Hi everyone!
I can’t thank you all enough for your ongoing support!
Recently I became an ambassador for the UK Parliamentary Society for Arts, Fashion & Sports, and I hope to help create more discussions on mental and physical health within the entertainment industry in the Houses of Parliament.
This morning I came across a really uplifting and emotional video by a social media content creator named Shane Dawson. The video is based around another social media content creator named Eugenia Cooney who has been through a rehabilitation visit for an eating disorder.
This type of video is really important to watch and share because it highlights a lot of the misunderstandings around eating disorders and mental health.
Within modelling there is a lot of pressure to look a certain way and be a certain size - “sample size” to be exact. A lot of models will starve themselves, force feed themselves tissues or only ingest juice or liquids for days on end to try meet the requirements of the industry.
Its really uplifting to see these topics being spoken about across social media, and with Shane’s recent video I hope we can grasp a better understanding of what it can be like to be around someone, or even notice in ourselves, the hardship that comes with an eating disorder.
I hope you can all find time to watch the video which I have attached here, and if you could share a tweet or tell your friends about it that would be great!
Lots of love
Rosie
