Los Angeles - Sam Smith received dieting advice from Beyoncé.
The Lay Me Down singer has revealed he asked the Bootylicious hitmaker for tips on how to eat more healthily before shedding three stone over the last few months.
He said: "I did have a conversation with Beyoncé about food, which was great."
The 22-year-old star failed to mention whether he'd signed up to the 33-year-old beauty's vegan food delivery service but he has been put on a strict diet by celebrity nutritionist Amelia Freer and is no longer allowed to eat gluten, sugar or processed food.
Sam admits he made the decision to revamp his diet and fitness regime after seeing photographs of himself on holiday in Australia.
According to The Sun newspaper, he said: "I fucking hated that. I don't want to be the perfect pop star, I'm far from that. But I saw that picture and thought, 'I hate how I look'."
Earlier this year Sam boasted about how he'd managed to shed more than a stone in two weeks and "completely transform" his relationship with food thanks to Amelia and her book Eat. Nourish. Glow.
