"I think that the people around me were more worried about it than I was, because the reason I used to cut myself was because of my body," she said. "To be quite honest with you, I only started wearing baggy clothes because of my body."
"I was really, really glad though, mainly, that I'm in this place in my life, because if that had happened three years ago, when I was in the midst of my horrible body relationship - or dancing a ton, five years ago, I wasn't really eating. I was, like, starving myself," she continued. "I remember taking a pill that told me that it would make me lose weight and it only made me pee the bed - when I was 12."
"It's a big thing in my life that I feel I have never been physically desired by somebody," she told British GQ back in June.
"So I dress the way I dress as I don't like to think of you guys - I mean anyone, everyone - judging [my body], or the size of it," she continued. "But that doesn't mean that I won't wake up one day and decide to wear a tank top, which I have done before."
"I love having kids relate to me and tell me that I make them feel comfortable in their bodies," she said in a Vanity Fair video in December. "If I can do anything, I wanna do that."
