Please Send Mariah Carey Presents; She's in Loooove

Most people feel a little bit gypped by weddings. You buy some new clothes, a big black-and-white box from Crate & Barrel, spend an entire day "celebrating love" or some crap, and then another day holding an ice pack to your throbbing head. Plus, you'll likely have to see someone's fat Uncle Bob attempt to cabbage patch during a Will Smith song. If it weren't for the cake and the hope of an open bar, nobody would put up with them. So are Mariah Carey's moneybags comrades getting off easy by being coaxed to send Wedgewood and Waterford without getting some roast beef and lemon chiffon cake first? Page Six dishes on Mimi's gift fishing:

MARIAH Carey's friends and colleagues weren't invited to her impromptu wedding to Nick Cannon, but they can still send a gift. According to an insider, "Mariah's assistant, Gina, sent out over 100 e-mails to her wealthy friends letting them know that she's registered at Bergdorf Goodman if they want to buy her a present. It's odd because she's not even having a big wedding party or anything. It was assumed they'd have a big celebration when they got back, but no. They just want the gifts." On the list are "fine china, very expensive silver stemware" and other items. Carey's rep declined to comment.

We understand the inclusion of stemware on the registry, as we're sure that Mariah loves a tipple, but china? What ever could that be used for? A nice game a Frisbee in the 500-square-foot master shower? A possible weapon in case Nick gets uppity and wants Mimi to watch something "scary" and "manly" like Rambo in the in-house deluxe screening room? Because we're pretty sure they're not for when Mariah invites the Beckhams or the Trumps over for a nice home-cooked meal of lasagna and garlic bread. We're pretty sure that Mimi only eats pesticide-free julienned tree bark at this point. She probably heard that it contains negative calories and will completely eliminate cellulite.
