- <p> Jazz singer DIANE SCHUUR wields a lot of weight in the
- music world -- but not as much as she used to. Her ballooning
- bulk hit a high in 1989, when Schuur had to be carted about
- Disneyland. "I was just feeling awful. I knew I wouldn't be
- living if I stayed that way." Now, minus 100 lbs., the
- creamy-voiced song stylist has a hot album -- In Tribute -- and
- appears in a TV ad for a quickie diet program. "People say how
- beautiful I am, but of course, I can't look in a mirror," says
- Schuur, blind from birth.
