Apparently Leona has now lost a stone in weight after record bosses suggested she “shape-up” before the launch of her new album.

According to a source close to former X Factor winner, Leona managed to gain weight over the summer while she was recoding her album, which is called Echo, by feasting on large portions of junk food. A source said:

'In LA she used to binge on curry, macaroni cheese and her favourite Thai takeaway, all delivered to the studio. American portions are so big it's hard not to put on weight and Leona loves every kind of food that's bad for you.

'The label bosses weren't happy with her weight gain and told her to shape up for her album launch.'

Well we thought she looked perfectly fine beforehand, but that’s just our humble opinion…
