Nick Cannon: WHIPPED!

Come on, they've only been married a couple of weeks. They've only been a couple for like a week longer than that! He kinda still has to go running...

NICK Cannon learned the meaning of "If you don't pay, you got no say" this weekend. Mariah Carey's new husband was trying to have a boys' weekend at Saturday's opening of the MGM Grand at Foxwoods with pals Sean Combs and Quincy Jones when he got a call from Carey. "He was summoned home by her at 1 in the morning," a source said. "He didn't look happy about it." A rep for Carey didn't return calls. (Source: Page Six)

Mariah's Ring ONLY $2.5M

Thanks to my friend and loyal reader, Jackie, for pointing me towards this article from People.com. I thought $16M seemed almost impossible for a ring! Here's the scoop plus the pics from People.


When Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey made their first public appearance as newlyweds on Thursday, the pair simply dazzled – almost as much as their wedding jewelry.

Carey, who attended TIME magazine's "100 Most Influential People in the World" gala with her new husband, showed off her impressive pink diamond sparkler from of Jacob & Co. jewelers. The ring, valued at a whopping $2.5 million, is 17 carats. The center stone alone is 10-carats – a little smaller than a dime.

"I wanted to do something extremely special, something that Mariah would really appreciate," Cannon told PEOPLE. "We got the pinkest stone we could find, surrounded by other diamonds."

Carey definitely approved. "It's so clear, you can see my finger through it," she said.

According to Jacob Arabo of Jacob & Co., Cannon "was very involved," in picking the ring, which has an emerald-cut fancy light pink center stone surrounded by 58 intense pink diamonds, flanked by two half-moon diamonds.

"The way he came into the store, I knew this was very serious," Arabo told PEOPLE. "He said, 'Jacob, I’m in love. This is what I want to do.'"

Meanwhile, Cannon's ring would make Liberace proud. The elaborate, chunky diamond band made its debut Thursday as he was leaving his New York City hotel.

But while a diamond may be forever, the couple's new tattoos – his says "Mariah" across his shoulders, and hers reads "Mrs. Cannon" on the small of her back – will last a lifetime. "Rings and all that is special and exciting," said Cannon. "But to us, tattoos mean more than anything because it's something we never thought we'd do."

Plus, they're a lot harder to lose.

Mariah's $16M Wedding Ring

Where exactly did Nick Cannon get $16M for a ring?! Obviously, Mariah bought the ring and Nick picked it out. Right?


Mariah Carey’s one lucky girl — her wedding gift from new hubby Nick Cannon was a $16m, 14-carat, pink diamond ring.

And the ‘Touch My Body’ singer’s new bling wowed fellow diners when she was spotted at New York’s trendy Waverly Inn.

A source said: “Nick has been besotted since he first met Mariah on a US TV show three years ago. Just before they got married, he got down on one knee again and gave her the pink diamond ring he’d had custom made. She was stunned and thrilled.”

The pair married in a small ceremony at Carey’s Bahamian estate last month. Mariah’s cousin, Shawn McDonald, reportedly walked her down the aisle.

The pop superstar recently dismissed reports she never had a pre-nup in place before the shotgun wedding, reportedly telling a pal: “Anyone who thinks we didn’t have a pre-nup is smoking something!”

It’s Mariah’s second marriage. She was married to record executive Tommy Mottola from 1993 – 1998.

Nick was previously engaged to Victoria’s Secret model Selita Ebanks in 2007. However, the couple called off the engagement that same year.

When asked what he loved about Carey, Cannon said “everything.”

Mariah & Nick: Wedding Photos

Of course, People mag scored the pics. As always! And hey, I did read recently that they have a pre-nup. Thank God.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words — and this certainly shows Mariah Carey’s wedding is the real deal.

The ‘Touch My Body’ singer, 38, married beau Nick Cannon in a secret ceremony in the Bahamas on April 30, and are only now showing off their wedding snaps.

“We really do feel we are soulmates,” Carey tells People magazine in its latest issue. “I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me.”

Cannon adds: “She is beautiful on the outside and 10 times as beautiful on the inside.”

According to insiders, Nick and Mariah are now planning a big party for all the singer’s New York pals when they return from their honeymoon.

This is Mariah’s second marriage. She was married to record executive Tommy Mottola from 1993 – 1998.

Mariah & Nick - Marriage Legal!

Well, it looks like Mariah Carey's surprise marriage to Nick Cannon is legal! And it also seems as though Mariah's ring is not Selita's ring. Selita's ring was 12 carats. Mariah's is 17. Do we think that Mariah upgraded the ring herself? Or was Nick Cannon somehow able to get ANOTHER super expensive diamond ring?


Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon's whirlwind romance took an official turn when the singer obtained a marriage license on the Caribbean island of Eleuthera, a source confirms to PEOPLE.

According to marriage requirements for the Bahamas, a couple must be in the country for at least 48 hours, be over the age of 16 and have obtained a valid marriage license within 90 days, explains Monique Gomez, a Bahamian attorney in Nassau who specializes in family law.

The source says that Carey did obtain a license in Eleuthera within that time period. And clarifies Gomez, "The minister would make sure [the license] goes into the registry. It's still a valid marriage even if it's not filed. Anywhere in the world."

The New York Post reported that the nuptials took place at Carey's private estate off Eleuthera. Carey owns an estate on Windermere Island, which is an exclusive Bahamian island where the British royals vacation.

Though there has been no official confirmation of the wedding, Linda Cannon revealed, "He called and told us all about it."

After dating less than two months, Carey, 39, and Cannon, 27, got hitched in an impromptu island ceremony. This wasn't the first whirlwind courtship for Cannon, who proposed to Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks last year after just four months of dating. (The pair split last October.)

A source close to Ebanks – who received a 12-carat diamond ring from Jacob & Co jewelers, similar to the 17-carat Jacob bauble Carey is sporting – says the model "really is not affected by it. She is past that point in her life." Ebanks's rep says Ebanks "has no comment other than she wishes them well." (Source: People.com)

Mariah & Nick Cannon Engaged?

I just can't imagine Mariah Carey married to Nick Cannon. Can you?!

MARIAH Carey's keeping mum about that ginormous diamond ring she started wearing on her ring finger last week, but a source tells us it's definitely from her new beau, Nick Cannon - and that the duo are now engaged. Cannon bought the bauble for $2.5 million at Jacob & Co. on East 57th Street, where he was spotted again yesterday. "Maybe he's making payments on it," laughed our witness, who overheard Cannon telling Jacob Arabo they are set to marry. Carey's new bling is 17 carats, with a whopping 10-carat center stone, and made of rare pink and purple diamonds. Cannon was also once engaged to Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks.

Diva Premiere for Mariah

While I think it's so gross that someone actually gave Mariah another movie role, this piece from Page Six is so dishy I couldn't resist sharing it with you!

MARIAH Carey was in full diva mode at the party for the premiere of her "Tennessee" at the Tribeca Film Festival's Cadillac Lounge at Tenjune on Saturday. On the walk-in, when she dropped her sunglasses on the red carpet, she quickly turned her back to the wall of photographers until she'd slipped them back on. Then she was escorted inside through a back door, but it still took her 30 minutes to make her way to her table, where Zoe Kravitz and Ben Kingsley were waiting to congratulate her. Carey's new beau, Nick Cannon, showed up soon after. "He bailed on his own premiere to be here," said our spy. "He didn't do any press for his film, 'Ball Don't Lie,' and came to see Mariah." On Friday at the lounge, William H. Macy played temporary doorman, letting in two party crashers by pretending they were pals. "He took them past the velvet rope and into the party where he introduced them to Cheryl Hines and partied with them the rest of the night," our source said. (Source: PageSix)

Mariah Carey Night on AI

Mariah Carey week. Remember when Mariah went nutso? And she's comeback! There's hope for Britney. I mean...Brit went crazier and she's clearly less talented than Mariah, but you know what? I think she's a hell of alot more likeable than Mariah.

I think this will be a tough week.

Oh and also - what up with Mariah and Nick Cannon?!?! I kind of like it!



David Archuleta - Eeek, leather pants! Am I the only one who doesn't just love this kid? Ok, but a bad song choice IMO. But the judges loved it. Guess I'm wrong!

Carly Smithson - I hope she does well tonight. I like it! I think she chose a good song for her! All in all, I liked it - but wasn't blown away. Judges weren't either. I like how they STILL think she has it in her to blow us away, tho.

Syesha - She looks pretty. I like her dress. Good song choice for her and she's doing a good job. I still stick to my "no charisma" opinion, though.

Brooke White - "Hero." I love this song. I think she's doing a good job! She's so much more comfortable behind the piano, isn't she? I also think she looks really pretty tonight, too.

Kristy Lee Cook - Again, she looks pretty tonight. WTF?! She has really gotten better. I wanted her gone, gone, gone for weeks and now....I dunno. She's kind of growing on me. Next American Idol? No, but she's not a joke in the competition.

David Cook - Ok, I'll admit it, ya'll. I love him now. He's my fave in the competition. I loved it. Best of the night so far. Hands down. I heard David's brother was in the audience tonight. I think that's why he's crying. Ok....I love him. I'm teary!!!! I think this is our next American Idol, folks.


jason Castro - I do love his voice and his handsome face. I like it! Not was much as David, but a close second for me.

1. David Cook
2, Jason Castro
3. David Archuleta
4. Carly Smithson
5. Kristy Lee Cook
6. Syesha
7. Brooke White

But I do think it'll most likely be Kristy Lee going home this week. However, I wouldn't be surprised to see Carly or Syesha go.

Mariah Carey: I'm No Ho!

I read this Mariah Carey quote and thought, "Oh - so she just DRESSES like a whore. Ok."

SINCE her 1998 divorce from record honcho Tommy Mottola, Mariah Carey has been linked to a string of high-powered men. including Yankee star Derek Jeter, Latino singer Luis Miguel, music exec Mark Sudack and even rapper Eminem. But don't assume she sleeps around. Pressed about Eminem, the Grammy winner tells the Times of London: "Please! I never had any type of sexual relationship with that man. I can count the number of people I've had sex with on fewer than the fingers on one hand."
