Los Angeles (CNN) — Janet Jackson would bang her head against a wall because she felt “so unattractive,” the pop star told CNN’s Piers Morgan.
Jackson, in an interview set to air on CNN’s “Piers Morgan Tonight” at 9 tonight talked about her struggles with weight and body image over the years, her relationship with her father and dealing with the passing of her brother Michael.
“There was a time when I was so down and felt so unattractive and it lasted for a very, very long time,” Jackson said, “that I used to — I used to bang my head against the wall.”
The banging would be hard and “the person that I was with, my ex-husband at the time, I mean, he’d have to stop me,” she said.
Jackson, 44, is promoting her new book, “True You,” which focuses on her lifelong self-image and self-esteem struggles.
