'Karen Carpenter, I feel so close to you'
'Karen Carpenter, I feel so close to you'
... from the Stoke Sentinel
A KAREN Carpenter tribute artist says she has been living the life of her idol – right down to developing anorexia.
The legendary Carpenters singer died from heart failure in 1983, aged 32, believed to be a complication of her anorexia.
And as professional musician Julie Roberts – who has a similar singing style to Karen – began to perform more and more Carpenters songs, she found her life began to parallel the tragic singer.
Then when Julie started taking laxatives to lose weight – just like Karen – she realised matters were getting out of hand. The 5ft 10ins singer plummeted from a healthy 12 stone, to just eight stone.
In the end, it was only when she temporarily stopped singing Carpenters songs that she was able to quit taking laxatives and get her weight loss under control.
