Model Sophie Nolan is speaking out about the terrifying consequences of eating disorders after suffering three heart attacks before the age of 25. “It’s not worth it,” she says of starving yourself to be thin.

Amanda Bynes wants the world to know she is not erratic. In fact, she’s going to be taking legal action against anyone who says otherwise. Hours ago, Amanda took to Twitter where she demanded that people stop making false claims against her and quit posting unflattering photos of her online.

Amanda Bynes has been dealing with more legal issues than week can keep track of, but yesterday things became even more bleak for the troubled star. After celebrating her 27th birthday, Amanda took to Twitter where she revealed that she is struggling with an eating disorder.

When the folks at Us Weekly invited Amanda Bynes to reveal “25 things you didn’t know about me,” they must have known they were hitting a jackpot. The former child-star/retired actress, who has been acting very erratically during the past year, confessed a number of strange facts about herself.

She’s recieved some flack this month for gaining a few pounds, and instead of quietly and secretly starving herself thin again, or signing a deal with a weight loss brand, Gaga owned up to indulging in her Italian dad’s pastas and pizzas in a radio interview. She said she was on a diet, but that she wasn’t ashamed of her body.
