Jordin Sparks covers Shape Magazine August 2012.  Sparks bikini body looks great as she rocks a two-piece blue bikini.  In the magazine she talks confidence, her struggle with weight loss and more.  Some excerpts from the interview:

 

On why she chose to lose the weight
 
“I just wanted to be healthy. It was just before my 21st birthday. I had walking pneumonia, couldn’t breathe and felt totally fatigued, I remember thinking, ‘I’m in my prime. I should be happy and fit.’ That was the moment when I decided that changes needed to be made."
 
 
On bikini confidence
 
"For me to even be talking about bikini confidence is crazy.  If you had asked me a couple of months ago, I probably would have been like, 'What are you talking about…' So it's actually huge for me to even feel OK with putting a bikini on."
 
Hats off to you.  You are definitely looking amazing.  Hopefully she releases a new album soon, because her music career is looking flatline.  Now if you can get your career in SHAPE, you'd be perfect."

Jordin Sparks V MAGAZINE Remembering WHITNEY HOUSTON

Jordin Sparks V MAGAZINE Remembering WHITNEY HOUSTON 

 

 

Jordin Sparks will be in V Magazine's issue and she has a poignant interview in which she remember Whitney Houston.  The star who co-starred with Whitney, in the up-and-coming movie Sparkle talked to the mag about the time she spent with the legendary with the legendary singer and getting to know her before her death.  

 
 
Part musical, part cautionary tale, the movie tells the story of three sisters, Sparkle, Delores (Tika Sumpter) and Sister (Carmen Ejogo), whose successful Motown singing act disintegrates in the face of drug addiction and familial strife. Originally Houston had signed on solely as exectutive producer, but eventually agreed to also play the girls’ mother, Emma. “I think she was hesitant at first, and then she said, ‘Yeah, I really want to do that,” says Sparks.
 
On set in Detroit at the first table read, Sparks, who has d worshiped the pop star since childhood, was appropriately tongue-tied. “She walked in and I was like, ‘This. Is. Awesome.’” But over time the two women grew close, bonding over a slavish devotion to the craft-services table and a near constant habit of singing under their breath. “One day, actually, she was walking behind me and singing ‘I Have Nothing,’” recalls Sparks. “And then she reached out and said, ‘I forgot I sang that. I was annoyed that day and just didn’t ant to do it. We ended up doing it in three takes!’”
 
When Houston died unexpectedly in February, Sparks (who attended her memorial service) was grief-stricken. “She was always so full of light,” she says, choking back tears . “Every day… she would open the door and ask, ‘How are my babies this morning? Are my babies good? God is good. Praise the Lord.’”
 
Still Sparks has no illusions about the demons that plagued her late costar (and, ironically, some of the films characters). “I can see how people can fall and people can flip or they can just get in with the wrong crowd.”
 
 
The movie will debut August 17, 2012.
