The New, Sad Lady Gaga Rumor: Hospitalized Repeatedly for Dangerous Dieting
Internationally celebrated for her wildly original performances, Lady Gaga may have a wildly unoriginal habit: going hungry to look good onstage. A new biography penned by Maureen Callahan, 'Poker Face: The Rise and Rise of Lady Gaga,' reveals startling claims about the seemingly confident singer, according to RadarOnline.
Gaga's former tour manager, David Ciemny, alleges in the book that the 24-year-old binged on junk food when not depriving herself of calories altogether. And he claims that in 2009 alone, the Grammy winner landed in the hospital six times while dieting to slim down. Not once, not twice, but six times last year.
Back in March, fans fretted about her health when she nearly collapsed onstage, seemingly exhausted. And in April, the pop star's rep denied that Gaga was on a bizarre baby-food diet, after rumors circulated that she was subsisting on the small jars of pureed food -- rumors that sounded crazy to some, but since Gaga's a darling among fashion insiders, it isn't difficult to believe that she conforms to that industry's golden standard: be as tiny as possible, whatever it takes.
