According to Hollywood.com, Beyonce took on a strict diet to make sure she lost weight for the film "Dreamgirls".

She said: "I wanted to make a physical transformation because I was playing this role and I wanted to be not Beyonce... It was a big sacrifice. I basically ate vegetables, I had a trainer... I was very healthy.

She added: "I did do a two-week fast but (I took) all the vitamins and nutrients my body needs. I normally wouldn't have done that for Beyonce as a performer, but Dina, as the character, I needed to drop it really fast."
