Can you believe it’s been almost a year since the world was shocked – SHOCKED! – by the nuptials between Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey? Though the couple’s first anniversary won’t be until the end of April, Nick has already gotten his wife her present – a Jack Russell terrier puppy named Cha-Cha. I’m 95% sure this was just to get the “oooh, they’re practicing for a baby!” rumors going. Which certainly worked on Us Weekly.
Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon – who celebrate their one-year anniversary in May – are prepping for parenthood: They bought a dog.
“I got her a short-haired Jack Russell terrier — a girl, named Cha-Cha. She’s 8 weeks,” Cannon, 28, told Usmagazine.com Saturday at a concert in Coconut Grove, Fla.
He and Carey, 39, secretly wed in Eleuthera in the Bahamas last spring.
Cannon said being married to Carey is “the most amazing thing ever. I couldn’t wish for anything else. She’s the most incredible woman. Being in a strong union and being there for each other is something that I’d never really experienced before, so to experience it with my wife is remarkable. We’re together as one, and that’s important to me.”
He was mum on their anniversary plans, but told Us, “We never went on a honeymoon, so I guess I can tell you we’ll probably go to Barbados.”
Asked if there are any babies in the near future, he laughed.

For whatever reason, I like Mariah Carey. I think she has better staying power than most. But she strikes me as the sort who’d do best having several dogs that are like her kids. Mariah is a known diva. To the point that I’m sure she was one long before she was ever famous. I just have a hard time imagining her being able to tend to a child the way they’d need – especially once they weren’t small and cute. But tiny dogs? Those things stay small and cute forever. I think that’s the perfect present. Mariah and Nick are currently in Barbados – I guess on their belated honeymoon. It’s also her 39th birthday. Despite the dog, something tells me those baby rumors are going to triple by the end of the month.

my husband would hold the purse but I’m not sure about strapping it on and carrying like it was his own. lol
They seems happy and strangely fitting. Here’s to Nick carrying the dog in a pick LV satchel

Is he wearing a man purse????? Mmmmkay… ;0)
I like this pair–Mimi should have a hottie to cater to her every need! He knows his place and he’s doing a good job.
She already had a JRT though, so I don’t know how getting a new one would be “practice”, it was just a thoughtful gift on Nick’s part.
What’s a Russell Terrier anniversary? i think you meant Russell Terrier FOR their anniversary.
What do you give someone that has everything?
I also like Mariah. She has a little girl quality that is endearing. And she may be a diva, but she is one in the most hilarious ways (like the time she had to have a red carpet lined with candles as she entered a restaurant), sans the nastiness you get from other divas. “Entitled bitch” never crosses my mind about Mariah (unlike Victoria Beckham, Paris Hilton, JLo, etc.). I’ve never heard of her mistreating anyone, either. She’s her own daffy self living in a pink world with her new husband, who seems to adore her. More power to them.
Does this new dog mean that he isn’t giving her a baby anytime soon? She was probably nagging him about having children so he got her a dog to shut her up for the mean time.
Choice of dog says a lot about people. I had expected her to be into tiny accessory lapdogs, but JRT are firecrackers – makes me see them both in a new light.
JRT’s require a lot. I hope they didn’t get him because he looks like Eddie.
