Kelly Clarkson is looking svelte again! The singer and The Voice judge stunned fans in a tight black dress at the Today show's Citi Concert Series on Friday, June 8. Clarkson, 36, has fought the battle of the bulge in the past, but this week, she revealed a secret health problem had kept her big. Now, the "Since U Been Gone" singer is talking about how a thyroid problem affected her weight—and what she did to make a body transformation. Scroll down RadarOnline.com's gallery for more!
Former American Idol Clarkson has battled weight issues for years—but now, she's slimmed down again. She thrilled onlookers with her Today show appearance in a black dress with a shiny vinyl panel down the front.
The star told host Hoda Kotb that she lost 37 pounds after reading "The Plant Paradox," by Steven Gundry, M.D.
According to Clarkson, losing the weight was actually "a side effect" of following the healthy precepts in the food book by Dr. Gundry.
The tome puts forward the theory that certain plants contain "toxic chemical compounds" that adversely affect our health. Clarkson implied to EXTRA on Thursday, June 7 that her yo-yo look was due to what she had to do for her thyroid disorder.
But now, "I'm not on medicine anymore because of this book. It's basically about how we cook our food, non-GMO, no pesticides, eating really organic," Clarkson said, adding that her losing weight didn't involve exercise!
"I'm not working out! I think people think I'm working out and I'm like, don't think I'm going to come play some sport!' Literally, I haven't worked out at all!" Clarkson crowed on EXTRA about her skinnier shape. Previously, Clarkson had claimed, "I don't obsess about my weight, which is probably one of the reasons why other people have such a problem with it." She raises daughter River Rose and son Remington with husband Brandon Blackstock.
As RadarOnline.com has reported, in the past, Clarkson's weight problem has sparked worries of health danger.
People can be cruel and the singer was once dissed by Fox News star Chris Wallace over her weight. Wallace commented on The Mike Gallagher show in 2015, "Kelly Clarkson's got a lovely voice. She could stay off the deep dish pizza for a little while."
