some images of Richey James ~ a starving artist ~

NOTE: I have also heard of him being referred to as Richey Edwards

All of the images are of musician Richey James (pictures found on the internet) of The Manic Street Preachers (who have a song about anorexia: 4 Stone, 7 Pounds on their album The Holy Bible, which has an ironic image on it's cover, as seen above). The lyrics to 4 Stone, 7 Pounds can be found in the lyric section of this spiderweb. here

These photos are haunting.

And they are another illustration of the male rock star image being as eating-disorder-seductive to boys in the same way as female models are to girls.

I appreciate Richey James admitting his struggles with anorexia to the public at one point, helping guys everywhere. And I thank the band for writing about anorexia in music, helping everyone out everywhere .
