Kate Moss might want to think a little harder before she speaks. After she told Women’s Wear Daily that she lived by the slogan, “nothing tastes as good as skinny feels,” the 35-year-old British supermodel has been attacked by eating disorder groups. “She probably doesn’t realize how dangerous such comments can be,” said Mary George, a representative of a British eating disorder charity called Beat told US Weekly magazine. The expression, which Moss told the fashion mag was her slogan, is actually posted on many Web sites that push girls with anorexia or bulimia over the edge. But Moss’ modeling agency, Storm, is saying she was quoted out of context. “This was part of a longer answer Kate gave during a wider-ranging interview, which has unfortunately been taken out of context and completely misrepresented,” the agency said in a statement. “For the record, Kate does not support this as a lifestyle choice.” Hmmm.
