Beyonce fasted to lose weight


Singer Beyonce Knowles fasted for two weeks to lose 20 pounds (9 kg) for her latest film role.
According to Hollywood.com, Beyonce took on a strict diet to make sure she lost weight for the film "Dreamgirls".
She said: "I wanted to make a physical transformation because I was playing this role and I wanted to be not Beyonce... It was a big sacrifice.

I basically ate vegetables, I had a trainer... I was very healthy. She added: "I did do a two-week fast but (I took) all the vitamins and nutrients my body needs. I normally wouldn't have done that for Beyonce as a performer, but Dina, as the character, I needed to drop it really fast."
