Motto of Kate Moss draws strong rebuke
Eating disorder experts criticized Kate Moss on Thursday after the supermodel cited as her motto a phrase used on Web sites that encourage girls to avoid eating.
In an interview with the fashion Web site WWD, Moss said one of her mottos was "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels."
The same slogan is posted on Web sites encouraging girls not to eat.
Mary George of British eating-disorder charity Beat called Moss' words "very unfortunate."
"Comments like this make it even more difficult" for young people struggling with an eating disorder," she said.
