TORONTO — Pop star Ke$ha checked herself in to a residential treatment centre on Friday to deal with an eating disorder.
“I’m a crusader for being yourself and loving yourself, but I’ve found it hard to practice,” she said in a statement. “I’ll be unavailable for the next 30 days, seeking treatment for my eating disorder [and] to learn to love myself again. Exactly as I am.”
The singer did not disclose the name of the facility but, according to reports, it is Timberline Knolls near Chicago.
