Interview Clarkson for the magazine Attitude magazine

2 weeks ago 35-year-old Kelly was invited to the studio of the publication Attitude magazine, where she had an interview. It touched on the theme of appearance and it's no accident, because about 10 years ago, Clarkson was much slimmer. Tell about that time, Kelly decided nothing to hide, and in the magazine they published these lines:

"Once the theme of appearance is touched, then you remember that I once was very slender. However, at that time, I felt very unhappy, and to the point that I wanted to put my hands on myself. All these years, and there were 4 of them, when this nightmare happened to me, I was in some kind of a ball from which there was no way out. I lived by the standards that our society established. I constantly had to listen to the fact that I had to be slender and the slightest fold at the waist - horror, which I urgently needed to get rid of. That's why I spent this entire period in gyms. For me it was torture, which can not be compared to anything. The most interesting thing is that many people knew about my mood and state, but before that nobody was concerned. "

Clarkson refuted her words

After the number with Kelly's statements regarding leanness and suicide saw the light, the celebrity decided that her words misunderstood. On her Twitter page, Clarkson wrote a post that slightly clarified the situation:

"I do not understand why the magazine published my statements in this vein. If you read them, you can understand that the fight against extra pounds brought me to the point that I wanted to say goodbye to life on my own. In fact, everything was not so. I was incomprehensible and disgusted with the standards of society that were imposed on me. It was from this that I was wildly unhappy. I had to fight with everyone: with a real, with the producer and with public opinion. The thought of suicide I had from this, and not from the fact that I was losing weight. When I started telling my friends about my thoughts, they did not understand me at all. All told me: "Look at yourself, you look perfectly healthy!". Probably, it was so, but in my heart a nightmare was going on. "
