JoJo recalls having injections that “make you have no appetite” (via toofab)
"When I was 18 I remember being sat down in the Blackground office and the president of the label being like, 'We just want you to look as healthy as possible," she claimed. "And I was like, 'I'm actually the picture of health. I look like a healthy girl who eats and is active. I don't think this is about my health. I think that you want me to be really skinny.' He's like, 'No, I wouldn't say that,'" she shared.
While the Grammy winner said she's "not angry for being looked at as a product," she believes this "really unhealthy" way of thinking ultimately represents a larger problem in the industry. "I'm sure a lot of us develop extreme insecurities and disordered eating and really unhealthy thinking about ourselves," she continued, starting to become emotional. "I felt that how I was must have been not enough. Must have been dissatisfying.""So I started getting really f--ked up, drinking, making out with strangers, looking for validation and attention and looking to feel pretty, looking to feel good, to feel worthy," she recalled.
"I didn't get any money. I didn't get any damages or anything like that," she said. "I just walked away being able to sign another record contract. I was like, 'Let's go!' I was free."
