Mariah Carey - breast implants?



Mariah Carey is busting out... I have always been a Mariah Carey fan (except for the brief "Glitter" period). I liked her most when she first appeared on the scene with "Vision of Love." Back then she was in her early twenties, in great shape, and appeared very natural. In the last few years, she has gained a bit of weight and it seems that her breasts have at least doubled in size. She appears to have had a breast augmentation, with the implants placed below the muscle. This accounts for the space between her breasts, and the fact that she really can't move them together to get midline cleavage, ala Dolly Parton. This is a classic sign of breast implants placed under the muscle. I tend to place the implants both above and below the muscle, depending on the wishes of the patient. Mariah has also either had her implants upsized recently, or her breasts have grown as she and her career have.

Is it just me or does no one ever really talk about her implants? She definitely grew, but no one mocks it like they do with other celebrities. I just thought it was strange.

LOL...

No one "mocks" her implants because they look GOOD. I actually prefer the mature looking Mariah.

I think the reason people don't talk about her implants much is because they look great and have quite a natural look. They're not as obvious as other implants.

i always thought it was strange that she escaped the celebrity scrutiny on this one too. i suppose they do look more natural than some others but that's not to say they don't look ridiculously obvious. makes me feel bad for other celebs that get slammed despite their talent.

The strange thing to me is how she's always looking at them and posing them - making sure her hair falls this way or that around each one. It's kind of sad, as if she thinks they are who she is. Maybe she has some lingering mental health problems. :(

They have a hang like heavy sacks of grain. I wonder if it was the same Surgeon as Britney.

she obviously had implants. when she first came on the scene (vision of love vid), she was very flat chested. now she's like a D or DD. they do have a natural look- very tear drop and not gravity defying and inflatable looking like christina aguilera's stripper boob job. i am surprised more people don't comment on it, tho (in both cases, actually). mariah jumped from an A cup to at least a D (maybe DD) cup...after she made money.

Her boob job is just a speculation it's not like Dolly Parton, Pamela Anderson or Victoria Beckham where it is definate they had a boob job. Mariah Carey was really small and skinny and only 19 in Vision Of Love times... now in her late 30's quite chunky and curby definately she's not going to have teenager boobs everyone is saying that she gets away from media attention, maybe its because they are real why would someone pay to get a saggy boob job? trust me she has said before that she also wears "Gel filled bras" and gave a pair to Sharon Osbourne because Sharon said her boobs are fake LOL

Oh wut! Fake? For real? Err, you know what I mean. AAMOF, now that you mention it, she was quite thin & atheletic looking when she was younger.

Fake breasts, fake woman AFAIC.
:(

I was thinking that they look extra fake in her obsessed video, especially when she has teh bikini on with the brown shirt!

I have always been a Mariah fan and knew she didn't have these breast when she came out with "Someday". But they do look amazingly real, it still makes me wonder whether they are fake or not. I was thinking she could have increased her breasts naturally over the years.

"H: I was thinking she could have increased her breasts naturally over the years."

Ha! Yup, for sure Just like every other singer, actress and wannabe....she just "filled out". Amazing.

"why would someone pay to get a saggy boob job?"

Easy! Because she wants bigger boobs and she also wants it to look natural.

Mariah is a very subtle person.

Mariah Carey had implants in 1998 during that time she was skinny. If you need evidence just check out the pic in mariahjournl.com 1998 she miraculously jumps for an small B to a D in 1998. However I have to give the girl credit they are definitely looking more natural - she must have had something else done.

She got 3 frekin implants over the years. THREE people. There's more plastic in her than a plastic recycling unit.
