Jamelia has admitted that she never visits the gym to maintain her figure despite having had two children.

The pop singer has revealed that she was asked to record a fitness video during her pregnancy last year, but turned the offer down as she hated the thought of exercising that much.

She told The Sun: “Someone offered me an obscene amount of money for me to do a fitness video while I was pregnant. Let me get one thing straight, I’ve got no ambition to ever do a calendar shoot or be on the front page of a newspaper in a bikini, and I never ever go to the gym."

The 25-year-old added: “If I did a fitness video it would mean that I’d really have to work out and I’d have to look as if I’d been going to the gym. So I turned it down. I said, ‘I’m ever so sorry but there is no amount of money you could offer me to go and do a fitness video.’”
