Rumer Willis, daughter of Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, has revealed that she constantly gets bullied for her looks.

"I was constantly bullied because of my looks, so I struggled a lot with my body image... For a long time I just wanted to look tiny and androgynous," she said.

The 26-year-old actress-singer said she never talked about her struggle to her parents, reported Ace Showbiz.

"I never really shared what I was going through with my parents, because it was too painful. I didn't know how to ask for help or how to even bring it up.

"But I do remember my mom telling me, 'There's always going to be someone who's a better singer. There's always going to be someone more fit. There's always someone who's going to be, in your mind, better than you-who you're comparing yourself to. But you can't do that, because you will live such an unhappy life.' It just took me a long time to put that advice into practice," she added.
