Loose the pants that emphasize the hips for starters then get on a diet and exercise.

she’s got the hippy hippy shake
And what, exactly, does her weight have to do with her voice”
Maybe she should get a hold of Carrie Underwood’s personal trainer. She lost alot a weight after she won AI.
Probably nothing. Other than the record company wants to keep its investment alive, healthy, and marketable.
Katherine McPhee, too. I’m surprised the Idol brass aren’t insisting on it. ;)
Noted.
Aretha Franklin (et al) comes to mind … and she is still alive and singing, if memory serves. Could be the exception, who knows?
Saw her tonight on the ACM show - she looked pretty slim and trim!
Hmm, looks like Kelly could be a candidate for “What not to wear”

Many people think Duncan Hunter needs to lose weight too. Is that going to make him a better President? I think not.
