Many people strive to look like the "beautiful" models who are thin. Do do so, many people crash diet or starve themselves (anorexia) or purge (bulimia) / vomit / use laxatives after meals so as not to gain weight. When photoshopping happens in magaiznes or pictures, they are changing what the model actually looks like. Often, it is to make them "prettier" and thinner. When these images come out and people see them, they are not realistic. It is not possible to healthily look so thin. This can lead to eating disorders as people strive to look like this fake images.

Why do models have the name for being anorexic?

For many years, model have been accused of eating disorders and being anorexic. This is increasing even more in the past few years. The reason behind this is mostly looks. Models are almost always tall and thin. Many people think that they are often "too" thin, and accuse them of having eating disoprders. Since many girls follow fashion closely, people worry that these images of tall, thin, and (sometimes, in the case of magazines) re-touched models are not good role models.

sometimes -- not usually. People who are anorexic do not like themselves, and if even you don't like yourself, it's hard for other people to like you. Anorexia is a mental disorder that is treatable, so an anorexic person can learn how to like themselves and have good relationships with boys and other girls.


Why do celeberities become anorexic?

I think that celebrities become anorexic, because when they were children, or teens, their hero or heroins were anorexic, and their anorexic now. But maybe it is because they don't think they are skinny enough (which of course every celeb is), and try to go on a regular diet, but end up going anorexic. And regular girls see them doing it, so they go anorexic, and it just passes down generation to generation, and it gets worse and worse each century.
