Mariah Carey will only eat purple food.
The pop diva is convinced mauve-coloured foods like red grapes and plums -
known for their anti-ageing benefits - will stop her developing wrinkles.
The songstress, who devised the diet with her nutritionist, now munches
purple meals three days a week.
A source is quoted in Britain's The Sun newspaper as saying: "It sounds
off-the-wall but it's a huge injection of healthy food in one go. Purple
products are nature's best weapons in the battle against ageing. There's a
saying that 'a plum a day keeps a facelift away'."
"Purple food can prevent breakdown of collagen and slow the wasting of
muscles."
It isn't the first time Mariah has tried a bizarre diet.
Earlier this year, it was revealed she was living on plain fish and soup in
a bid to shed her excess pounds.
The curvy star took all calorific treats off the menu until she reached her
target weight.
She admitted she had been on a "really bleak diet, which is basically just
soups and fish prepared really blandly".

I didn’t know botox came in purple..
So I guess this article is meant to warn Barney the Dinosaur that he better watch his back…
sorry guys…somebody had to say it!
Seriously, if Mariah researched diet nutrition, she’d learn that the use of certain spices would not only enhance the taste of the “bland” fish and soups, but would increase her metabolism as well. (And I didn’t have to hire a nutritionist guru to know that).
Maybe she should focus on the fact that she has no eyebrows and dresses like a slut instead of focusing on her diet.
The diet might do wonders for her body and wrinkles but it won’t replace all the missing brain cells.
it never ceases to amaze me the crazy diets people try to lose weight. i lost 53 lbs. on Weight Watchers in the last year and am now a size 6 (woo hoo!) and i eat a very balanced diet of lean proteins of all sorts, lots of fresh fruit and veggies, and low fat diary…basically the wholesome and healthy way of eating your dr. has always told you to try.
mariah probably just wants quick fixes for looks alone instead of going for a lifestyle change that emphasizes health, which naturally results in weight loss.
despite all that, girl’s body is banging now. now if only we could teach the girl how to dress.
Forget Barney oooh la la, what about poor Grimace? Happy meals will never be the same.
Holy shit, I just looked down and noticed I’m wearing a purple dress… Jesus Christ, I’m turning into Mariah Carey!! Calgon take me away (far far away from MC)!
oooh la la - Pomegranate & Acai pulp are supposed to be great antioxidants. I try to drink Acai juice. Hope it’s worth it’s hype.
mariahs lisp was here…thanks for the antiox info. I hope the Acai juice works for you! I’ll have to check into it. Have a good weekend!
You guys are crackin me up today!!
There is NO quick fix for lifelong weightloss.
And if I had her $$$ I would eat whatever the hell I wanted and just get lipo.
Her obvious insanity about food indicates to me that she will be fat again soon. Why can’t she just eat a balanced diet of lean protein and veggies and fruits like a normal person? Nutjob.
Aaaand! She has enough money for a chef and nutritionist. Does she just enjoy torturing herself?
*Isn’t there a purple teletubby too? He/she/it better watch out!*
yes, tensions are high in the puppet kingdom.
Good for you Gambitgirl!!
I for one can’t understand all these crazy ass diets! It’s hard yeah but eating right and execersing does the trick!It’s portion control etc not colors,not blood type,not soups,pills and all the crazy diets! only diets that seem to head in the right direction are:jenny craig and weight watchers
Mariah looks good why keeping dieting? she had the structure now just follow it!
lol janice!!!
yall funny. i looove mariah’s avatar!!!
Whatever she did, she looks good. Now if we could do something about her wardrobe…
yah good luck with that. how many purple foods are there? she’ll prolly end up eating icecream, berry cheesecake and popsicles with the excuse of ‘its purple bitches’.
true true junk -mail…..all I could think of was beets and radishes.
I used to be such a fan of moo-riah’s. Now she’s just whacko!!
^^ that’s a funny one
oh well you can have all the $ in the world and there is no special rembaldi fluid that will make you young forever. mariah might as well get used to that.
