It was because at the time, I was so emotionally destroyed from the abuse, and the staff on the show knew it,\" she explains. That's why Jaslene is super excited to announce to you all that she's partnering with Liz Claiborne and the National Domestic Violence Hotline to spread awareness about teen dating violence and to encourage abuse victims to speak up.\n\n\"I'm not perfect, no one's perfect,\" she says. \"But find your own inner beauty and what makes you happy. It'll rekindle your strength and belief in yourself!\" For more information on teen dating violence or to seek support, loveisrespect.org.&amp;amp;#xE2;&amp;amp;#xBF;&amp;amp;#xBF;JANE SHIN PARK, ASSOCIATE BEAUTY &amp;amp; HEALTH EDITOR"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
