Jordin Sparks debuted bangs and her slimmed-down body on the red carpet Wednesday night in New York City. The singer kept her hair naturally curly and paired the style with bright red lips and matching red nails.
Shortly before the event, Sparks tweeted a photo of her hair , writing, “New hair!!! What do you think?”
Sparks also talked with the New York Daily News recently about her weight loss and living healthier. The 23-year-old dropped 50 pounds last summer. She explained the trials she went through before reaching this stage of her life, saying:
“In December of this year it will be three years since I got really sick. It was then that I made the decision ‘I’m supposed to be in the prime of my life. This changes right now.’ And I really started making my health a priority.”
And considering her spunk and amazing figure, Jordin Sparks has achieved her goals. She explained, “I don’t get sick as much anymore. I feel better, I have more energy, I sleep better, everything is better.”
And that “everything” includes her relationship with boyfriend and R&B singer Jason Derulo , also 23. Derulo nearly paralyzed himself during a stunt for his Future History World Tour last year. With Sparks by his side, the singer made a full recovery from the serious neck injury. Sparks recalled:
“It’s incredible because he was pretty fit before he broke his neck but literally as soon as the doctor said he could be in the gym, which was maybe like a month after, he was there. He couldn’t run but he could lift really light weights, and he was there on a stationary bike with 5-pound weights.”
His drive to get back in shape made Jordin Sparks want to do the same. The result? A fit, active couple. While there’s no word on whether Derulo approves of Sparks’ new bangs, we’re certain he already gave his thumbs up. Earlier in the day, the singer tweeted out a sweet quote, which Sparks retweeted. He wrote:
“I laugh, I love, I hope, I try, I hurt, I need, I fear, I cry I know u do the same things too. So we’re really not that different, me u.”
