Beyonce Knowles ate pork scratchings when she was on a diet.

The singer-and-actress, who had to lose weight for her role in "Dreamgirls," substituted her cravings for chocolate and chips with low-carb pig skins.

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.

Beyonce braved freezing temperatures to show off her curves and flash her armpits in a strapless dress at the London premiere of "Dreamgirls" on Sunday night.

The singer-and-actress dazzled on the red carpet in a shimmering, sequined gown created by top designer Elie Saab. However, Beyonce admitted she wasn't planning on wearing the revealing outfit all night as the temperature in London's Leicester Square plummeted towards zero.

Even though she's a star herself, Beyonce still gets star-struck in Hollywood and flashes her armpits when she greets other celebrities, instead of giving them a winning smile. The 25-year-old star was so overwhelmed when she saw Diana Ross - who Beyonce's "Dreamgirls" character is loosely based on - that she was too nervous to speak to her.

Apparently, George Michael's New Year's Eve celebration was as good as it gets - with a huge amount of cash in pockets.

It's been said that Michael was paid $2.2 million for a 75 minute private concert on New Year's Eve.

Beyonce may be considered one of the sexiest stars in the world, but the singer has revealed that her sexy persona and onstage moves don't come easily to her.

While she flaunts her body in raunchy music video's and stage performances, the ex-"Destiny's Child" member says that she has created an alter ego named Sasha to bring out that side of her personality.
