Angie Stone
Angie Stone won the title of new soul queen after years of hard work and fruitful soul-searching. Her solo career began with two gold-certified albums, Black Diamond and Mahogany Soul. She’s also had a lot of success in the R&B charts, with four top ten albums and ten top ten singles. Overall, Angie has marketed over ten million records globally, with over 9.4 million in the United States.
Given her degree of fame and notoriety, she drew media attention and increased her stress. Stone has often spoken about her weight, which is higher than that of a traditional R&B diva. Angie knew she needed to make changes in her life by joining VH1’s Celebrity Fit Club and embarking on a journey of self-motivation. She’s lost more than 40 pounds and has recently begun a vegan diet. With all her success, she’s grateful to be alive and to be making music till today.
