Hi, folks!

I saw a video of The Carpenters. Is the female singer Mary Chapin Carpenter?

No. The female singer was Karen Carpenter. She died years ago from an
eating disorder.

According to legend, Mary Chapin was Karen's frail and unpopular
sibling.

After dabbling in black magic, Mary Chapin found an arcane spell
detailing how she could gain the popularity and adoration that had
evaded her and settled upon Karen.

To complete the spell, Mary was instructed to completely ingest Karen,
thereby explaining her success and her more than ample girth.

LOL!
Too bad she didn't ingest Karen's great voice too.
One thing for sure, MCC will never have anorexia!

So, Mary Chapin is too fat!! And Karen was too thin, and look where it
got her! I realise you are trying to be funny, but where on earth do
you get off criticizing people like this just for a quick laugh. Both
these women, in different ways, have/had beautiful haunting voices which
give/gave a huge amount of pleasure to people world-wide, what have you
done with your life!
