Jordin Sparks

American Idol star Jordin Sparks didn’t rush anything on her weight loss battle. For the first four months of her plan, it took a lot of convincing herself to do the hard work. The No Air hitmaker also decided to cut down on unhealthy foods and resist her grandma’s baking.

What prompted her decision was a health scare back in 2010 after her Broadway stint. As a result of her determination, Sparks was able to drop 50 pounds. These days, the singer is in a much better situation as a mom of one who continues to make music with the full support of her loving husband.
