Gladys Knight Slims Down on 'Dancing With The Stars'

April 25, 2012

Gladys Knight's run on Dancing With The Stars may have come to an end, but the soulful singer will always have lasting effects from her stint as a dancer. Admitting that she started a diet program just before the latest season of the dance competition began, Knight says she dropped a total of 60 pounds while on the show. 

"[Tristan] helped [by] wearing me out," Knight said, adding that she got help from Freshology's Getslim with the Stars program to lose weight. "You've got to eat healthy and you've got to put a little movement into it." 

To help give her fuel for grueling rehearsals, Knight would have a PowerBar, a protein shake and fruit for breakfast.
