Although her new film is overshadowed by the tragic death of Whitney Houston, Jordin Sparks had plenty to smile about at the premiere of her new film Sparkle. Jordin, who co-starred in the film alongside the late I Will Always Love You singer, was showing off her dramatic 22kg weight loss at the premiere. But despite her huge accomplishment, Jordin was quick to acknowledge Whitney at the premiere saying she was honoured for the chance to work with her.

“The biggest thing I took from Whitney was you’re never too big to sit down with somebody. You’re never too big to say ‘hello’ or to smile at someone,” says Jordin.
“She would sit and talk like we had known each other for years. For that example to come from a superstar, somebody I idolised, was just amazing.”
A health scare in 2010 (above) meant that Jordin Sparks no longer takes her health for granted
Jordin admitted that a health scare in 2010 promoted her to lose the weight.
“I was just like, “I am not going to take my health for granted anymore. This changes right here, right now.
“I was really evaluating what I was eating, when, and why I was eating it. I love food and so I was just eating because it tasted good. I kind of re-evaluated that. Now I definitely listen to my body first,” she says.
