Lady Gaga has been hit with an online petition to stop glamorising eating disorder after her recent performance at SXSW Festival.

In the music event, the 27-year-signer and an artist specialising in "vomit panting", Millie Brown, were seen throwing up on each other and continued to perform in the filth, reports the Mirror.

The petition, organized by Chris Wolverton, which says "Pop star Lady Gaga once struggled with bulimia, but now she is glamorising the eating disorder" has been signed by 10,000 which condemns the singer for glamorising bulimia and launched on The Petition Site.

The plea also asks Gaga to end her professional relationship with Millie Brown and to stop using imagery that could trigger fans struggling with eating disorders.
