Jennifer Lopez is "terrified" of plastic surgery.
The 44-year-old singer, who has six-year-old twins Max and Emme with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, admits she'll do "whatever it takes" to keep her enviable figure in tip-top condition, but she insists she'd never go under the knife to maintain her youthful looks.
When asked if she'd ever have cosmetic surgery, she replied: "I'm terrified of anything like that, like going under, I would be like, 'No, don't put me to sleep.' "
The 'On the Floor' hitmaker admits she has to work hard at achieving her famously shapely derrière, but she believes anyone can do it if they workout and eat healthily.
Speaking in an interview on the Jules, Merrick and Sophie with Mel B Show on Australian radio station 2DayFM, she said: "[You can achieve a good butt with regular upkeep] little by little - as opposed to letting it get away and pulling it back with a knife. I think you can do it with eating healthy things and working out ... I've always been quite an athlete. From very young, I used to run track and do tennis. For me, it's always about getting into the gym or getting out there and just running outside - whatever it takes to kind of just, keep it all together. I think you can do that with good...you know, eating healthy things and working out, and you don't have to go crazy, you don't have to be a fanatic but just upkeep little by little."
Despite her determination to exercise and main a healthy diet, she admits she sometimes has days where she feels "fat", but deals with it by dressing to suit her mood.
When asked if she has 'fat days', she said: "Oh yeah, oh my God yeah, I mean and I dress for ... you know, when you have those days, you dress for those days. Like, when I wear the really loose ... it's like, maybe we should just wear kind of a tent dress today - but, make it cute."

Jason Priestley claims he once shared a cannabis joint with Sir Mick Jagger.
The former 'Beverly Hills 90210' star met The Rolling Stones rocker at a star-studded awards show after-party in Dublin, Ireland, in 2000.
Jason found himself in Mick and his ex-wife Jerry Hall's hotel suite and shared the herbal drug with the singer and his spouse.
Recalling the experience in his new tell-all book 'Jason Priestly: A Memoir', he revealed: "Mick and Jerry Hall (were) lounging on a bed, passing a joint back and forth ... (My friend) said, 'Hey, Mick, pass it around.' 'So sorry, love,' he said. Then he got up and handed the joint to me; I took a drag and passed it."
Jason also recalls his time living with Brad Pitt in 1987 in Hollywood before they found fame.
The 44-year-old actor reveals he and the fellow heartthrob would have a smelly competition over who could go the longest without washing or shaving.
He said: "Just for fun, we used to have competitions over who could go the longest without showering and shaving. Brad always won. Having to go on an audition meant cleaning up, which is what usually put an end to the streak."

Kiefer Sutherland hid behind a street light to avoid a fan who mocked him after he fell off his bike.
The '24' actor - who reprises the role of Jack Bauer in forthcoming '24: Live Another Day' - fell off his bicycle while riding in Los Angeles and was thoroughly embarrassed to find he'd attracted the attention of those around him.
Talking on 'Late Night with Seth Meyers', he explained: "In Silverlake I was riding my bicycle. This is dorky to begin with, but I have a basket in my bike so I can put my groceries, and I had a friend weld a pole on the back so I can get my dry cleaning. There I am riding down Silverlake, believe it or not in Los Angeles every once in a while they have pedestrian traffic and I seemed to find it that day. So I had to slow way down and I hit a pot hole and I went flying over the handle bars, my laundry went that way [pointing right], my groceries went that way [pointing forward]. I was like 'I'm so embarrassed, I'm humiliated, people are trying to help'. I'm like, 'Leave the stuff alone, I'm so sorry, just don't pay attention.' As I'm doing this some guy drives by and goes, 'Jack Bauer can't ride a bike!' "
Kiefer, 47, didn't anticipate bumping into the stranger as he continued his journey and this time he decided to hide to avoid him, but, to his disappointment he was caught out.
He explained: "I was humiliated and I managed to get all the stuff back on the bike and I'm riding down and then he's stuck at the red light. I don't want to see him because I'm already embarrassed so I'm kinda hiding behind a street light and he yells out, 'I can still see you.' "
However, the situation turned out for the best, with Kiefer adding: "I fell apart laughing and we actually became friends."

Emma Stone meditates every day.
The 'Amazing Spider-Man 2' star suffers with anxious thoughts regularly, but she's able to deal with them by training her mind to relax through the calming technique.
She said: "I just started meditating in January. It's changing my life completely. I'm pretty into it. Once or twice a day, I meditate. That has been the best thing for my mind ... I get so anxious privately."
The 25-year-old actress also believes settling down in Manhattan, New York, will help ease her fearful thoughts because it will create structure and stability for her.
She explained: "I didn't have a house for the past year. I had been renting in New York for about four years. I've been living out of hotels. I'm so excited.
"Forming a routine will help me feel a little less nuts. It's disorienting to not have a home. Forming a routine has been so hard over the last year and a half."
The flame-haired beauty, who is currently dating her co-star Andrew Garfield, insists that although she comes across as confident, it's all an act, but staying focused helps.
She told USA Today: "For some reason, it's never worked for me before, I'm able to separate who I actually am from the box of rats that's going around in my head. Your thought process is not who you are. That's separate monkey chatter mode."

Kevin Connolly has split from his girlfriend.
The 40-year-old actor has called time on his relationship with Lydia Hearst, 29, after just one year of dating, due to their romance fizzling out.
It is believed there was no drama behind the break-up and their relationship was "just done", according to E! News.
However, the couple showed no signs of trouble in paradise last month when Lydia revealed how the pair met through a social networking site.
She told 'Access Hollywood' at the time: "We met through mutual friends and Facebook. Actually, I think I might've hit him up. It was a while ago. It's been over a year. But I love him to death and I'm very happy."
Meanwhile, the 'Entourage' star hasn't had much luck recently after he broke his leg in two places in March when he tripped over a sprinkler while shooting the movie.
Kevin was filming a football scene with Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, who has a cameo in the movie, when he stumbled as he made a play, which resulted in his co-star Jerry Ferrara falling on his leg.
The star - who reprises his role of Eric 'E' Murphy in the movie - immediately iced the injury and went back to work on his next scene shortly afterwards.

Susan Sarandon thinks her granddaughter's birth will be "theatrical".
The 'Stepmom' actress' daughter Eva Amurri Martino and her husband Kyle are expecting their first child together, a baby girl, and are planning for her to be born at home.
Susan said: "Eva's going to deliver at home, so it'll be a very theatrical event."
The 67-year-old star - who also has sons Jack, 24, and Miles, 21, with ex-partner Tim Robbins, as well as Eva, whose father is filmmaker Franco Amurri - also recalled her own pregnancies, and admitted they felt "surreal.
Speaking to America's Closer magazine, she said: "It's such a sci-fi happening. When you're pregnant, it seems surreal until the baby's there."
The 'Lovely Bones' star recently admitted she doesn't want her granddaughter to call her grandma, and will encourage her to call her 'Honey' instead.
She said: "I borrowed this name from a very dear friend of mine who's from the South, and his grandma was 'Honey'.
"That's what I'm experimenting with and Eva likes it, so we'll see.
"I think it's good because this is Kyle's parents seventh grandchild, so they've established what his parents are called."

Shane Warne would love to date Miranda Kerr.
The former cricketer - whose engagement to Elizabeth Hurley ended earlier this year - was delighted to learn a professional matchmaker had paired him up with the Australian model, whose marriage to Orlando Bloom ended last year.
During an appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O show on KIIS FM this morning (02.05.14), presenter Jackie Henderson told him: "Based on all your previous relationships, I have got an assessor to come up with some things that I should be looking for.
"I want to make sure that I'm looking for the right things, so you tell me if what she came up with is correct."
Jackie then listed what she believes Shane looks for in a woman, including confidence, spontaneity, adventure, and above all, someone who takes pride in their appearance.
He exclaimed: "You are on absolute fire at the moment Jackie, everything is a big tick. You must have Ms. Perfect ... the Mrs. Shane or something.'
However, though he praised "wonderful and beautiful" Miranda, Shane said he would have to "check" with his friend James Packer, as the billionaire has been romantically linked with the Victoria's Secret model for the last three months.
He said: "I think I would actually have to ring my friend James first, I'm not sure what's happening there.
"Miranda's a wonderful beautiful person. I'd love to say yes to that but mates come first there, so I'd have to check with James what the situation was. I don't do the dirty on friends...you don't go there."

Hilary Duff has admitted she and Mike Comrie "don't know" what the future holds for them.
The couple - who have two-year-old son Luca together - split in January after three years of marriage, but the 'So Yesterday' singer says they still love one another and suggested they could eventually reconcile.
Hilary - who has enjoyed numerous outings with the hockey player since they split - told E! News: "We're constantly seen together and people are like, 'What are they doing? Are they back together? Are they not?' We're really good friends and we have so much respect for each other and obviously Luca is our number one priority.
"I think we got to a point where we were like, we really need to honour happiness and whatever that is and however we need to sort that out or work that out, we're doing that.
"We love each other so much and we love spending time together. So when you see us out it's not just for Luca, it's because we make plans and we hang out.
"We don't know what our future looks like right now but we're both doing really good and just figuring out what makes us happy."
Hilary recently signed a new record deal, and also has TV projects in the pipeline, but says caring for her son takes up most of her time.
She said: "The busiest thing is that I have a two year old. I'm constantly on the go, it's crazy. He's so much fun."
