Interview by Stevie Brown 

Balanced?

John Legend
  
  


Do you take any vitamins or supplements? I take a protein and a creatine supplement and a multivitamin. The protein and creatine help build up muscle for when I work out. The multivitamins help my immune system - well, I hope they do.

Do you prefer healthy food or fast food? Healthy. I eat lean foods, mostly vegetables and fruit.

Have you ever dieted? I am not trying to lose weight but I watch my weight.

Do you exercise? I box, use weights, run and jump rope. I work out about five days a week for about an hour.

How to you chill out? Reading. And I sleep. Right now I am reading The World Is Flat by Thomas L Friedman. It is about globalisation.

What foods do you always have in your trolley? If I go shopping now, it is to make a special meal for my family. I always make macaroni cheese.

Do you smoke? No way. Never.

Do you drink? Only occasionally. It's not good for my voice.

Do you have any vices? No. Absolutely perfect. I don't really want to talk about my vices.

What stresses you out? Making sure my voice is in good shape.

Are you vain? Yes, I am concerned about my appearance. I put effort into how I look.

What are your riders? Water, a tea called Throat Coat for my voice and deli meat.

· John Legend's album, Get Lifted, is out now.
