Mariahs's Fake Abs - You Make the Call

Remember when I told you that I thought that Mariah Carey looked like she had painted on her abs for her 4th of July Macey's performance?

I thought it was just a funny little item and was surprised when it was picked up here, here, here, and a bunch of other places.

The July 25, 2005 issue of US Weekly even has the story in it's This Minute You Want to Know About section.

The piece, Did Mariah Fake Her Six-Pack? brings everyone up to speed: "Sure, Mariah Carey's back on top of the charts, but who knew her stomach muscles were also making a comeback?" The author then asks a make-up expert and a rep for Mariah Carey to weigh in on the subject.

The make-up artist [Sally Blenkey-Tchasova, owner of one of the places that started the whole "spray-on" craze] was quoted as saying, "It looks like she was helped by make-up or air-brush tanning. Even if a woman is really ripped, abs are generally not that symmetrical."

You're probably as surprised as I am [meaning not very], that Mariah's rep denies that the abs are fake without every really saying their not. "This is ridiculous. She has been eating right and working out for three hours a day. Mariah has never looked or felt better.

The picture to the right was taken about three weeks before the one at the top of this post. So, ZONErs... what do you think?
