The size-8 singer attributes her svelte shape in part to something called the Power Plate

Stevie Nicks doesn't need so much black frilly lace anymore.

The 60-year-old Fleetwood Mac singer says she has dropped 60 pounds off her highest weight thanks to a new workout gadget.

Plus she doesn't take so many tranquilizers.

"When I gained my [first] 30 lbs., it was because I went on tranquilizers for eight years," Nicks told People Magazine on Monday. "I don't blame myself for that. I would have stayed at 125 pounds from 1985 and [later on] probably would have weighed about 130 pounds."

The size-8 singer attributes her svelte shape in part to something called the Power Plate, which she says she uses 13 minutes every other day.

Plus she's touring with Fleetwood Mac for the first time in five years, which also helps her keep off the pounds.
