Singer Anastacia feels even more womanly now than she did before her battle with breast cancer.
The Made For Lovin' You star, who was diagnosed with the disease in 2003, knows breast cancer can destroy a woman's sense of femininity.
But Anastacia insists she has smashed the damaging stigma attached to the disease.
She says: "Strange though it is, I feel more feminine now than I ever did.
"I absolutely feel sexy and radiant, and I wouldn't have thought that would be the situation after having such a shameful disease as cancer has become. I'd love to change that image."
