Jordin Sparks shows off 50lb weight loss with stunning cover shoot

'Battlefield' singer Jordin Sparks has appeared on the cover of Shape magazine to show off her phenomenal 50lb weight loss.

The 22-year-old beauty posed for the photoshoot in a skimpy purple bikini and opened up about her body issues in an exciting new interview.

"I knew I had a long road ahead of me. I was barely working out, and my diet was a mess. I had to address when, what, and how much I was eating. I just wanted to be healthy. I remember thinking, ‘I’m in my prime. I should be happy and fit.’ That was the moment I decided that changes needed to be made."

Sparks also confessed that after committing to a healthy eating plan and exercise regime she saw fantastic results: "The weight really started falling off, and I could see my muscles. It was awesome."
