Mariah Carey To Flaunt Svelte Post Baby Body At 2012 BET Honors

Posted byBy Popular Critic | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

Mariah Carey showed off her slimmed, post baby figure in sizzling full length, red dress while attending the Noble Gift Celebration at the Dorchester Hotel in London.

The charity gala, where Mariah arrived as guest of honor, was hosted by notable celebrities including Eva Longoria and Jermaine Jackson.   Ms. Longoria, who also arrived in a stunning burgundy gown, presented Mariah with the 2011 Noble Gift Humanitarian Award for her efforts in aiding disadvantaged youth. The Noble Gift Gala is an event which celebrates and acknowledges those who help support and foster awareness for children and the empowerment of women throughout the world.

The evening was sparkling with celebrity guest including former supermodel Jerry Hall, and socialites Petra and Tamara Ecclestone. There was even a musical serenade by British singer Leona Lewis.

After giving birth to twins Moroccan and Monroe, Mariah Carey joined Jenny Craig and lost upwards of 70 lbs.   Since shedding her baby weight, Mariah has been frequently spotted flaunting her amazing figure. She was even spotted in a sleek, black number at the event which hugged every curve in just the right places.

Next month Mariah will receive another chance to get glamorous. BET just announced the lineup for its fifth annual BET Honors show in D.C. Mariah will the other honorees Maya Angelou, Stevie Wonder, The Tuskegee Airman, and Spike Lee.

The black-tie gala to be held at Warner Theater on January 14th will be hosted by Gabrielle Union. No doubt Mariah Carey will bring her best!

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
