Cox rages over anorexia claims

Actress Courteney Cox has slammed rumours she suffers from an eating disorder, insisting she has simply found her optimum weight.

Critics feared the former Friends star's bony physique would spark a craze for anorexia among young girls, but Cox fumes that she has been used as a scapegoat for rise in food-related illnesses.

She says: "If I like myself a certain way, I shouldn't have to feel like I'm responsible for anorexia across the country.

"I have never had any control over what anyone does, in any capacity. If I like myself at this weight, this is what I'm going to be.

"I don't have an eating disorder. I remember one magazine said: 'Courteney Cox Talks About Her Bulimia.' I didn't even say a word."
