Kelly Clarkson has maintained that she is rarely bothered by the media's obsession with her weight.

The 'Since U Been Gone' star recently admitted that she suffered from bulimia as a teenager, but insisted that she is now comfortable with her curvaceous figure.

She told People: "I am from a small town so I am used to everybody having their two cents to say about me. I grew up with that my whole life, so it's just on a wider scale.

"I mean, I'd be an idiot to say it doesn't bother me at all. Obviously I'm not like: 'Someone thinks I look like a pig - right on!' But at the same time I don't really care that much.”
