******UPDATE: We might have some answers! See what diet and fitness experts had to say.******

An internet buzz abounds about the so-called (and seemingly mythical) Def Jam Diet. The New York Post's Page Six reports that when Beyonce gains weight, she turns to the Def Jam Diet. Regarding her rumored pregnancy:

"She has gained a lot of pregnancy weight," a source said. "When she gains weight, she normally does the Def Jam detox, but not now."

Live Daily holds another mention of this elusive Def Jam Diet:

Music's A-listers were on hand to celebrate L.A. Reid's 50th birthday at Nobu 57 in New York City, July 11th.

There was Jay-Z, looking so slim some started whispering about a "Def Jam Diet." One partier noted, "L.A. has lost a lot of weight. So has Jay, Jay's girlfriend Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Reid's p.r. woman Laura Swanson and Def Jam publicist Jana Fleischman. It's amazing. It's like a whole new skinny company."

Diet drugs or just drugs and plastic surgery. But of course celebs will deny all.

It may not exist as well.

I wanna see Arianna in a Bikini like that,

[CosmicRocker]

uh....ah,,,er,,,..you see, it's,,,,
I keep looking at the picture....i can't seem to speak.

[TheInsomniac]

That photo is actually unnaturally attractive. I am convinced that there is no way Beyonce actually looks like that. It's almost a caricature of beauty.

[nellie]

I think it's probably a steady diet of Def Jam music that keeps her dancing and moving. I go on a diet of Brazilian music once in a while. I always lose weight.

[jgalvan]

I heard it was a mixture of watermelon juice, redbull, two scoops of lime jello and 1tb. meth.

[txgal44]

Why did I click on this?!!! Dumb.

[CosmicRocker]

eye candy??

[SifSkade]

Meth and Hennessey VSOP?

[kentay305]

sif now that sounds like the euroamerican hollywood version of orange juice...

"Explained"

Basically, the article states that the "Def Jam Diet" could be x or y and quotes "does anyone know what it is?"

That doesn't sound like much of an explanation to me. Thanks for the misleading headline.....again.

[WRPrintz]

Having just lost 80lbs myself, I am nearly ashamed that I even decided to look at this article.....the secret is eating less, and working out more.

The end.

However, your point on the headline is a good one....pure schlock move H.P. We expect better.

[ArmchairPatriot]

Agreed. Someone needs to put an end to the writing of so many misleading headlines if HuffPo wishes to be taken seriously. After all, this is not the New York Post.

[h20bird]

But no! Misleading headlines get more clicks! Clicks > Credibility.

[Madampotential]

Beyonce is not on def jam, I think huffpost wanted an excuse to put up a pic of Bee in a swimsuit.

[LoRiseAntlers]

Wow.Any excuse to get more clicks.

[H.L. Mencken]

I am not being chase! I will return when there are serious posters

[TheInsomniac]

C'mon. Why was my fried chicken and collard greens comment deleted? Get a sense of humor for christ's sake. I could have said pork rinds and chitlins.

[ENK727]

Why are so many comments always deleted from this website. Whatever happened to free speech?? Guess Liberals don't really like that. When I see how they delete so many posts, I just don't want to even visit this website anymore.

[H.L. Mencken]

Your puerile poster should learn some respect for other posters with opinions! Fortunately I do not heed too bullying! If the poster were brave enough to state what he said to my face he would summarily be knocked on his disgusting ass!

[sheila]

i think it's the diet where def jam refuses to pay anyone but their biggest marquee artists, so they starve? that's my experience, anyway.

[TERRYKEITH4]

If that happened to you then you are most likely untalented and got used as a filler.

[dutchgirl55]

Jealous? Sounds like you're the one who's untalented.

[sheila]

yeah, cuz everybody knows only the most talented musicians get paid, right?

and what exactly does "used as a filler" mean? i know you were trying to hurt my feelings, but it just made me laugh. thanks!

[situationcritical]

Don't worry Sheila. I believe you. At least Suge Knight didn't hang you off an 11th story apartment building holding a pen and a contract under your hand.

[Mizfitz]

I think they still call it COCAINE

[Rule Of Law]

Yeah--cocaine and silicone. What a silly waste of bandwidth this article is....
