A still from Mariah’s “Bye Bye” video, which is below
I mentioned this briefly yesterday when People promised that their upcoming Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey wedding issue would have details of their “plans for kids.” That statement is kind of vague and I thought that maybe they weren’t planning on kids right away, since Mariah said around two weeks ago that “It’s hard to have kids in this world… I don’t think I could properly educate a child right now. Maybe in the future, but I actually haven’t thought about it.” It also sounded like she said having kids would make her feel violated, because she added “I never wanted to feel violated and I know that’s a kind of weird thing to say, but that’s how I am.” (Those quotes were printed in OK! Magazine and reported online around April 22, so maybe Mariah said that up to a month ago, but the quotes are not more than a month old.)
Now there are actual excerpts out from People’s interview with Mariah and Nick, and she did indeed say she wants kids, and she seems kind of resolved to it. Mariah also claims that their tattoos for each other are “forever and ever” and Nick says it was love at first site and they haven’t left each other’s company since they met:
Nick on their whirlwind affair: “It was a love-at-first-sight thing. Since we’ve been together, we’ve been inseparable.”
Mariah on how friends knew they were getting serious: “One thing (few people) knew was we got tattoos a few weeks earlier. So anyone who saw my (”Mrs. Cannon”) tattoo wasn’t surprised. To me rings are special and exciting, but tattoos mean more than anything. They’re forever and ever.”
Nick on their connection: “From the first time we sat down to discuss the video at the Beverly Hills Hotel, we connected. … I was able to be myself with her. We are both eternally 12 years old.”
Mariah on plans to have kids: “It’s part of the whole purpose of getting married. I’d just want our children to have the best childhood and upbringing they possibly could.”

The way Mariah phrases it, she makes it sound like it’s inevitable and that she just will make sure her children are well taken care of and that’s all she can do. It’s a complete turnaround from her statement just two weeks ago that she hadn’t even thought of it and seemed kind of daunted at the thought of children.
Mariah got married without much consideration, and is now the wife of a guy she started dating just six weeks ago who probably hasn’t even gotten on her nerves once yet. She seems to have changed her mind about children about as quickly as she decided to get married. These two are in for a surprise once they wake up from their endorphin haze and start having to assert their own opinions in the relationship. I have a feeling Mariah isn’t going to be having children anytime soon, and is just saying what she thinks her new husband wants to hear.
Here’s Mariah Carey’s Bye Bye video featuring Nick Cannon:

How can you get married before you’ve had your first fight??
My mama always said you have to see the worst in a person before you can be certain of their character.
This one’s going the way of a Pam Anderson wedding, without the STD’s.
-
No one can be certain about the STD’s, headache
-
That woman is CRAZY and VERY immature for her age!
-
She got a Mrs. Cannon tattoo….. What an idiot. I wonder what she’ll get to cover it up in 3 months?
-
I just kinda assumed the reason she married him was to have a lil pre-designed baby…
I hate being pessimistic about things, but I’m guessing baby, divorce.

These two need children like I need a hole in my head. Play house, quietly divorce and go back to your self centered lives. I have read that Mariah is good to her family, that is cool, but she should never have children. Being the drop in , goo goo aunt is best for her.

Uh don’t know if it’s good acting on Nick’s part but he really seems into her and she’s dressed surprisingly conservatively (for her)in this video. As to them having kids, I doubt she’s planning on having any anytime soon, (she’s too career driven) no matter how in lurve they think they are.
-
She’s pregnant.
-
shes still annoying as hell…..how the fuk do you feel violated by having a baby? What a fuking idiot moron!
-
PIXY made me snort!
-
I assumed she would be pregnant in about 6 months when I heard about this marriage. She like 39 years old.
-
I expect the ‘It’s a girl for Mimi’ headlines in the tabs shortly. Quickie pre-nup and a quickie marriage before her belly starts to pooch out.
-
She’s pretty flakey; I wouldn’t expect consistency in her statements. Her wants probably shift with her mood. She’s prone to breakdowns when she overworks though, and kids are a lot of work. Especially for someone that seems to need as much sleep though.
-
I would say her present husband playing with her, afterwards to get her money…

“…we’re both eternally 12 years old.” Yep, that about sums it up!
