She recently revealed she has been staying fit by doing regular yoga classes

And it seems Sugababes star Amelle Berrabah is keen to show off the results of her exercise regime in a series of crop tops.

The 26-year-old singer opted for a summery grey top and low cut skinny jeans to flaunt her washboard stomach as she enjoyed a day out in London today.

Amelle has been relying on bikram yoga classes - which sees the gymgoer exercise in a specially heated room to raise body temperature and allow deeper stretching of the muscles.

She told Closer magazine recently: 'Bikram yoga is yoga but in a heated room like a sauna. You sweat like mad and toxins pour out of you.

'I swear by it and I think I'm looking pretty good!'

And, clearly proud of her new physique, Amelle has been wearing a series of short tops to show off her enviably flat stomach.

The singer has been busy recently recording the follow-up to the Sugababes most recent EP Sweet 7.

Speaking about the new album, which is due for release later this year, Amelle said: 'We’re keeping to our Sugababes sound but we’re also hoping to try new things too.'

It was reported earlier this year that the band were dropped from U.S. label Roc Nation following disappointing sales of Sweet 7, but Amelle, Jade Ewen and Heidi Range denied the rumours.

They released a statement following reports of a disagreement with Roc Nation which read: 'We just wanted to let our fans know that we had a great time working with Roc Nation to record the album Sweet 7 and massive thanks to those of you who have already bought it.

'However, contrary to some tabloid mis-reporting, we have never been “signed” to Roc Nation for a scheduled album release in America.

'We continue to be signed to Universal Island and are looking forward to some big performance plans across the Summer and also bringing you some new music very soon.'
