American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi has stripped again. The last time we saw her almost naked in a gold bikini on last year’s Idol final, this time she went the whole hog for a magazine photo shoot with Allure.

The 39 year old singer songwriter admitted that she battled with binge eating and depression in her twenties but told the magazine that due to her current proper diet techniques, her body is now in its best shape either.

She added:

“Back then I was a size 6 or 8; now, I’m more like a size 2,” she said. “Food is not what I use to anesthetize myself anymore.”

“This shoot was less about beauty than about taking a risk, and showing people a side of me they never have seen.”

One of Kara’s weight loss techniques was to massively reduce her salt intake.

“I can really retain water,” she said.
