On a British morning show, Beyonce said she went on “a liquid diet where you lose weight really fast" in order to slim down for her role in the upcoming film Dreamgirls. She cautioned, "I would not recommend it if someone wasn't doing a movie, because there are other ways to lose weight. But I need to lose it really quick.�?

Knowles rubbished rumors that she prefers the skinnier look and has kept the weight off since filming. She said, “I put the weight back on as soon as I finished, so I am no smaller or bigger than I've always been. It was strictly for the movie…The funniest part was putting the weight back on and eating my doughnuts and all the other things. So now I'm back to my body. I'm very conscious of being a curvy woman and I'm very happy that I am a curvy woman."
