AceShowbiz - R&B star Ne-Yo has dropped 30 pounds (13.6 kilograms) after adopting a new vegan diet.
The "So Sick" singer insists he has never been healthier after starting a plant-based diet in 2017, and steadily getting more strict about what he eats.
"I am loving it," he tells Us Weekly. "I genuinely am. It's been about two years. More energy, my face clears up, weight falls off. I lost, like, 30 pounds!"
"Initially, I watched the documentary What The Health, and to put it frankly, it p**sed me off. It really did. I was like, 'Let me get this straight - the person giving you the disease and the person fighting the disease are in bed together? To hell with y'all'."
"Out of spite, I went vegan because I was like, 'Y'all don't care'... A friend told me a plant-based diet could reverse the effects of heart disease, cancer. I had tendonitis in both my knees - two weeks, brand new knees, like it never happened. I kid you not! I love it."
