I love to hear that. Her music has really helped me through tough times. Her voice is missed dearly.

It was her version that made me realize I don't like that song

I never heard of anorexia until Karen Carpenter passed away.
Was she the first famous celebrity to have anorexia?

I doubt she was THE first - I know Jane Fonda dealt with it. The Olive Oyl look was around for a while, but any relations between desired slenderness and eating disorders were not generally public knowledge at that time.
