LOS ANGELES, Nov. 26 (UPI) -- Canadian-born teen actress Shenae Grimes insists she has always been thin and says rumors she has an eating disorder are untrue.

"Meet me in person, and you can't say anything. No bones sticking out," the 19-year-old "90210" actress told People magazine. "Just because people are calling you skinny doesn't mean I'm like, 'Yay!' No! You're telling me I don't look right. This is me, this is my body -- I have accepted it."

Asked about her reputation as a party girl, Grimes told the celebrity weekly, "The hours I work I definitely can't (be.)"

The actress, who is also known for her work on the TV series "Degrassi: The Next Generation," then added that she spends most of her down time at home watching DVDs and hanging out with her friends.
