Lady Gaga has spoken about her experiences of suffering with bulimia and bullying during high school.
The 'Bad Romance' star, who this week confirmed the first of her 2012 world tour dates, appeared on US show It's Our Turn and spoke openly to host Maria Shriver.
“I started having trouble with girls in middle school,” Gaga revealed. “I always knew that I wanted to do something very career oriented, and I always wanted to be a musician.”
Explaining how this bullying led to eating disorder, Gaga said: “I used to throw up all the time in high school, so I’m not that confident. And maybe it’s easier for me to talk about it now because I don’t do it anymore.”
“Every video I’m in, every magazine cover, they stretch you; they make you perfect,” added Gaga. “It’s not real life. I’m gonna say this about girls: The dieting wars have got to stop. Everyone just knock it off. Because at the end of the day, it’s affecting kids your age. And it’s making girls sick.”
Gaga went on to claim that she gave up forcing herself to vomit after it began to affect her voice and singing ability.
