Human Barbie reveals she starves herself: 'Breatharian' believes she can live off...
The Daily Mail ^ | February 28, 2014 | Deni Kirkova

Ukranian model Valeria Lukyanova, who lives her life as a 'human Barbie' has revealed she doesn't consume food or water anymore.

Some have said she uses plastic surgery and Photoshop to create her doll-like image, but her impossibly thin waist could actually be down to not eating for weeks.

The model, 23, has said she is now converting to 'Breatharianism' - training herself to live off only light and air.

'In recent weeks I have not been hungry at all; I'm hoping it's the final stage before I can subsist on air and light alone,' she has said.

The model and singer's new vice, Breatharianism, is a cult that believes food - and possibly water - are not necessary.

A breatharian is said to be someone who never eats or drinks as they can exist on 'cosmic micro-food', according to the International Business Times.

The practice is criticised as potentially lethal pseudoscience, and several practitioners have reportedly died of starvation. None have submitted themselves for comprehensive medical testing.

With her pinched waist, skeletal arms, enormous coloured contact lenses, thick make-up and vacant expression, Valeria believes she has become a living, breathing Barbie - something she sees as the ultimate embodiment of perfection.

Her brain is losing weight rapidly, she will soon be part of the ground.

Oh, it's a final stage alright...just not the one you're hoping for.

Double sirloin burger, medium rare, with cheddar and bacon sounds good right about now. Let me check to see which chef is working today . . . .

The practice is criticised as potentially lethal...

No, I don't think there is any "potentially" about it, if you go without food and water long enough it will be lethal.

She doesn’t look starved in this.
Slim but normal, no bones poking out.
If she really does follow through on this business though that will change.

For her sake I hope its all about the publicity.

She’s been cheating. I don’t see her ribs sticking out.
