Eugenia Cooney’s ‘thin’ figure sparks worry amid eating disorder:

Fans are worried for YouTuber Eugenia Cooney after a recent TikTok video posted to her social media page.

In the clip, which has amassed more than 16.8 million views since it was posted on July 21, shows Cooney wearing a hot pink outfit from head to toe, inspired by the film “Barbie.”

“Hiiii im Barbie,” wrote Cooney, who often posts fashion content on her YouTube channel with more than 2.13 million subscribers, in the caption of the TikTok post.

However, some fans seemed to be alarmed by her extremely thin appearance, which they expressed in the comments section.

“Wishing you health and happiness,” one person wrote.

Another agreed, typing, “Wishing you good health hun hope your able to feel strong and healthy… your energy is beautiful.”

The clip was also reposted by internet personality Oli London on the platform X, formerly known as Twitter, in which he noted her “worryingly thin figure.”

Users flooded the comments with concern.

“This is extremely concerning,” one user wrote in response to London’s repost. “She’s been like this for a long time, I’m surprised thus far she hasn’t received help for her problems.”

“As a lifelong anorexic that’s currently in recovery, I am horrified that this is being promoted on her social media,” another claimed. “This imagery is not healthy for any young women to view. It’s very triggering.”

“I am surprised she has the energy to stand, let alone walk,” an X user wrote in response to London. “I hope she finds peace and help for her anorexia.”

“She is literally knocking on death’s door,” a second X user typed. “This is exceptionally sad.”

The Post reached out to Cooney for comment.

In 2019, Cooney starred in a documentary on YouTuber Shane Dawson’s channel after she had taken some time away from the internet to focus on her health.

In the video, she acknowledged that she had an eating disorder and went to rehab, Metro reported.

Previously, in 2016, some fans begged the YouTube star to seek help for what appeared to be an eating disorder.

A petition, which has since been deleted, was started on Change.org by some viewers who called for her to be banned from YouTube, as her thinness was “triggering to her fan base,” according to a report from Yahoo! Beauty at the time.

“She may not be intentionally influencing her viewers, but showing more than 50% of her body in her videos and pictures [is] not helping girls with Anorexia or any eating disorder,” the petition read.

In 2019, she spoke to PAPER Magazine about her journey.

“I was never trying to cause any harm to anyone or asking them to lose weight,” Cooney told the outlet, as she pointed out that she never spoke about her weight. “But you still see people judging you and not realizing that you don’t have any bad intentions.”

She also added that when people are battling with an eating disorder or mental illness, it’s “not really something” that they choose to have.

“It would be great if the internet just tried to be positive to people,” Cooney said. “If they’re concerned, even if the person may not listen immediately, showing concern in a kinder way would be way better.”
