While many Hollywood starlets are dieting to extremes, working out daily and doing everything within their power to conform to the industries' skinny standard, Beyonce has a different attitude.
The sexy singer lost 20 pounds for her role in "Dreamgirls," losing some of the curves that have made her one of the sexiest stars in the world. But, it wasn't fun for the former "Destiny's Child" member, who prefers to eat her food and embraces her curves.
Of slimming down, Beyonce says, "I'm a black woman and in our society hips and thighs are what is considered beautiful. I'd go to radio stations and guys were like, 'What's happened with you? Where's Beyonce?'"
Along with other people's comments, the "Irreplaceable" singer says she didn't feel herself when she was thinner.
She reveals, "I would look in the mirror and not feel like a woman. I didn't feel sexy. People in the fashion industry were like, 'Oh my God, you look beautiful.' But it's more important to feel like me in my own skin and I didn't feel like myself when I was thinner. Plus, it's heaps more fun to be able to eat pizza again!"
The singer and actress was nominated for a Golden Globe award for the role.
