‘Was kicked out of ballet for my curves’

-

British songstress Paloma Faith (above) has revealed that she was left out of ballet school aged 10 because of her “curves”. The Picking Up The Pieces hitmaker said she was ejected from the dance academy she attended as a child because she had started to show signs upon hitting puberty and grew natural curves, reported Female First. “I’ve had so many (knock-backs). I was thrown out of ballet school as a 10 year old and told never to be a ballerina or dancer of any kind because I hit puberty and showed signs of having curves. Then I ended up in a dance college and I nearly got thrown out of that because I was a bit too naughty, sending inappropri­ate material around to members of staff,” she said.
