What a great example of an Arrogant Fat! I DID want to punch her! Even though opera isn't my specialty I actually know who this cow is--Stephanie Blythe is a big deal (ha ha) mezzo soprano who is frequently mentioned in the ongoing debate in the opera/classical voice world concerning "how fat is too fat?". There have been tons (ha ha, sorry) of articles and reviews debating whether or not obesity can be or should still be overlooked in an art form where the voice is the main thing. Many critics believe that casting obese singers takes away from not only the visual enjoyment of the opera, but the believability of the story, as in when a female character is supposedly attractive to, or is seducing a male character. It's a huge (ha ha, again sorry) issue that's being discussed more and more now that there are more slender classical singers making a name for themselves. Fun side note: she's about 48 years old and married to a former wrestler who was at his peak in the 60s. In India.
