According to Bossip
Pop singer Ke$ha, who checked into
rehab for an eating disorder earlier this month, was the victim of a serious
weight struggle. Her mom, Pebe Sebert, who has entered the same facility as her
daughter, is shedding more light on her daughter’s situation. “I’ve watched my
beautiful, self-confident, brilliant daughter be berated and ridiculed for her
looks and weight to the point that she almost died,” Sebert tells People. “The
doctors told me her blood pressure and sodium levels were so low, they’d never
seen it that low except with someone who’d had a heart attack or stroke. They
said
it was a miracle she hadn’t already dropped dead on stage.”
According to her mom, Ke$ha, 26, had
been battling body issues since middle school, but they have gotten worse since
she signed with longtime producer Dr. Luke and former manager David Sonenberg,
when she was just 18. “One time on a conference call, Sonenberg was screaming,
‘You need to lose weight! I don’t care what you do … take drugs, not eat, stick
your finger down your throat!’ ” Sebert tells People. “Ke$ha was just weeping.
She drove around afterward thinking about killing herself.”
Dr. Luke and Sonenberg have denied
the allegations. Sebert also details Ke$ha’s bulimia habits, saying she “could
throw up really quickly and quietly” even in public restrooms. “She’d even take
a bag in there so no one could see her bent over the toilet. She was really
sneaky.”
Damn, you never know what people are
struggling with, but this seems like it’s probably the norm in the industry
full of rail thin stars.
