Nicki Minaj won't work out

Nicki Minaj refuses to work out for fear of losing her famous curves.

The Starships hitmaker admits she hated the way she looked after once undergoing regular exercise sessions because she had started to lose her voluptuous shape - so she hasn't been back to the gym since.

She tells Marie Claire magazine, "I don't work out. I hate it. I don't mean to sound super-lazy. I tried it for a time. I lost my boobs.

"When I feel I need to lose weight, I just change what I eat. I cut carbs and sugar. I'll do water and protein and fruit."

However, that doesn't mean Nicki Minaj isn't aware of the health benefits that come with exercise and she is encouraging her fans, who she affectionately calls "Barbz", not to follow her lead.

She adds, "I do think that you should work out. My doctor tells me that, and I get it. Do cardio, Barbz (sic)."
