10 unforgettable celeb diets through the years

Beyoncé and Jay-Z are on a vegan adventure. The power couple recently

embarked on a 22-day plant-based challenge. But Queen B and her

sweetheart aren’t the first to experiment with dieting. Take a look back

at some memorable celebrity diets through the years.

Diet 1: Beyoncé the master cleanse

Beyoncé is also famous for completing the Master Cleanse, an all-liquid

diet of cayenne lemon water, to prepare for her role in the 2006

film Dreamgirls. During that time, Beyoncé allowed herself a cheat day

to indulge in pizza and wine.

Diet 2: Marilyn Monroe two raw eggs whipped in warm milk

Eggnog for breakfast? Miss Marilyn Monroe herself would start her day

with two raw eggs whipped in warm milk. Opting to skip lunch, the pop

culture icon would then consume broiled liver, steak, or lamb and five

carrots for dinner, finished with a decadent hot-fudge sundae

dessert. What do you think the celebs today will think about this diet?

Diet 3: Elizabeth Taylor crazy concoctions

She may be the most beautiful woman in the world, but she did eat

some crazy concoctions. Elizabeth Taylor turned to some unique recipes

to shed some pounds, like cottage cheese with sour cream over fruit, a

peanut butter–smothered steak sandwich, and a “controlled pig-out,”

where she once ate a whole pizza and hot-fudge sundae.

Diet 4: Sarah Michelle Gellar cabbage soup

Sarah Michelle Gellar followed an extreme seven-day plan restricting

most foods except cabbage soup. For this bland, low-calorie quick fix,

Gellar ate the original cabbage soup recipe and alternatively added

vegetables, fruit, milk and yogurt, incorporating lean meat and brown

rice by the end of the week. Do you think you will be able to do that?

Diet 5: Kate Middleton The Dukan Diet

Kate Middleton took a cue from the French and slimmed down for the

Royal Wedding with The Dukan Diet. After an initial kick start of straight

protein and vegetables, the regimen is broken into three phases that get

less strict week by week, with variations depending on how many pounds

you’re trying to shed.

Diet 6: Lady Gaga baby food diet

How did Lady Gaga purée her pounds away? The singer is rumoured to

have tried Tracy Anderson’s baby food diet, a plan that replaces your

first two meals of the day with Gerber’s baby food, followed by a health-

conscious dinner.

Diet 7: Madonna macrobiotic diet

Madonna has followed the extremely strict and rigorous macrobiotic

diet, which eliminates all wheat, eggs, meats and dairy. What’s left? The

diet encourages the consumption of “sea vegetables.”

Diet 8: Gwyneth Paltrow gluten-free, mildly vegan diet

As the story goes, after being diagnosed with food allergies Gwyneth

Paltrow has since committed herself to all things “good,” ultimately

eliminating bread, red meat, cow’s milk, eggplants, and even tomatoes

from her diet. She starts her mornings off with a green juice and

maintains a gluten-free, mildly vegan diet throughout the day.

Diet 9: Megan Fox The 5-Factor Diet

In order to flush out water weight and cleanse her system, Megan

Fox throws back shots of apple cider vinegar. Moreover, the actress has

also been known to practice a program based on the book The 5-Factor

Diet by Harley Pasternak, which consists of making five-ingredient

meals in less than five minutes.

Diet 9: Victoria Beckham the alkaline diet

Victoria Beckham raves about the alkaline diet, a meal plan aimed at

keeping your body's pH between 7.35 and 7.45. Essentially, to be alkaline-

friendly you follow an 80/20 rule of more vegetables and less grains and

proteins.
