Woooow. What an interesting read.

I'm not shocked to learn she avoided eating when she was young - some of her lyrics point to her having body image issues and the difference between her neck at 17 and her neck at 21 is a REALLY stark one, the kind of thing that's obviously not just dropping baby fat. She clearly wasn't eating enough.

This is legitimately the best her body has ever looked IMHO and her interest in making healthy choices is more and more apparent all the time. She looks amazing.

It's also so very strange comparing this to her previous interviews & lyrics... she was so obsessed with being understood until very recently, thought of herself as not an adult until very recently... Seeing her call herself an adult here is about how it felt to see the "Bridge to the Sky" screen video & "NEXT LEVEL" performance at AT2009 - after years of talking about searching for her "ibasho," she basically told us on stage that she found it and I just cried lol.

It's really nice to see her happy.
