Jordin Sparks has admitted her biggest problem is “forgetting to eat”.

The 21-year-old R&B singer and American Idol winner has an enviable figure, which she maintains by getting plenty of exercise rather than adhering to faddy diets.

The gorgeous star finds her hectic showbiz lifestyle does sometimes prevent her from eating though, but she has found a way to combat the problem in the form of a tasty health-food bar.

“Something now is forgetting to eat just in general because things get so crazy,” she explained to the American edition of OK! magazine.

“Just moving so fast, and forgetting to eat. That’ s something I need to watch because it’s very important to make sure you get your nutrition throughout the day, so it’s really nice to be able to have these Quaker Chewy granola bars because they’re great for on-the-go and I can take them in my pocket.”

The star burns so many calories with all her various sporting pursuits that she can justify indulging in her favourite food. Jordin considers herself a food connoisseur, and appreciates the important of quality cuisine.

“You’re burning more, which means you’re hungry more, so I get to have a lot of great food,” she added. © Cover Media
