  • <b>Mariah Carey</b> <br /><br /> Tick-tock, tick-tock! Mariah laughs in the face of time with her unique colour-coded diet, which is said to help turn back the ageing clock. The pop diva makes sure she munches on purple foods three days a week to ward off wrinkles. Purple fruit and veg are packed with antioxidants that have youth-preserving properties and also help to lower the risk of cancer and heart disease. <br /> <br /> <b>Glamour says:</b> The best foods to eat are blueberries, blackcurrants, black grapes, purple spouting broccoli, beetroot and plums. Aim for at least three servings each every day to reap the benefits.
  • <b>Britney Spears</b> <br /> <br /> In a bid to shape up for the MTV Video Music Awards, Britney satisfied her sugar cravings with Hoodia lollipops, which contain a special blend of herbs to curb a sweet tooth and boost energy levels. Telling friends she’d “do anything” to lose weight, Britney reportedly even puffed away on an asthma inhaler to stop hunger pangs! <br /> <br /> <b>Glamour says:</b> Britney’s oddball dieting habits won’t help her lose weight in the long run, and using an inhaler when she doesn’t need one is downright dangerous. Following a balanced diet and taking regular exercise is the only way Brit will ever beat the bulge.
  • <b>Ashanti</b> <br /> <br /> Ashanti followed in the footsteps of Beyonce to get super svelte for her latest movie role and promotion of her new album. The R and B star went on the Master Cleanse programme – an extreme diet based around a cocktail of water, lemon juice, maple syrup and cayenne pepper, to be drunk whenever hunger pangs strike. <br /> <br /> “I did the lemon-pepper-maple syrup diet for seven days,” says the singer. “When I got really hungry, I ate fruit. I lost four kilos and kept it off.” <br /> <br /> <b>Glamour says:</b> This diet claims to dissolve and eliminate toxins at the rate of two pounds per day, but most of the weight you lose will be water, meaning that once the diet’s over, you’ll put the weight (and possibly more) back on. A tough (and not very tasty) quick fix we’d rather avoid.
