Doesn’t the note sound like the agent from Jeanette’s book?
Comment on watching one of my favorite singers wither away right before our eyes is heartbreaking

I’m not going to comment on how thin she is, but that explanation seems the most likely, else why would the note be in there at all?

No, it’s the fact that the video glamorizes how emaciated she is, which is incompatible with seeing “could lose a few pounds” as a negative, since she’s flaunting the end stage of being skinny. You can’t critique something you’re the personification of and trying to paint as normal. “Couldn’t hurt to lose a few pounds” is exactly the deadly lie anorexics tell themselves because of the delusional thinking fueled by their disorder.
But it’s clear to me by now that you’re not engaging in good faith.
