.ToveLo shared an emotional new video for 'Grapefruit'
visualizes her past of grappling with an eating disorder in the video for the song “Grapefruit,” which will appear on her new album,, on Friday . The clip is one of the first glimpses into the Swedish pop star’s traumatic past, which took her more than a decade to address in her own music.Directed by Lisette Donkersloot, the video shows Tove Lo counting calories while sitting on a kitchen floor and metaphorically references the feeling of being trapped in one’s own skin.
“I’ve tried to write this song for over 10 years,” the singer wrote in a statement. “I know I haven’t talked about it a lot in interviews or even in my music which is my most honest place. I guess I had to find the right way to share the feelings and the vicious circle of behavior I was stuck in. I’ve been free from my ED and my body issues for a very long time but they did take up too many of my teenage years. I’m not sure why I wrote this song now.
