Mariah Carey: “Pregnancy Made My Voice Stronger”

 Since diva Mariah Carey was confirmed as the new spokeswoman for Jenny Craig, she has engaged in  number of high profile interviews to discuss how her partnership with the company has influenced her new and improved body shape.

Now, in an interview with the Associated Press, the mother of two has revealed how her difficult pregnancy has changed her voice- for the better.

Peep her comments below…


If her voice is half as good as she says it is, her next album may just be the sonic treasure her fans have been waiting for.

Especially, since the publicized difficulties difficulties she has had with her vocals have led many to believe she has lost the power she once possessed circa the release of ‘Vision Of Love‘.

Let’s hope the ‘zen like’ approach to life she has adopted since being pregnant translates into any upcoming material  she releases.

For in a world filled with vocal less vocalists, Ms.Carey will always be a welcome force in the ever changing world of Pop.

Your thoughts?

  2. Salem November 11, 2011

    We shall see what studio enhancing technique she uses this time around.

    Fake lying heffa

    @ turveydel, I have been listening to her records together with whitney’s they never get old but it is so obvious that she is seeking lots of attention. Whoever doesn’t notice is blind.
    waiting for the new record, good or bad doesn’t make a difference in her status.

    Go Mariah!!

  4. YOOSONDALOOSE November 11, 2011

    Yes Mariah, think it might have. Hope it has, cannot wait for her next album!

    @Kimberly

    Whitney and Mariah are the true meaning of divas…no one would ever touch them

    IDK if it got stronger. But she is REALLY lucky because a lot of women loose their voices after pregnancy. I know someone it happened to. Also happened to Christina Aguilera (although she was damaging it before and pregnancy made it even worse). I’m wondering what it will do to Beyonce’s voice.

    I hope Mariah will do fine. Even if she couldn’t sing like her prime she is still great

  7. RoyalKev November 11, 2011

    I’m happy to see that Mimi’s feeling confident about her vocals. Staying away from your favorite happy drink for 9 months would help any singer out that likes to indulge.

    Good for Mariah! It doesn’t matter why she gets better as long as that’s the end result.

  8. kimberly November 11, 2011

    The studio is the worst place to judge a singer because of the talent of an engineer, I want to hear singers live! both mariah and whitney voice is garbage now but i can’t wait for mariah’s singing

    @ lord’s prayer… if you say no one can come close to whiney and mimi, what is your or the definition of diva?

  9. TIMMI November 11, 2011

    LMAO @ SALEM, how did I know I would find you here?

    Share your opinion on voices when your fav’s voice stops making people walk out of her concert and demand their money back…

    No surpirse her voice never left. Shes not Whitney houston who LOST HER VOICE TO CRACK.

    ~~
    Support Ms Kelly Rowland *Lay It On Me*
    Beyonce 4lop

    I´m excited. I think her album is going to be great (she always makes good music anyway).
    And of course her voice has been better for the past year, we already saw it last year with the Xmas album. It was amazing
    And also she looks so much better in this interview than in the Rossie one
    Go Mariah! And yes Mimi and Whitney… nobody can compare (only contender would be Celine). Lessors just shup up. Can´t stand a chance

  12. Imgunnacheckuboo November 11, 2011

    Mariah Lost her voice before she ever even met Nick Cannon, let alone squeezed out dem babies out!

    She hasn’t belted in years and her whistle register is gone with the wind. All she does now is that breathy whiny thing.

  13. JohnVidal November 11, 2011

    @Imgunnacheckuboo
    Oh please I´ve seen you making good comments about Rihanna. And you try to come for Mariah Carey? You´re a joke

  14. Imgunnacheckuboo November 11, 2011

    @JOHNVIDAL, Did I say Rihanna can sing? NO! I never said that. But to believe that Mariah’s voice has gotten stronger since giving birth when we all know it’s degraded over the years is just silliness.

    @Boricua, Um what are you trying to prove? This performance proves MY point. You could barely hear her the first two verses cause of the breathy mess she does now AND she only belted at the very end! It was noticeably weaker than in year’s past.

    Had she pulled out a whistle note on that I would have given you the benefit of a doubt but come on girl.

    Y’all are just too much for me. lol

  15. gus November 11, 2011

    shes cookin’ her next album….. the lambs cant wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  16. JohnVidal November 11, 2011

    @Imgunnacheckuboo
    If you can´t notice her voice improved during her pregnanct you are deaf. Sorry
    Just talking s*** about Mariah but making good comments about goats says it all

  17. Imgunnacheckuboo November 11, 2011

    @JOHNVIDAL, I like Rihanna’s style and attitude and her songs.

    Mariah bores me with all of those things. Her style is played, she’s looked the same since ’96, her music of late is boring and the diva tude is just too much for me.

    At least Rihanna is funny sometimes. When you’re over someone and you have to keep hearing about them it makes you start to pick them apart and hate on them. Plain and simple.

  18. JohnVidal November 11, 2011

    @Imgunnacheckuboo
    Yeah yeah plain and simple 🙂
    You like Rihanna´s attitude? what attitude? Poor girl can´t even speak properly on interviews. Her songs? Like that 2nd single we just heard? Man, don´t tell me more: you also like Britney Spears, Kesha and Katy Perry right? haha

  19. classy_guy November 11, 2011

    @ Imgunnacheckuboo Rihanna is just a t*** sensation cause all of her music draws in children that knows s*** about music! Mariah Carey is nothing but raw talent and no matter if her voice is gone or not, she can still outsing any female artist till this day!
    Rihanna holds the flattest notes…
    Beyonce just grunt and scream…
    The list goes on and on!

  20. Boricua November 11, 2011

    @Imgunnacheckuboo

    Thats the point here… theres nothing to prove!! shes an AMAIZING vocalist PERIOD!! and that performance was vocally beautiful if u ask me.

    ^^^ This person is psycho. Pay he/she no mind. Mariah’s voice is great. Her new music will be awesome. This person says that she bores them, yet they are in everyone of her last posts on this site. Hypocrite…

  22. tyra November 11, 2011

    D*** DOES MAKE MIRACLES HAPPEN SO I BELIEVE IT.. IVE HIT A COUPLE MARIAH NOTES IN MY DAY

    @IMGUNNACHECKUBOO

    “But to believe that Mariah’s voice has gotten stronger since giving birth when we all know it’s degraded over the years is just silliness.”

    Well yes, nobody is denying that Mariah’s voice hasn’t changed over the years… That’s the whole point of saying that the pregnancy has made her voice STRONGER. And since you haven’t heard a live performance from Mariah since pregnancy you may reserve your opinion.

    “Her whistle register is gone with the wind.”

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIjD1mBWipI

    Erm, are you trolling? I know some of the clips in that video are older, but focus on the first one of her being interviewed talking about her voice. Does that really seem like someone who is struggling to keep hold of their whistle register?

    And please, I don’t want to hear b******* about Mariah’s whistles being edited in the studio and such. Studios can make notes sound better, not string them out of nowhere.

    Pregnancy can enhance a female voice or destroy it
    Destroy it because of the hormones, or enhance it because having to carry a parasite inside you can force you to work on your breathe support and upper body strength which is essential for a great vocalist.

  27. Robier November 11, 2011

    Uhhh I’ll believe it when I hear it

  28. godriah November 11, 2011

    her voice was incredible on last years christmas specials, and on MCIIY. this is a fact and you will deal! haters lack taste and are rihanna fans…

  29. nicegirl November 11, 2011

    I am interested to hear her voice because she hasn’t sung live for a while. I’m just looking forward to hearing new music from her.

  30. Matty November 11, 2011

    Her Voice sounded nothing sort of Stellar on the 2010 Christmas Special!!!
    Her Whistle register has never been better or more clear (you can actually make out the words she’s singing in her highest pitch now) and she’s full of emotion again when she sings!! I feel like the Rainbow/Glitter Era really drained her soul, But Girl check the lost and found, and baby it’s back!!

    Can’t wait for the new Album!!!

    I hope so but we shall see. Mariahs voice still at its worse is more interesting then most other singers today.

  33. THEMCFAN November 11, 2011

    @ Imgunnacheckuboo
    if u can’t hear that the voice, though not as powerful as her early years, is in good shape, i think the only thing you need to be checking is your ears.

    and btw ” I like Rihanna’s style and attitude and her songs”
    by style u mean the one that she keeps switching up to keep ppl’s attention away from her lacking vocals?
    by attitude, i assume that you mean her constant and inappropriate use of the C-word?
    and last but not least, her songs, u mean the radio food that no1 will probably remember 5-10 years from now?

    i LOVE rihanna, but these rihanna fans crack me up!

    and Mariah, you just do your thing! i can’t wait to hear what ur cooking up for us lambs 🙂

  34. iSimplyDGAF November 11, 2011

    sigh..i understand mariah is used to the limelight..but ifyou really want more attention..you should come out ad an ARTIST. dont talk about how pregnancy has made ur voice stronger..how abt putting out a track that displays your vocals so WE can see for ourself.

  35. jamir21: The SLAYER of PRESSED B****** November 11, 2011

    Oh really then use it to create some more MUSIC !
