Ellie Goulding Reveals Secret Behind Body Transformation

She's been at the centre of surgery rumours but Ellie Goulding has finally revealed the secret of her new slimline figure. The Lights singer raised eyebrows in recent months by ditching her urban look for sexy outfits that leave little to the imagination. However, she has continually defended her change of image and this week confirmed that her newfound confidence had come from ditching meat and embracing vegetarianism. "I put it down to eating amazingly well. I've been vegetarian for six months and now my body's different, my skin is different, my face shape is different, and my eyes are brighter, too," said the 27-year-old. "Before I had a flat bum, no boobs and not much shape. I'm way more womanly now. I'm a bit more confident with my body. I've got a belly, boobs and a bum." The blonde singer, who is rumoured to be dating McFly star Dougie Poynter, told The Sun that she doesn't mind if she develops more muscle with her fitness regime and thinks people should aspire to have a stronger body. "I would want to be strong instead of weak any day, even if I am a girl. And if I was a bloke, I'd want to be with someone who looked after their body. I don't think athletic women are praised enough, and that should change."
