In Honor Of Sexual Assault Awareness Month: Famous Women Who’ve Spoken Out About Their Abuse
Fiona Apple
Singer/songwriter Fiona Apple went through a traumatic experience at the age of 12 that left her with emotional scars for years to come. On her way back from school one day, the “Fast As You Can” singer was followed into her New York City building by a strange man. After getting off of the elevator, the man came from out of the stairwell and raped her in the corridor. Because of this, Apple developed an eating disorder purposely slimming her body down, which she saw as “bait.”
