Nicole Ritchie speaks out over weight loss

Simple Life star tells tabloids: 'Stop writing about my weight'

Nicole Ritchie has begged tabloid editors to stop drawing attention to her weight.

Appearing on The Tyra Banks Show, Nicole said: ‘A lot of people gain weight under stress and a lot of people lose weight under stress and I am one of those people that loses weight.

‘I know the photographers are following me every day. I know that they're looking for something wrong and that doesn't feel good at all. That obviously doesn't help me.

‘I am naturally a thin person and I am 5'1", and putting on five or 10 pounds, that looks like a lot on me.

Nicole, 24, also revealed she has employed a nutritionist and has therapy sessions to control her stress levels and put on weight.

‘I definitely wouldn't mind gaining a few more pounds at all', she added. 'I think that people's weight fluctuates. It happens. It happens to everybody.’
