Kelly Clarkson is denying that she felt suicidal because she was forced to be skinny.

In the British magazine Attitude, Kelly was quoted as saying, “When I was really skinny, I wanted to kill myself. I was miserable, like inside and out, for four years of my life. But no one cared, because aesthetically you make sense.”

The magazine also quoted her as saying, “It was a very dark time for me. I thought the only way out was quitting. I wrecked my knees and my feet because all I would do is put in headphones and run. I was at the gym all the time.”

But Kelly is now explaining that her weight was a result of her unhappiness — it wasn’t the cause of it.

“Just to clear something up. I wasn’t ever miserable because I had to be thin. I said I was miserable & as a result I became thin,” she tweeted.

She quoted a headline saying she wanted to kill herself because she was forced into being thin, and wrote, “NOT TRUE. I’ve never contemplated suicide because of my weight. I said people had no idea I was unhappy oddly enough because I appeared healthy.”
