Mariah Carey Flaunts Slimmer Figure In Shape Magazine

Mariah Carey’s thirty pounds (in the negative) slimmer body is quite impressive as the mom of twins, Monroe and Moroccan, covers the May issue of Shape in a nautical, of-shoulder midriff top and white bikini bottoms.

“Everyone said I was fat, so I did something about it.”

The megastar, 42, who gained weight due to her problematic pregnancy with her nearly one-year-old twins, credits Jenny Craig as the main culprit for her weight loss as she details in the latest issue.

As she regained her confidence, the “We Belong Together” singer talks about being healthier while promoting her heart stopping ad campaign and caring for hubby Nick Cannon, 31, as he battles a Lupus-type disease.

The couple, who have faced some challenges with their health as of late, was seen yesterday looking upbeat and healthy with their 11-month-old twins visiting R&B talent Alicia Keys and husband producer-rapper Swizz Beatz, according to the Daily Mail.

Mariah showed off her trimmed thighs in flaming red jeans, red strappy heels, and a cream and red print cardigan. Her husband decided to go for a laid back look with an animal print tee, navy cargo shorts, cream sneakers with an oversized flap and an oversized baseball cap cocked to the side.

The family will be celebrating Roc and Roe’s first birthday with a lavish (but, of course!) bash to honor the occasion at the Kids Choice Awards. Maybe the Cannon’s were personally inviting Egypt, Alicia and Swizz’ little boy?

 

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

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.

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.
