Our Mimi is going to be a bride! And this time she won't be marrying a creepy old rich dude who will make her a star but keep her in a very glittery cage but instead a young upstart of unknown financial means! The upside to Mariah having to forfeit some of her cherished closet space? We took this chance to look up Nick Cannon on Wikipedia and finally know why he's famous. He was on All That! Just like that guy on SNL. And the other one. Anyway, Access Hollywood reports:
It appears Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are ready to make beautiful music together.A source close to Mariah has confirmed to Access Hollywood that the music diva is engaged to Nick Cannon.
Reps for both singers were unavailable for comment.
The couple sent the rumor mill into overdrive when 38-year-old Mariah (with Nick on her arm) was seen sporting a dazzling new piece of bling on her ring finger at the after party for her Tribeca film, ìTennessee,î in New York.
When asked at the party what he loved about Mariah, 27-year-old Nick gave a one-word answer.
ìEverything,î he told People.
Up until recently, Mariah had been romantically linked to music executive Mark Sudack. However, she never confirmed the romance.
Mariah was previously married to record executive Tommy Mottola from 1993 ñ 1998.
Nick was previously engaged to Victoriaís Secret model Selita Ebanks in 2007. However, the couple called off the engagement that same year.
This will be the first marriage for the ìDrumlineî star.
We can picture it now: Mariah will be swathed in a yard or so of the finest fabric known to man, surrounded by rare purple orchids, and after the couple's first marital kiss, a million fluttering butterflies will swarm around them. Then the butterflies will eat Nick alive for stealing their master. Either that, or Nick will just use all the crap he bought for his canceled wedding. According to Hollywood Grind:
Mariahís engagement ring was previously on Nickís former fianceís finger, Vctoriaís Secret model Selita Ebanks, in 2007. Same ring, different girl. Nick doesnít want his investment going to waste.
We doubt Mariah ever even wears her clothes twice, and those were on her body. She will not be pleased with a ring that touched the skin of some sub-semi-famous underwear model.
