The sunny season is right around the corner and people are doing the most to make sure their summer bodies are in check, including Tiny Harris. The 4'11" R&B singer has been working the promotion rounds for the new season of T.I. & Tiny: Friends & Family Hustle and avoiding the drama between her husband and rapper Kodak Black, and she recently shared that she's spending much of her time trying to get her body right and tight.

“Honestly, semi-pescatarian, because I just started eating meat a little bit,” she said as she explained her diet plan. “I feel like a little bit of anything in moderation is okay.” Pescatarians don't eat meat, but they do include fish in their diet. “I don’t really eat out," she added.

“I do plan on working out a lot, because I wanna be summertime fine,” she said. “I was boxing, and I do want to get back into boxing [again] and working out more. — That’s the plan.” Celebrity trainer Kory Phillips was responsible for her intense boxing workouts in 2017, and Tiny hopes to get back to toning up her frame with Phillips sometime soon.

“I’ve done this before, and I showed myself that I could do it. So, I know later, if I ever want to do it again, I could do it,” Tiny said of her boxing training. However, she admits that it's challenging because she spends most of her time chasing around her three-year-old, Heiress. “It’s hard with a baby!”, she says, adding, "She's the queen of the house."
