47-year-old Demi happy with her body

Friday, April 9, 2010
Demi Moore has admitted that she had an "extreme obsession" with her body but is finally, at 47, happy with the way she looks.

"I had an extreme obsession with my body. I made it a measure of my own value," Moore told the UK's Elle magazine.

"I tried to dominate it, which I did, and I changed it multiple times over. But it never lasted and ultimately it didn't bring me anything but temporary happiness," she said.

"Does being thin resolve anything? No. The irony is that when I abandoned that desire to dominate my body, it actually became the body that I'd always wanted. But it only happened when I stopped trying to control it. At the end of the day, this kind of obsession is pointless and meaningless."
