Ex-Destiny’s Child singer Michelle Williams has revealed her latest efforts to try and gain weight as she believes she is “too skinny”.

The singer has always had a lean figure, but claims that her participation on British show ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ has kicked her metabolism into overdrive.

"My metabolism has changed. It burns food quicker these days. I'm 120 pounds, but yes, I'm too skinny,” she explained. “I've always been like that. Growing up, I was so skinny - I was always skinny, skinny, skinny.

"I've always wanted to be a little bigger, so now I'm eating lots of pasta and rice. I want to gain weight. I was on a leaner diet of fish, chicken and turkey. I need some steak! I've lost too much weight on my diet.

"I'd like to have a figure like Halle Berry's. She's in really good shape - not too muscular, but very feminine and sexy."
