"It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings" is one
English expression that means nothing is
irreversible until the final act has been
completed. However, for one obese opera
star, the show wouldn't start until she lost
weight. In 2004, diva Deborah Voigt was not
allowed to sing her signature role in Covent
Garden until she looked less like the iconic
"fat lady" of the opera and more like a pop
star.
