Mariah Carey and Bryan Tanaka are still together, dined at Nobu


I always say that nothing says love like Miso Black Cod. Well, I don’t always say it, but a delicious Japanese dinner can often fan the flames of desire. Testing this theory were Mariah Carey and her backup dancing beau, Bryan Tanaka, who enjoyed a meal at famed Beverly Hills eatery Nobu on Thursday. Yes, they are still a thing for the moment.

Mariah, still dressing age-inappropriately at 47, wore skin tight jeans ripped at the knee, sky high black patent leather heels and the obligatory cleavage-bearing top. Bryan dressed in a style befitting his 34 years in shorts, a t-shirt and sneakers. Doesn’t anyone dress up to go to a nice dinner anymore? I guess not. Sigh.

Mimi recently wrapped up another run if shows at Caesar’s Palace in Las Vegas. Proud boyfriend Bryan posted a photo from one of her last shows on Instagram on Wednesday with the gushing caption, “In honor of a wonderful experience, a spectacular show, awesome crowds, an amazing cast and crew, and most importantly the Queen herself who pours her heart and soul into her music and shows… “It was a stone groove babay!” Congratulations to your #1toInfinity residency at @caesarspalace in Las Vegas!!! #MariahCarey #MuchLove.” Looks like somebody knows which side his bread is buttered but I still think he’s nothing more than the flavor of the moment.

Mariah will be back in Sin City in December for five “All I Want for Christmas Is You” shows. In the meantime, she is on the road with Lionel Richie for the All the Hits Tour, which kicked off on Friday in Oakland. The chanteuse got good reviews for her show, probably because she ditched the background dancers and was unable to recreate her infamous beyond lazy “choreography” that got the internet in a tizzy last week.

Mariah reposted a fan’s photo to her Instagram from the show:

The singer also shared another fan video to Twitter enthusiastically thanking her fans. Let’s hope she can keep her energy level up this time around. I don’t know about you, but frankly she’s exhausting me.

    I can’t decide if I think he’s good looking or not. Sometimes he looks like a giant douchebag, and other times I find him handsome.

  2. Clare says:

    He is like her professional fluffer, isn’t he?

  3. Nicole says:

    She’s such a hot mess. That “lazy” choreography is probably due to all the crap she’s rumored to be taking. That video was beyond insane

    • Tiffany says:

      Mariah was never into dancing and choreography. I still laugh she I see her attempt it in the music video for Honey.

  4. Enough Already says:

    Be well Mimi and have fun. That is all.

  5. magnoliarose says:

    She has always irritated me in a way unique to her. Her extra is nonstop with no down moments. That video in her body compression stocking lazy dancing was embarrassing but I am sure she made it OK in her mind.
    I have a reality show idea. Lock Mariah and Tangerine in a studio apartment for a week and watch the drama unfold. I think Mariah would win. By day four he would stab himself in the temple with one of her heels and our nation would be saved. I swear she could take him down. Can you imagine if he tried one of his grabby moves on her?

  6. Rice says:

    Unpopular opinion but I hated ripped jeans in the 80’s/90’s and I hate them even more now.

  7. Singtress says:

    I don’t like the ripped jeans thing, but I am wondering what age-appropriate clothing would be for 47.
    Polyester stretch-waste pants, flat white sandals, and a floral top from Target?

    • Barbcat says:

      Singstress, I agree! I am in my late 40’s and have a great figure and personally wear whatever I want. I don’t go to extremes like Mariah, but I wear tight jeans and cleavage-baring shirts when I go out with my husband.

      What does Corey think “old women” like me should wear!

      And I HATE ripped jeans. What a stupid and ugly trend.

      • Corey says:

        Hi Singstress and Barbcat! Meant no offense. According to your definition, Barb, I’m also an “old woman”, but I also have nice jeans and cute tops in my closet. I just think Mariah takes it too far. There’s just too much going on with every outfit. The woman needs to edit, that’s all I’m saying. Keep rocking those jeans and I promise to do the same! 🙂

      • Kiki says:

        I think, as long as you have a body that looks as hell a good for a 20-25 year old I say you can where whatever you want. However, I really don’t like Marian’s outfit because the showing of cleavage is just getting old. Also, she is as broad as Kim Kardashian and she looks just as awful. All or nothing, Mariah Carey looks terrible and it has nothing to do with age. I am younger than she is and I wouldn’t be caught dead in ripped jeans.

  8. Cee says:

    Her “dancing” was the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen. It’s on loop and it makes me so happy.

  9. OTHER RENEE says:

    Fake relationship. Not buying it for a second. And ripped jeans look ridiculous on anyone.

  10. CynicalAnn says:

    So basically he’s getting more money in his paycheck to be appearing to date her? I haven’t liked her since a trip we took to Disneyworld 13 years ago: she had just finished shooting some Christmas special there and our Jungle Cruise director (a young guy) told us that Mariah had refused to stand near handicapped kids during the shoot, and actually said “ewww.” Those Disney people are always upbeat and certainly not supposed to badmouth-but he was obviously just disgusted with her.

  11. Maria says:

    I love Mimi but I have to wonder how it feels to basically pay for a boyfriend? This can’t be good for her self esteem. Even if you push it in the back of your head, it’s there. Unless she is really under the delusion that he’s there for her because of her and not the MC money, fame, lifestyle.

  12. TheOtherViv says:

    He is an accessory, she specializes in that- she also has some amazing Van Cleef & Arpels jewellery sometimes. Dude is an accessory with abs and sweet talk, so props to you Mimi. Like Celine she already has all the handbags she needs.
