Kasey Chamber on Fame pressure and Eating Disorder

In an interview with Mia Freedman’s No Filter Podcast, Chambers spoke of how her seven time platinum 2001 album Barricades & Brickwalls, created an enormous amount of pressure for the singer.

“I just didn’t feel myself and I knew that something wasn’t right … I just couldn’t admit to myself that that is what it was,” she said.

“I wouldn’t look in the mirror and see someone really fat.

“I didn’t want to look in the mirror. It wasn’t an image thing for me … It wasn’t ‘Oh I look fat in photos’. It was more about the control thing.”

At the time of her battle, Chambers had recently married her now ex-husband Shane Nicholson, and was a mother to her then four-year-old son, Talon — from a previous marriage.

At her lowest, Chambers said she was just 44kg, which is when family and friends addressed the issue, because she didn’t see what she was doing as having a disorder.

“It couldn’t be that … Everything pointed to ‘Nah, that’s not me’,’’ she said.

Chambers said she turned to help, citing stress and negativity in her life was to blame for the disorder.

“I think a lot of that actually was me not allowing myself to kind of break down every now and then,” she said.

In 2013, Nicholson and Chambers decided to call it quits after eight years of marriage and two children together. The split was said to be the result of a collision between work and family life.

In 2015, Chambers went through surgery to remove nodules from the country singer’s vocal cords, which obviously brought her a lot of fear that she wouldn’t be able to talk again, or make a living off her music.

Following the procedure, Chambers revealed the operation gave her the voice to be the singer that had been in her head for a long time.

“It really did give me a new strength and a new power and coupled with the new power I felt in my personal life,” she said.

“I’m still finding myself as a single mother of three who has a career and who is a daughter and a friend and has all these different hats.

“Don’t get me wrong, I don’t always get it right, but for the most part I feel like I’m owning it a little bit more than I ever have and I feel a strength in myself that is not about other people in my life.”
