The singer, who previously ate a pescatarian diet, explained, "I'm going fully plant-based. It's making me feel better, so there is some truth it... But I do miss a good burger!"

Toni went on to explain how lupus affects her day-to-day life, revealing she has microvascular angina and continues to experience blood clots. She said that despite having great doctors and medication, she has to be careful.

"I can't do five or six shows a week like I used to, but I can do three or four shows," she explained. She also holds back from dancing on stage, joking, "I'm not a dancer but I do the 1-2 electric slide."

The star recently completed her As Long As I Live Tour, in support of her 2018 record, "Sex & Cigarettes".
