Why are opera singers fat?

Another exception 

Cecilia Bartoli, one of the world's most famous Opera singers is most definitely not a fattie; in fact she's fairly hot.

Another theory 

Another theory might be that Opera singers are just particularly apt to a hedonistic lifestyle which involves double portions on the after-the-curtail buffet, tripple champagne and that young bariton over there for a desert, please.

Maybe Opera singers enjoy the good life 

I also wondered if successful opera singers enjoy the good life including rich foods.
