Mariah Carey has undergone gastric sleeve surgery.
The GRAMMY winner, who showed off a slimmer figure
at her hand and footprint ceremony at the TCL Chinese Theatre in
Hollywood last Wednesday, underwent the weight loss surgery about six
weeks ago, sources tell ET.
Carey
got the gastric sleeve surgery, which shrinks the size of the stomach
so patients eat less, after feeling "extremely insecure about her
weight," one source tells ET.
"She
always fluctuates and it makes her upset," the source says. "She lives
in denial about it; she has the tags cut out of clothes, so she can be
blissfully unaware of her size."
A second source tells ET that Carey, who feels "much better about herself" now, adding, "this is a new beginning for her."
Carey's rep would not comment on her weight loss surgery. Page Six was first to report the news.
Another part of the singer's new beginning is wrapping up her Las Vegas residency at Caesars Palace and
moving on to The Venetian in March 2018.
According to the source, Carey
has signed a "two-year deal contingent upon how well the show does in
the first year."
When
reached for comment, The Venetian Las Vegas would not confirm the news,
telling ET they're "consistently engaged in discussions with a number
of today’s top artists regarding residencies, and we are always
interested in having artists of the caliber of Mariah Carey perform at
our venues."
