Dick Clark's New Year - Mariah Carey

I was just wondering if any caught this? On the radio the other morning the host of the show mentioned how Mariah looked too overweight to wear what she wore, and how she had gained weight, and the other hosts agreed saying, no problem with the weight, but she was too old to wear what she did. I was surprised to see callers were agreeing!

I saw the show, and I didn't think Mariah looked overweight, maybe she is heavier than before. I'm just surprised at what seemingly "normal" people (excluding media, etc. where super thin is in) would consider overweight.

I'm curious if anyone else thought she looked overweight and if general society still thinks its good to be really thin?
 
I myself thought that she looked heavier compared to what she looked like previously. With that said #1 I think she looks fine as long as you are healthy and take care or yourself. #2 I think beauty is in the eye of the beholder ( as well as what people think is thin and heavy.

Having been heavier myslef I can appreciate how your weight can go up and down. She is older now, has delt with a few personal things(so I heard) and that can take a toll on anyone. More importatly I love the way she sings. Thinner or heavier I love her voice. Personaly I didn't hate her outfit I just didn't like the fact that her breasts looked as if they were going to pop out. Would I have worn that NO!!! but to each his own taste. Karen

I didn't see it, but I've seen Mariah in clothes that she's stuffed herself into. It's like she should wear a size 8 to look good, but she feels she has to wear a size 4! I think she makes herself look heavier that way.

How was Dick Clark? I'd heard that he was still having trouble speaking from his stroke and they were wondering if he'd be up to doing the show.
 
Mariah has definitely put on weight, but that is not the issue. Her monumental bad taste and self-absorption is the problem. She wears trashy clothes that are too small/young/exposed for her. She's not 19 anymore. She is so obsessed with her own boobs it's embarassing - watch her - anytime she's on camera she is pushing her chest out, pulling her hair back so she exposes her chest. She poses. I only saw clips, but her behavior made her look crazy. Ugh - I'm very over her.
 
I didn't see the show.I don't think she is overweight but I think she isn't as skinny as "hollywood" wants/thinks she should be.
She does tend to gain weight and I think that she as to work at it to keep her figure.Nice to know she is normal.
This being said, I usually turn the channel when she is on t.v

Dick Clark did very well, I thought, given how seriously ill he must have been to be out of the limelight for over a year. It was rather gutsy of him to do what he did, and I'm sure he was an inspiration to a lot of stroke victims.

As far as Mariah Carey - she was being her, dressed for to show off, but the someone should have talked her out of wearing that outfit. She is constantly, "on," isn't she? Having said that, I was impressed with the way she helped that little Hawaiian boy singer on the Oprah show last year. Did any of you out there in Cathe-land catch that?
Just Do It! :)
 
I didn't see the show either, but I have seen her recently and have noticed she has put on some weight. so what. That's not a big deal, if she's healthy, good for her. I don't like when she stuffs herself in those clothes though, give it up Mariah...

She'd look much, MUCH better if she dressed in clothes that fit her, and she could still look sexy if she wanted too.

I could not agree with that statement more!!!! I don't think it matters how she looks of if she has gained weight, it is how she acts and she isn't acting classy. I was at a party and we all had our jaws dropped. We could not believe the way she was treating the cameras. Unbelievable!

Yup :)

Precisely..,.this more than anything, annoyed me on NYE.

She was a little heavier than in the past (but not "heavy" at all!)but that was totally enhanced by her outfit she wore. The outift was basically nothing more than a rhinestone bathing suit with little fringy things that came from her waist to upper thigh. I actually thought that she loked good b/c her curves were back but she acted like TOTAL MORON.
 
I was shocked when I saw her, I thought she looked alot larger and the outfit didn't look good on her with the extra weight. If I was her, I would have worn something more classy than that. I do think society still thinks it is good to be thin, most celebrities have perfect bodies and most people look at them as what everyone should look like. I think people need to be at a weight that is healthy, not necessarily skinny, and they need to be fit. I have heard very large people say that they are comfortable with their bodies and it doesn't bother them to be fat, I don't believe that for one minute.

I thought she looked a little too heavy to be wearing this outfit, too.

What I just don't get is, the two women who would least need to dress so cheesy because their voices are so powerful are her and Christina Aguilera, and they both wear the least amount of clothing usually. It's sad.

I saw Mariah last night on The Ellen DeGeneres show and I couldn't believe how HUGE she got. AND she was wearing a leotard-type top with tight-fitting pants that just accentuated her size. Her face was quite plump as well. With all of her money, why wouldn't she get started with a personal trainer. And carrying that kind of weight, I wouldn't be caught dead in those clothes - I would rather try to HIDE my weight. It's also amazing how her videos show her as slim!!!!! Hopefully, she will see herself and start to do something about it and NOT wait and become another Kirstie Alley.

I cringe when I see her. She becomes the" I cant believe she wore that" topic at the water cooler. She is in her mid thirties and she should stop act and dressing like Brittany Spears. Those days are over for her and she should realize that. She needs to dress more sophisticated and stop dressing like a street prostitute.

Also, her clothes has to be sewn on to her body. That says it all. She's like a too tightly wrapped sausage. She's rich... why can't she hire a stylist. Or better yet, get a Cathe DVD to workout to so she can looking like pork leg.
