Mariah Carey is Airbrushed to the Nth Degree (Photos)

Posted on: March 3rd, 2008 by: Meg0 comments

Mariah Carey is clearly being enchanced these days by the heavy hand of an airbrush. We’ve got photos of the singer with and without benefit of technology for comparison purposes below.

Carey’s weight ballooned in 2006 and the singer stated that she liked her rounder curves. She has slimmed down considerably since then but still has fairly stout thighs – but not after the airbrush does a little touchup. She’s also got those apple cheeks that seem to have disappeared in the Allure magazine cover photo above. The April issue, featuring Mimi will hit newsstands shortly.

In mid-2006, Carey began working on her eleventh studio album E=MC2 which will be released on April 15, 2008. The lead single titled Touch My Body was digitally transmitted to radio stations on February 12, 2008. The album cover is cleverly shaded to give the singer’s legs a very slim appearance, as seen in one of photos below.

Check out the photos after the jump and decide for yourself.
