Thandie Newton reveals she suffered from bulimia

Hi and welcome to Celebrity Body Gossip! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Thandie Newton is the latest celebrity who admitted having suffered from an eating disorder. The 34-year-old actress recently revealed she suffered from bulimia.

“I had terrible bulimia for about a year. I’ve still got the scars on my knuckles from where I put my fingers down my throat.”

Thandie says her obsession started when she was 14, as she was training for her ballet exams and eating “nothing but cottage cheese”. After a series of abusive relationships, her eating disorder got worse.


“I’d been involved with this guy for a long time, he was much older than me and I felt a lot of shame about my sexual relationship with him. I would have these dinners with him and then go back to the flat and I’d throw up. Then I went out with someone who was emotionally abusive, criticizing me the whole time.”

Eventually Newton sought help while in Los Angeles to shoot a film. “I saw a therapist for the first time,” she says. “After that first session, I never threw up again. I had made the connection between shame and self abuse.” [Source]

Here are some older photos of Thandie Newton. I don’t know how she’s looking these days (she says she has fully recovered), but in these pictures she is so skinny!

Lindsay Lohan stole clothes from Louis Vuitton

Lindsay Lohan is in the September 2007 issue of Elle magazine. In the interview, given just 36 hours before her Memorial Day DUI, she said she would never drink and drive.

But what’s more shocking about Lindsay’s Elle photoshoot is that she apparently stole some clothes from Louis Vuitton:

Louis Vuitton had sent over some samples for her to wear in the shoot,” said a snitch. “Lindsay kept shoving the clothes into her bag, and a stylist’s assistant kept getting them out of the bag, only to have Lindsay keep trying to take them. She ended up walking off with a very expensive shirt and some other items - which screwed Louis Vuitton because they were set to go to Vogue, W and Harper’s Bazaar for other shoots. They were furious and kept trying to get their clothes back, but . . . Lindsay walked out with them and never returned calls.” [Source]

This is the second time Lindsay is accused of stealing clothes (back in April there was a report that she stole $10,000 worth of clothes from a friend’s house).



Here’s a video of Lindsay Lohan talking about her fashion style:

Here are some highlights from Lindsay’s Elle magazine interview:

On attending rehab at Wonderland before her 21st birthday:
“I was growing up and going out a lot, and I needed to have a balance. I was glad I went, because I needed to get away from everyone and I didn’t know how to do that. And I learned a lot there. A bunch of my friends – I was with them last night – they’re in AA for, like, years.”On former fling Calum Best:
“I like him. He’s me in male form. We’re very similar. Stubborn, rebellious, very smart, coy, a little bit narcissistic – I think all actors have a little bit of that, and so they should. We’ll be kidding around, like the other day when we were in the Bahamas … I was walking by some mirror. And he caught me looking in the mirror and he goes, ‘I caught that!’ I was like, ‘Damn, I look good!’

On the media firestorm surrounding her:
“I feel like the asshole, the idiot, because I feel like I’m distracting from the other things that are important, like global warming and that kind of stuff. I genuinely mean that. And I don’t know what to do.”

On avoiding fame:
“I hate it, like, when these people say, ‘Well, why do you go to the Ivy if you don’t want …’ Seriously, I like their food! I can’t go to a restaurant? I know I’m going to get pictures taken. I’m fine with it. And I’m going to go have their food. People give you shit for it: ‘Don’t go on Robertson!’ What, I can’t drive down the street?”

On being photographed without underwear:
“It was once, and it was when I was in Venice. And I was rushing through the room, threw the Prada dress on. And that’s what happened. And I didn’t even see the picture. I don’t look at that shit – that’s gross. If I wear a dress I have underwear on.”

On sleep troubles:
“I have really bad insomnia. My whole life. I get nervous at night going to bed, and being awake alone really freaks me out.”

On her career aspirations:
“I just want to be nominated for an award for all the work I’ve done. It’s so funny – people forget that I played two characters in Parent Trap when I was twelve years old.”

On the media:
“If I’m wearing a nude thong, they retouch it. I f—k around on my computer – I know how easy it is. They make my face look swollen. I’m like, ‘Are you that bored?’ I hear things about the night before that never even happened. Like, they said I was dating my best friend – the Samantha Ronson thing. She’s my best friend!” [Source]

Geri Halliwell bikini candid pictures

Geri Halliwell (also known as Ginger Spice) was photographed as she was jet-skiing and having a good time in St. Tropez (in the South of France) on Saturday (August 4).

She is definitely not as skinny as she used to be a few years ago, but I think she looks great!

Nicole Richie eats ‘all the time’

In the second part of the interview Nicole Richie did with Diane Sawyer for “Good Morning America” (you can watch the first part of the interview, where Nicole is talking about her DUI and accepting responsibility for what she did here), she says she never had an eating disorder, and that her dramatic weight loss was possibly due to her drug use.

Nicole also said that now that she is pregnant, she eats all the time, and she’s not afraid to gain weight if that’s what her body is needing.

Watch the video of Nicole talking about her pregnancy and her weight issues after the jump.

“Do I eat is kind of an understatement. I eat all the time, especially now. I’m constantly hungry. I’m eating at least every hour.”

“Just like any mother, you know, you want to take the best care of yourself, especially while you’re pregnant. And I’m definitely eating healthier now, and I’m really playing by the rules. I do not drink caffeine at all, cut out sushi” ”

“No alcohol … No marijuana … No pills … Nothing … No smoking around me.”

It looks like Nicole didn’t lie when she said she was eating! Here are a few candid pictures of her and soon-to-be husband Joel Madden having lunch on Friday (August 3). Nicole really seems to be enjoying her meal!

Danielle Lloyd battles weight gain

Because of her recent weight gain, Danielle Lloyd (former Miss England and Celebrity Big Brother contestant) had to hire a personal nutritionist to take care of her eating habits. Danielle confessed that she binges on junk food, and that she hasn’t been able to exercise the weight off due to her new breast enlargement surgery

“I’m working with a nutritionist to sort out my diet. I’m not supposed to eat dairy anymore, but I can’t stop eating chocolate and cheese – even though they bloat me. I love McDonald’s and have a Happy Meal a few times a week. I have steak and chips when I go out for dinner and I love Indian takeaways, too – chicken tikka masala and sag aloo.”



Danielle’s modeling career has been put in question due to the new weight gain.

“She’s now worried that she will stop being booked for modeling work if she continues to put weight on, and really wants to get back down to her normal size again,” an insider told press. [Source]

I found a few candid pictures of Danielle Lloyd in a bikini (the pics were taken on July 14 on the beach of Marbella, in Spain) and she looks pretty normal to me. A small tummy bulge and some cellulite on the legs, but definitely not overweight. What do you think?
