Beyonce Reveals Her Pregnancy Weight
Beyonce revealed that she weighed 195 pounds at her heaviest during her pregnancy to Blue Ivy and she worked really hard to lose the baby weight.
She said that she had lost 65 pounds after giving birth to her daughter. The singer said that she wanted to show off her curves and dance moves like she had before she had her child. "Just because you become a mother doesn't mean you lose who you are," said in her documentary, Liberation.
"I was very aware of the fact I was showing my body," Beyonce said in the video segment. "I was 195 pounds when I gave birth. I lost 65 pounds. I worked crazily to get my body back and I wanted to show my body."
Her motivation to show her body was this: "I wanted to show that you can have a child, and you can work hard, and you can get your body back!"
One of her sexiest music videos to date is her song Partition. She revealed her motivation for the music video was to perform for Jay Z. "The day I got engaged was my husband's birthday and I took him to Crazy Horse and I remember thinking, 'Damn, these girls are fly.' And I just thought it was the ultimate sexy show. I wish I was up there, I wish I could perform that for my man...so that's what I did for my video."
The performer is proud of her sensuality as she explained: "I know that finding my sensuality and getting back into my body - being proud of growing up - it was important to me that I expressed that in this music because I know that there are so many women that feel the same thing after they give birth."
"You can have your child and still have fun, and still be sexy, and still have dreams and live for yourself. I don't have any shame about being sexual."
