The US talk show host wrote about why, at 54, she's happier than ever.
: “I went on a crash diet. I was the thin girl, I was the sample size, and I was walking the red carpet.”
“I was offered four magazine covers...” Ricki recalled. “The power of that, it was unbelievable. Well, not unbelievable, totally believable, but it happened to me.” She said her makeover has had a clear impact on her career, adding: “Yes, I got more opportunities, more attention, it was way more positive.”However, Ricki said the reactions gave her mixed feelings, recalling that at the time: “I’m conflicted because I am proud of myself. When I lose that weight, it is something I want the world to know, I did this.”
“It’s a lot of work and a lot of willpower, so I want to talk about it, but I know that it’s not the best thing to be celebrating,” she said, later explaining how the attention was “perpetuating that obsession we have with diet culture”.
