Kelly Clarkson Talks Body Image
The “Love So Soft” singer spoke to the British publication Attitude about how she wanted to kill herself because she was skinny.Clarkson gained stardom through the show “American Idol” when it was still in its heyday. However, the early 2000’s were a time when diversity in body shape was non- existent in Hollywood.
“I was miserable, like, inside and out, for four years of my life. But, no one cared, because aesthetically you make sense,” Clarkson told People.
The singer ran herself ragged to keep her slim figure, literally. “I thought the only way out was quitting. I, like, wrecked my knees and my feet because all I would do it put in headphones and run. I was at the gym all the time.”
As Clarkson gained confidence and learned to love herself, people began commenting on her weight gain and making nasty remarks. Back in 2015, Clarkson sat down with Ellen DeGeneres and addressed her haters. She simply stated, “We are who we are. Whatever size.”
The body positive mamma will be making two appearances at the iHeart Radio Jingle Ball concert series this December.
