Hmmm, I sense a lens filter at work here. And of course, Mariah's retoucher, who has got to be one of the highest paid in the industry.

This Allure cover doesn't even look like Mariah Carey, it looks like a Mariah cartoon. Do you think she demands this kind of photo treatment, or has everyone gotten so used to her look that they just go with the flow and Photoshop her into oblivion anyway?

Her eyebrows...they look like drawn-on chola brows, but in brown instead of the usual Sharpie black.

This is awful. I want the old Mariah back, the one with big hair and actual facial expressions, like in the "Vision of Love" days.
