Pixie recovers for 'V'

Pixie Lott has seemingly made a speedy recovery after reportedly being forced to adopt a radical diet after she was diagnosed with bronchitis. The 'Mama Do' singer had been told to drink iced cucumber and vegetable juice smoothies in a bid to improve her condition ahead of a planned appearance at the V Festival this weekend.

Yesterday she was happy to chow down on Sainsbury Salad as she visited an Essex park with two friends the day after returning from her Asian tour.

"She's been taking this foul green mixture into every interview and slurping it between performances," a source told the Daily Star. "She can't stand the taste, but she's had no choice."

The 18-year-old, who releases new single 'Boys And Girls' on September 7, admitted that she is considering donning a protective face mask in order to avoid spreading the virus. "The Japanese wear a mask if they're ill out of politeness, maybe I should do that? I'd defo look a bit scary," she said.

Lott recently revealed that she is determined to remain down-to-earth in the wake of her quick rise to fame.
