Everyone is probably wondering how Mariah Carey lost 20 pounds and three sizes.
Here’s the answer…
She probably didn’t.
Yes, Mariah Carey has slimmed down a bit recently. However, the “before” photo on the cover is from October of 2006! Could they not find a more recent photo of her looking 20 pounds heavier?
Apparently not…
Also, here is a “real” photo of Mariah Carey from just last week, performing at Universal City in Hollywood, CA:
Hmm, does she look remotely like her “after” image on the cover?
Nope!
So to sum up, we’ve got a “before” photo that is 1 1/2 years old, and a heavily photoshopped “after” image.
Do you still think Mariah Carey has recently lost 20 pounds?
These tabloid weight loss cover claims are getting more ridiculous each month… it’s a well known fact that weight loss cover stories sell more magazines. After all, with obesity rates skyrocketing, everyone wants to get their hands on the diet secrets of the rich, skinny and famous… (Too bad we won’t find their true skinny secrets in these magazines!)
