Ambra Angiolini and bulimia: “It deforms you, I had crazy gastric juices” | VIDEO

As an actress she gives herself a 7, as a presenter (“now that I don’t do it anymore”) we get to 8, while as a radio speaker we get to a nice “10”. Ambra Angiolini answered all of our questions in the interview you can see above. First of all: can you ask a woman for her age? “Sure, you have to ask! 44 years “. And how many do you hear? “16, old age is my youth!”.

Ambra tells us about her book that has just come out, “Infamous”, where he talks about the eating disorder he suffered from since he was 15: the bulimia. What is the difference between bulimia and anorexia? “In one direction you eat a lot and then try to get hold of He retched. In the other, we stop having to do with nourishment ”.

When did you realize you had bulimia? “The first time I had 15 years. I was inspired by a movie, he was dealing with this model who nervously ate things and then inexplicably went straight to a bathroom and threw up. I remembered it when my head needed a way to start. Beauty has nothing to do with it, then someone decided it was the disease of those who wanted to be thin. I can say it’s bullshit ”. When did you realize you had to get help? “When I realized that my only mirror was the toilet seat”. Does it affect both men and women? “Yes, it’s just that they find it even harder to tell themselves too”.

Did anyone realize he suffered from it? “I think the others didn’t want to understand it, because I think it showed. We deform. Then they told me ‘redone’, in reality I was not redone I was full of crazy gastric juices ”. Is it something that is overcome forever or does it come out every so often? “I don’t care anymore, that is, it will never take over again. But I know it’s there ”.

But with the presenter, actress, singer (and writer), we also talk about much more. From his career to his children: if the daughter, for example, were to tell her that she became a Muslim? “He will have his reasons and explain them to me.” What if he catches her doing cocaine? “I get so pissed off.”

With her we also dismantle the clichés of cinema and we get to the deniers of Covid. What would you say to one of them? “For safety, even when you are deeply ignorant about something, in the meantime put it on”.
