Katy Perry Talks Fave Snacks, Hot Body Secrets and How She Unwinds

Katy Perry is no stranger to the spotlight, having hit the Hollywood scene almost five years ago now. Perry, who walked the orange carpet (and won Best Female Singer!) at the Kids' Choice Awards this past weekend, wowed onlookers with her midriff-revealing, two-piece ensemble from Herve Leger -- and her enviable figure. Fortunately for us, we not only have her all-over toning move in our back pocket, but a few more of her hot body secrets to share now, too.

The songstress is often on tour -- or traversing the globe for events -- and spends many late nights working. When she returns to her hotel room, girl can be hungry. (And who could blame her?) Her fave midnight snack? PopChips. Not only did Perry recently become a spokeswoman for the brand (whose addictive chips have half the fat of regular ones), but she also just launched her own Kettle Corn flavor, which, if we do say so ourselves, is delicious.

But we know the "Part of Me" singer has more tricks up her sleeve when it comes to looking good for regular press appearances beyond skipping french fries for PopChips. Perry told us that even when she doesn't have the energy, she "knows that working out will give me the energy I need, which motivates me." (Need to amp up your energy levels? Eat these foods.) And if all else fails? "I'll have a double-espresso shot to get me going," Perry added.

So when she needs to look her best (like she did this weekend), Perry cuts out as much bread, sugar and pasta, and opts for water with lemon instead of drinking sugary sodas or juices. Add in regular workouts 3 or 4 times per week, supplementing with fun extras like hiking or spinning at SoulCycle, and you've got the recipe for Perry's sleek physique.

And when it's all said and done, Perry likes nothing more than to relax alone with her cats, or visit one of her fave spas (right now she's a big fan of Ole Henriksen and Kate Somerville) for a facial. She also practices transcendental meditation. We're digging your super-chill vibe, Katy!
