‘Lennon was bulimic, had food fetishes’

LOS ANGELES: Beatles legend John Lennon was bulimic and suffered from food fetishes and obsessions, claims a new book.
‘BackStage Pass VIP’ alleges that Lennon was always hungry and loved to eat but “hated the feeling of being full” so he would “force himself to vomit” after eating, Radar Online reported.
“Lennon was confused about his obsession with food.He was surrounded by talented musicians, but many had drinking and drug problems — so it was hard for them to see Lennon’s purging behaviour as extraordinary ,” claims author Debra Sharon Davis.
“One must also realize that at that time the public and the media were unaware of bulimia as an addiction and health risk — which made it all the more frightening for John Lennon. Davis said that Lennon, “harboured food fetishes”.
“He loved eating Rice Krispies with large scoops of ice cream on top. He enjoyed putting ice cream on everything when he could.”
