Nicola Roberts claims she is "constantly eating".

The 26-year-old singer thinks she is unfairly criticised for her slender frame because she struggles to put weight on and insists she doesn't deliberately strive to be so thin.

She said: “I do have to be conscious about the things I eat. I make sure I’m constantly eating because it’s really hard for me to put weight on. My mum’s the same. She’s stick-thin. If that’s your shape, then that’s the way it is. I could understand if there was a problem and I was trying to be really, really skinny, because then I wouldn’t be a good role model. But when you are naturally that size, what can I do? People find it easier to call someone really skinny, than they do calling people overweight. But it’s just as offensive!”

Despite the criticism, Nicola insists she will carry on wearing figure-hugging clothes because she doesn't want to look "s**t" by hiding herself in unflattering garments.

She told Britain's Star magazine: “I'm naturally small, it’s my frame! I can’t walk around in baggy jumpers to stop people saying I look skinny, otherwise I’d have s**t clothes! I wanna wear a skin-tight dress!”

Gemini:

Someone will steal credit for your work, which is maddening. Drawing attention to the problem will only make you look petty. You're better off accepting the situation with quiet dignity and grace. Move on to the next assignment, but make sure to sign your name to every piece of work that is submitted. Tell your boss what you are doing on a regular basis. You'll sound like a pest, but at least it's better than getting stabbed in the back.More
