I know. I was like that, even after I had recovered from anorexia, and it really upset me when people would joke about how I must be anorexic because I was so thin. It was very hurtful. I do, however, think something isn't really "right" with Nicole Richie...she has sworn in interviews that she has always been really thin except for when she was in rehab and gained weight, and that's when she became famous so we're used to seeing her that way. I'm not sure I buy that--she just doesn't look healthy. There's a difference between being naturally thin and looking like you're actually alive, and being thin and sick-looking.
