Ashlee Simpson has admitted that she battled against an eating disorder as a child.
"When I went to ballet school, I was around a lot of girls with eating disorders, and I actually had a minor one myself," the singer told America's Cosmopolitan magazine.
"It was about six months of not eating too much at all. I was 11 and 5 feet 2 and about 70 pounds."
Simpson has thanked her family for helping her to realise that she had a problem.
"My parents stepped in and made me eat. That really helped a lot," she added
