Celiac Spotlight: Emmy Rossum



In today's Celiac Spotlight, we have, the lovely, actress/singer-songwriter, Emmy Rossum. Emmy Rossum is best known for her beautiful singing voice, and, her acting talents in movies, such as "The Phantom of the Opera," and, "The Day After Tomorrow." One thing that is not well-known about her is, she has Celiac Disease.

Emmy Rossum announced her diagnosis of Celiac Disease on MTV news, when she was given a cupcake for her 22nd birthday on camera. She was only able to eat the frosting on the cupcake.

It's refreshing to see a young actress/singer talking about her diagnosis.
