Access Hollywood is reporting that Mariah Carey and actor/rapper Nick Cannon are really engaged, according to a source. JayBird reported on Monday that Carey has been spotted out wearing a “gimme some attention” ring, because the diamond sparkler she’s flashing on her left hand doesn’t look like a typical engagement ring.
According to the NY Post, it’s an incredible $2.5 million rare pink and purple diamond 17 carat ring with a 10 carat center stone. Cannon is said to have bought it at Jacob & Co, and to have been spotted there several times.
Cannon, 27, skirted around the issue when asked if he and Mariah were engaged. He didn’t give a direct answer, saying “I can’t even know what to say. She’s probably the most festive, remarkable person I’ve ever met. Good friend… Rumors happen. They do.”
Now Access Hollywood claims that “a source close to Mariah” has confirmed the news that the self absorbed singer, 38, is engaged to the 11 years younger Cannon.
Cannon was engaged to Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Selita Ebanks last year, but called off their engagement. This will be his first marriage and Mariah’s second - if this news is true. They at least seem to be dating, and I bet Cannon is getting some benefits from all the high end lingerie Mariah keeps in a separate walk in closet.
You kind of assume Mariah’s too into herself to get married again, and she certainly doesn’t want children, but maybe she’s ready to settle down with someone who also enjoys outrageous extravagances.
Mariah Carey is shown oh-so-subtly smoothing back her hair to show off her enormous ring at the premiere of Tennessee on 4/26/08, thanks to PRPhotos. It’s hard to notice the ring though and I found myself staring at her cleavage.
Update: Perez Hilton reports that the ring Mariah Carey is wearing is the same one Cannon gave Selita Ebanks when they were engaged last year. Obviously he got it back. Guess The NY Post had the details wrong, or maybe one of Cannon’s camp leaked that story to make it seem like the ring was new.

Am I the only person who thinks she is completely freaking irritating? Every time I have seen her sing live on a show she either just freaking stands there and doesn’t move or does a couple “sexy” like body pulse kinda things. The few times I’ve seen people interview her she tries to stand like she is a damn runway model. I seriously want to just walk up to her and shake her.

I’m just glad she got that horrible boob job fixed.
I don’t know about this story, though, because my mind simply cannot grasp WHY these two would ever get married.

no jenngush, you arent the only one who thinks there are some wires unattached in her brain. something is just ‘off’ about mariah-nothing about her makes sense, this engagement being the latest. she is so weirdly random. nick cannon? she looks like someone plugged the wrong cord into the back her head and now she is robotically going through the motions of ‘marry time’ with basically a child, and accepting second hand rings, which I would think would be way insulting and offputting to someone with such a diva attitude.

She’s a few short and I’ve disliked her intensely since she first arrived on the scene, eager and grasping ready to sell her soul for a record.
She was the original KatEbot who got away and has been living off her escape ever since.
Emancipated my ass. Girl wouldn’t even admit that she was black at first. She was Venezuelan, remember that?

Mariah, really needs to find an “older” man. Nick Cannon is so immature and then he has the nerve to give a “recycled” engagement ring! What the hell is wrong with this picture??? Sometimes I wonder if Mariah isn’t hitting the crack pipe! She has a lot of growing up herself…so maybe this is a match made in heaven. Who the hell knows…God bless them both!

Never wear anything worth more than the body part it’s attached to.

ASHTON KUTCHER!!!!!
Mariah would never ever ever wear some girl’s hand me down engagement ring.

^^Thinking the same thing headache.

She is such an embarrassing puttyface. Everything she does screams 12-year-old brat wanting attention. I can’t even believe she’s still around. Good for her for making a career out of ridiculous poses, slutty tacky outfits, and bad behavior. She must have fans somewhere — anybody out there a fan of Maria’s? I’d love to know why.

Mariah Carey is a big phony now, this marriage was a publicly stunt. i dont care much bout Mariah Carey anymore. money and fame changed her to act as if she’s more than what she are. Mariah first album was the bum, Mariah was real, and can sing her buttocks off. this latest Mariah, she try to hard.
