Admitting that she ate "so much" duringher pregnancy, Shakira says that she has since stepped up her exercise routineand is watching what she eats in a bid to get back to her pre-baby weight. "Itjust takes discipline and commitment and a little bit of self-restraint withfood, which I love so much. But you know I still eat a lot, but just eatnutritious food and not anything excessively fattening or stuff likethat," she explains. "I just keep an eye on what I eat and exerciseregularly."

As for her exercise routine, Shakira likes variety."I change it up every day so I don't get bored," she adds. "I doa little bit of boxing, some dancing, sometimes tennis or I go to thegym."

Though the Colombian beauty looked chic in a blackblazer, shorts and platformChristian Louboutin boots during the interview, she insists her day-to-daystyle is a lot more relaxed. "If it was up to me, I would just wear jeansand t-shirts, even to red carpets, but then no-one would photograph me so thatwould make me very sad," she laughs. "So you know, I've gotta keep upwith the rest of the female population and sometimes try a little harder."

The "WakaWaka" singer also shared the details of her "very simple"beauty routine. "I don't overcomplicate things much more than what theyare because I don't have the time to go to spas and get beauty treatments orstuff like that. That's not made for people like me who are so busy rightnow," she mentions. "What I do is I remove my make-up every night, use alittle bit of Vitamin C serum and that's it pretty much. Of course I use my 3DWhite products!"
