As you probably know, not many opera singers become massive stars. Within the opera circle, sure, but usually, opera is too niche for most audiences. So, that shows you how powerful Deborah Voigt’s voice is. Compared to the likes of Andrea Bocelli and Luciano Pavarotti, Voigt is, undoubtedly, one of the greatest singers of all time. It’s no surprise this opera soprano has transcended the genre!
It relatively common for opera singers to be larger, but when Voigt found herself at a dangerous weight, she knew she had to act on it. So, in 2003, she decided to undergo gastric bypass surgery. Because the singer did it for health reasons, Voigt has had no problems opening up about her surgery. However, just because she dropped 130 pounds, doesn’t mean she feels differently. “I still think of myself as a large woman,” Voight confessed to the San Francisco Gate in 2006.
