Mariah Carey engaged?

By Alexandra Heilbron on April 30, 2008 | 11 Comments


Mariah CareyMariah Carey was spotted wearing a 17-carat diamond ring on her ring finger last week, and though she refuses to say whether it’s an engagement ring, a source confirmed to pagesix.com that it’s definitely from her boyfriend, actor Nick Cannon, and that two are now engaged. Cannon paid $2.5 million at Jacob & Co. last week for the ring, and the witness overheard Cannon telling Jacob Arabo that he and Mariah are set to marry. The ring has a 10-carat center stone, and is made of rare pink and purple diamonds. However, when Cannon, who’s been engaged before, dropped by MTV on Monday, was asked about the engagement rumors, he squirmed, saying, “I can’t even know what to say. She’s probably the most festive, remarkable person I’ve ever met. Good friend.” The two have been linked together for less than a month, when People.com ran a piece on their trip to Las Vegas.

    That’s just nuts it’s not like he’s the richest star in Hollywood yet he goes out and buys her this 2.5 million dollar ring. She has a lot more money than he will ever have.

    It’s really crazy these days when everything is about money in Hollywood and this World we live in. It’s not like she said honey please don’t get me anything expensive I love you the way you are. It’s like please go bankrupt and buy me the hugest monstrous ring because I need more things to make me happy!

    Wow when a person needs more and more it just blows my mind and what about the people who can’t even get bread to eat. Right on Mariah you guys just make me SICK!

    She was born in 1969 and he was born in 1980.

    So Nick is 11 years older than her.

    Yes he is younger by 11 years. This is not a new concept. I have been with a guy 12 years younger for five years. It has been the best relationship I have ever had. It is all what you make of it.

    Well, they say that men hit their sexual peak when they are young and women when they are older.

    I’d never go with a guy younger than me, the maturity level is sooooooo low! My man is 2 years older than me and really that’s not enough.
