Singer Anne-Marie has been heralded by fans after she posted a body positive photo of herself on her Instagram profile. The '2002' hitmaker took to the social media site to share a snap of herself in a red bikini, captioning it with a quote from Jason Vale who's a motivational speaker and lifestyle coach.

The caption read, 'People of the world. I encourage you to love your body. Take care of it. Treat it well. Show it off. Be strong. Feed it. Water it. If you don’t look after your body, you will have nowhere to live ~ Jason Vale.'

Fans were absolutely loving the post by 27-year-old Anne-Marie, who has always been open and honest about her body issues in the past. Many wrote messages of adoration for how beautiful she looked in the snap, and other congratulated her for being brave.

One wrote, 'She uses her power to make people feel good about themselves. She’s never ever said 'my body is perfect and everyone has to look like me to be beautiful'. In fact she does the opposite and tells people to love and accept their 'flaws' and embrace them', as another quoted her new song 'Perfect To Me' by writing, 'I'm ok with not being perfect, 'coz that's perfect to me.'

This isn't the first time Anne-Marie has encouraged her fans to be body confident - last August, she told the Huffington Post, "It could take a year, a month, three years. Don’t feel like you’ve failed because you don’t feel better immediately."

Anne-Marie recently worked with The X Factor's James Arthur on a cover of 'Rewrite The Stars' from The Greatest Showman, and he gushed over Anne-Marie's "down-to-earth" personality.

He said, "We tried to re-enact the whole walk in on the film and ballroom dance, and I can't do any of that sort of stuff so she was trying to teach me. She was wicked, salt of the earth, a really down to earth person."
