Just a couple of weeks ago Stephanie Pratt was on the cover of US Magazine stating that being on The Hills made her bulimic. Oddly enough, this week she’s telling Ok! Magazine that all the tabloid talk is pure rumor. She even suggested that it was being on The Hills that saved her from bulimia, something she had struggled with since junior high. She said,
“I should have died a million times,” Stephanie told OK! at the launch of the Charlotte Russe fall collection in NYC.
She continues,
“I was just partying, trying to fulfill this emptiness that I had for no reason,” she admitted. ”[In the reports], it says that I’m on The Hills and I’m throwing up. But what the hell am I doing? I’m living a dream life right now, you know,” she explained. “I got myself out of it, I got help.”
Hmmm? Regardless of the fact that Ok! and US Magazines are rivals, one would think that the reality star would get her story straight. Perhaps she had to speak out in order to save her reputation/job as a reality star considering their stardom is short-lived in comparison to A-list and B-list celebrities. Wonder what tabloid she’ll speak with next week?

The media has been buzzing this week as Stephanie Pratt is on the cover of Us Weekly Magazine and claims that starring on The Hills reality show caused her to become bulimic. For the first time she opens up about hating her body, self-inducing vomiting and struggling with the pressures of being on the hit MTV reality show.
The 23-year-old said she began bingeing and purging in 2007 (when she first joined the show) after she watched a scene that she filmed with co-star Lauren Conrad. She said,
“I was horrified. I remember saying, ‘I can’t believe how huge I look walking over to Lauren.’”
She also spoke about the pressures that other costars unknowingly put on her. She mentioned a time while filming in Hawaii and she wasn’t sure whether to wear a cover-up over her bikini, so she asked costar Audrina Partridge,
“What looks better, ’shirt on or off?’” Patridge said ‘On.’” Says Pratt, “The producers never put pressure on us to lose weight,” but adds, “It’s embarrassing working with skinny girls.”
Pratt is now on the road to recovery. However, one has to wonder why someone with bulimia would voluntarily pose on the cover of a national magazine in her bikini.
