Fiona Apple Needs To Be Careful With Her Health

thin? yes she was, but not as thin

 Nobody is claiming Fiona Apple isn’t naturally thin, she is, and I would certainly be happy to mind my own business and if Fiona wants to starve herself to death, it’s not my problem. Also, if she looks terrible? Not my problem either, I’m not nailin’ her any way.  But I run a music website and it would be remiss of me not to state categorically that she looks anorexic, skeletal and unwell.

At the Beacon Theater, she looked translucent and bony at the same time and while she says that because she is not ill it is not anybodies business, this is not her natural weight. She was not this thin as a teenager or in her 20s she got thinner and thinner and now she looks as though she is method acting for the lead in the Karen carpenter story.

I would guess that everybody around her is quite aware as to what is happening here and it is worth noting that starving yourself suggests serious mental problems (Suggests???) and if she doesn’t get help she could kill herself or at the very least end up in hospital.

Fiona was the poster girl for growing up with a sense of the pressures that bear down on girls, it was a rare gift, she spoke for and to injured girls but surely the hope (even the point) was that she gets better. And while she may be doing many things, certainly as a creative force her powers have actually improved (listen to “Dull Tools” if you don’t believe me) as a person she is fucking Kanye West; she needs help.
