Pop star Nicole Scherzinger has revealed that her secret eight-year fight with bulimia nearly destroyed her.
The 36-year-old former 'X Factor' judge said at one point her battle with the sinister eating disorder left her passed out in a hotel room in the Mediterranean, reported Daily Mirror.
"I had started losing my voice, I couldn't sing at shows, and then I remember my manager finding me passed out. I thought, 'I'm going to lose everything I love if I don't love myself'. One day when you feel you've reached the end, you just say, 'I'm not doing this any more'.
"It's sad to see how I wasted my life. I had such a great life on the outside, the Dolls (band Pussycat Dolls) were on top of the world but I was miserable on the inside. I'm never letting that happen again; you only get one life - I was 27 only once," she said.
