Demi Moore revealed that she developed an eating disorder due to the “humiliating” demands of producers who pressured her to lose weight. In an interview with Elle magazine, the 62-year-old actress shared her struggles with becoming “obsessed” with exercise. She recalled an awkward moment when one of her producers “pulled her aside” and told her to “lose weight” several times.

“I took that to heart,” she admitted, explaining how it led her to be harsh on herself. “I placed almost all of my value on my body, on making it look a certain way.”

Moore also discussed how working in Hollywood became more challenging as she got older, feeling that she wasn’t seen as “sexy” enough for certain roles or mature enough for others. “I wasn’t 20 or 30, but I also wasn’t the person they envisioned at 40 or 50,” she said.
