Curvy Beyonce reveals how she stays in shape
DREAM FIGURE: Beyonce has complained of the pressure to look good and says her mother and her stylists let her know when she needs to cut down on food ? 'I'm eating veg and drinking water... it's boring," she said
The Bootylicious singer, who is famous for her curvy figure, admits it takes a lot of hard work for her to stay in shape so she needs to have a goal.
She said: "I buy something too small and then say, 'I have a reason. I need to wear these jeans or this hot dress'." The stunning actress (27) also said her dream of winning an Oscar drives her on.
Statue
Talking about a painting in her gym which features the gold statue, she revealed: "I look at it, and I'm like: 'OK, I have to stay in shape'."
Although she would like to lose a few pounds, Beyonce -- who is married to hip-hop star Jay-Z -- admits she wasn't happy when she shed 15lbs to play Deena Jones in Dreamgirls.
"I felt very chic, like a model. But it didn't look natural. I didn't feel very sexy or feminine, and I didn't have much confidence." Beyonce's figure may be the envy of women around the world, but there are parts she'd like to change. "I wish my arms and thighs were tighter, and my feet were different," she said.
Stilettos
"I used to love them until I started dancing around in stilettos... [and] my ears are pointy," she added.
