Besides Beyonce, Kate Winslet and Emma Bunton what other celebs have a pear-shaped figure?
What are the best methods of losing weight for someone with this figure?
Clothing to make me look slimmer?

Jennifer Lopez, Shakira, Immogen (Big Brother), Tyra Banks, I'm sure there are many more.
Losing weight with this type of figure is tricky, because the weight often tends to come off the top and takes longer to shift from the hips, bum and thighs, making you even more pear shaped. I think the best thing is to tone up the upper body to match the lower half and use pilates of yoga to slim down the lower body.
Clothing that can help give a slimmer appearance are flared out knee length skirts, tops that don't skim over the hips, padded bras, low rise jeans and wearing darker colours on the bottom with brigher colours on top.
HTH : )

Jennifer Lopez is a good example of the pear so is Shakira. Best methods for losing weight when you are a pear is aerobics especially dance aerobics. I mean look at J-Lo and Shakira.

I am pear shaped myself, so I understand.
Walking is one of the best things you can do.
Hiphugger jeans are good, darker bottoms... bring more attention up away from your hips with a nice pair of earrings or a necklace, etc.
EDIT: You are more risk of health problems if you gain weight in your waist/belly than if you gain weight in your butt.... FYI

A pear shaped body (heavier through the abdomen, hips and thighs) has been linked to diabetes, which means high insulin production out of the pancreas (located in the lower abdomen).
You may be that way due to a pre-diabetic condition called hypoglycemia (low blood sugar). For basic information on hypoglycemia, check out www.hufa.org.
For basic information on hyperinsulinemia (high insulin), check out www.mayoclinic.com and search for hyperinsulinemia.
