Nelly – who is married to sound engineer Demacio Castellon and has a six-year-old daughter, Nevis, from a previous relationship – took a two-year break after she finished promoting her 2006 album Loose and says she was enjoyed having the time to lead a more normal life.

“Unlike Madonna, I wouldn’t be willing to do Pilates round the clock, just to slow down the deterioration of my body. I prefer to sit in the kitchen, drink tea and eat biscuits,” he explained to Germany’s Petra Magazine. “After the tour I was terribly exhausted and had to find a way back to a healthy routine. I cooked chicken soup for my family and just enjoyed everyday life. The small things that make you happy are important to me.”

The Portuguese/Canadian singer-songwriter, 30, has revealed that she when she was 22 she was courted for a nude centerfold by Playboy founder Hugh Hefner. Nelly turned down the offer down, but added that she would not mind posing at a later time.

“The magazine was even prepared to pay me 500,000 dollars to pose with my clothes on. I didn’t want Playboy on my resume at the age of 22,” she told The Mail on Sunday. “If they ask me when I’m 40 I’ll probably say yes,” she added.

Nelly recently released her first Spanish-language album.
