Elle King detailed her recent autism diagnosis, sharing that she was diagnosed after competing on Fox’s new game show, Nation’s Dumbest, which premieres July 15. “I love games. I love game shows. I’m extremely competitive, and I love puzzles and everything,” King told Us Weekly in an interview published July 14. “I actually found out right after the show that I’m autistic, and so I was like, ‘Everything makes so much sense now.’ But I didn’t even know.” As the 37-year-old continued, “Right before the show, I was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ [I was] starting to panic, ‘There is a scenario that you could be the nation’s dumbest.’” But after taking two different IQ exams—which she said both gave her a score of 132 when the average IQ is 100—she was hopeful about her prospects, especially after she received her diagnosis. “I’ve had a lot of not my proudest moments, and so especially with my autism diagnosis, I am putting new kinds of safety barricades,” King explained, “and I just want to be around people that I feel safe around, and I just want to do things that bring me joy.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/videos/2506528323578/elle-king-shares-how-autism-diagnosis-changed-her-life
