Mariah has always had a knack for looking effortlessly flawless, and she’s never been shy about sharing the secrets behind her picture-perfect moments. In a past appearance on the Las Culturistas podcast, the "Fantasy" singer revealed that the most crucial element to any photo is the lighting.

 "I can’t with the overhead lighting. Why do they do it to us?" she quipped. "I shouldn’t say ‘us,’ it’s not ‘us.’ It’s me. I’m the one who’s the most tortured by the hideous lighting in every elevator, doorway, gym—not that I go to the gym, but I’m just saying, it’s hideous lighting!"

Of course, looking this good doesn’t just happen by chance. Mariah has long been candid about her diet and fitness routine, which she admits isn’t for the faint-hearted.

 "It’s really hard. My diet, you would hate it," she confessed to E! News back in 2016. "All you eat is Norwegian salmon and capers every day. That’s it. I’m actually serious… I try to stick with the proteins. It’s the worst."

The Grammy winner’s relationship with her body has evolved over the years, particularly after welcoming twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-husband Nick Cannon in 2011. "I learned a lot from being pregnant and watching my body change," she previously shared, adding that maintaining a healthy figure is "90 percent diet."
