Ashlee Simpson blames her stint at ballet for her pre-teen anorexia

Ashlee Simpson has blamed her stint at ballet for her pre-teen anorexia.

Talking about her experiences she said that it was "all about image and weight", and that it was a lot of pressure at a very young and impressionable age reports DigitalSpy UK..

The singer has turned her back on these early worries, but admits her family were shocked at how thin she had become after a period at New York's School of American Ballet.

She said: "That was a brief thing. As soon as my mom saw me she was like, 'We are going to eat steak and French fries!'

"It's all about image and weight and you're talking about it all day. But it's not anything I worry about anymore."

Meanwhile, when asked about the widespread speculation – on the Web and in tabloids – that's she's had a nose job, the 21-year-old singer giggled and told the Associated Press: "Everybody's already saying it, so I just don't talk about it. I'm like, okay, whatever. It doesn't bother me."

Yet when the news service pressed to get her to confirm or deny the rumor, Simpson did neither – she just giggled more reports People Magazine.

"Maybe," she said. "Who knows!"
