A worryingly thin vlogger has defended her videos as people sign a petition (inset) demanding she be banned from YouTube because they fear she is promoting anorexia.
Eugenia Cooney (pictured left and right), a 22-year-old New York based video blogger with an online following of almost 1 million, told her Twitter fans Friday: 'It's one thing for people to be attacking me, but when people start attacking my friends and people who stick up for me I feel horrible.' She added: 'Guys I am so sorry if you're angry at me even though I'm really not trying to do anything wrong but please do not attack other people.' And two weeks ago she released a YouTube video addressing the criticism, and said she never tried to 'influence anyone badly and I never encourage people to try to look like me'.
