Kylie Minogue slams extreme ‘water diet’ reports

MELBOURNE - Kylie Minogue has lashed out at reports claiming that the singer owes her enviable figure to an extreme water diet.

The Daily Mail reported the singer dropped a dress size for her high-profile appearances on US television.

“She wasn’t overweight,” a source close to the star reportedly said, adding Minogue takes the drastic measures “whenever she’s due to give a high-profile performance or has a photoshoot.”

But Minogue shot back on her Twitter account, calling the claims false and alarming.

“OMG…..media reports that I am on a water diet are not only untrue but irresponsible. No, no, NO!!!!!!” the Herald Sun quoted her as tweeting.

The source reportedly told Heat magazine, “When she wants a treat she freezes the citrus water into ice cubes so it feels like she’s eating a healthy ice lolly.” (ANI)
