And she's not the only one who loves her new sexy figure. The singer's boyfriend Brandon Blackstock, 35, approves of her changing look. "Brandon is the first guy to ever tell her how beautiful and sexy she is," a source says of the Nashville-based talent manager. "She wants to look good for him."

So what made Kelly want to drop the unwanted pounds? According to an insider, she decided to slim down for good after watching a recording of her December performance on VH1 Divas Celebrates Soul. "She saw how heavy she was and she didn't like it. That's when she decided to really get into shape."
