There's just one problem. The star likes to show a little too much of said healthy-looking body.
Last night, she performed in Universal City, CA in a tiny ruffle-bottom dress that was downright pageant-like, and far from the mature, siren-like gowns we always wish the star would wear.
Take a look for yourself and vote on whether Carey's outfit was a dud or not:

Mariah Carey performed in Universal City last night wearing a pageant-like gold ruffled dress. While Carey loves to show her skin, which is smooth and "just like honey" after all these years, her curvy frame, on the other hand, might have been better suited in a different dress. Don't get us wrong, we think Carey is gorgeous -- she just might have benefited from a more mature look... and a bit more fabric!

Carrie Underwood took to the field to sing the national anthem at super bowl 2010. The star's all-white ensemble (complete with glitzy silver accents) seemed a little odd for the occasion. Did you love it or hate it?

We usually see rocker Pink riding her bike in sweats and high tops, looking decidedly tomboyish. So when she emerged from a lunch in this '50s housewife attire, we were shocked! What do you think of her floral and pink ensemble?

Actress Amanda Seyfried poses at the "Dear John" premiere in a very low-cut blue satin dress with a silver-trimmed bubble skirt. Was this look a mistake for the budding star?

Singer Kelis attends The First Annual Data Awards at the Hollywood Palladium in an outfit beyond description. A horned headband, ballet slipper-esque fetish shoes (Gaultier, perhaps?), a pink skintight bodysuit, and a cropped blazer. Um, excuse us?

Jennifer Lopez gets into the Miami spirit with this lively floor-length dress. Are these bright colors and patterns fun -- or overwhelming?

Jessica Alba grabs a coffee in a an eclectic ensemble. Jess plays around with the layers trend and her usually boho-chic style looks a little more hobo chic.

Wearing black is supposed to be slimming, right? Well... Jessica Simpson demonstrates one exception to the rule. Even though Jess has an enviable figure, these high-waisted pants only amplify her every curve, making hips and thighs look bigger than they really are. And yes, we know -- she still looks great. We're just saying that the hips (and crotch!) don't need to be the central focus of the outfit.

"Gossip Girl" star Leighton Meester attended the opening of Klutch nightclub in Miami wearing one of her typical non-conformist outfits -- a mini dress patterned with black circles. The dress featured a scandalously "open" chest area, and an unfortunately wide hip area.
