Lady Gaga say she’s had bulimia and anorexia since she was 15

Lady Gaga has talked about eating disorders before, saying she suffered from bulimia as a teen, but now she’s owning up to the fact that it’s a continued struggle for her. I imagine being a Super Pop Star who traipses about in her underwear all the time would put body pressure on anyone.

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.

How does oldest runway model Carmen Dell’Orefice stay beautiful?

Carmen Dell’Orefice, who at 81 holds the Guinness World Record for Oldest Working Model, is still stunning her way down the catwalk. She made a splash at Fashion Week last week by walking the runway twice in one day, and being photographed with Ryan Lochte.
