What's REALLY Hood Mr. & Mrs. Cannon?

May 02 | by Natasha

Hollywood folks have for real lost their damn minds behind these publicity stunts. Nick Cannon's stepmother Linda Cannon has confirmed to E! that Nick has indeed married the pink yet lavender butterfly that is Mariah Carey:

"Yes, we know," she says. "He called us and told us all about it. We are happy for him. If that is what he wants then we are happy for him."

I promise y'all I didn't know until last week that Nick and MiMi even knew each other. And I know Selita is somewhere extra pissy that she dealt with his corny ass for a long minute and didn't even get past the engagement. But he went and married MiMi like this ish was on a dare or something. Sources say the ultra private nuptials took place--with Da Brat in tow--at MiMi's new Bahamas crib. I guess sneak-up weddings are the new black. Stop the madness Nariah. Confused on how all this could happen? Check out the posts leading up to these "nuptials" here, here, here, and here. Still confused? Don't worry--we are too.

selita has no reason to be

selita has no reason to be pissy about anything. women don't have to hold their breaths hoping a man will 'marry them.' i'm sure she won't have any problem finding a partner who's not so corny that some woman would actually want to marry him...

why is everyone so under with

why is everyone so under with the weddings? when i do it, i'm shouting it from the rooftops. celebrities know that they lose their privacy once they sign on the dotted line. mariah is really big, and nick ain't broke (he's not tommy mottola, but i'm sure he's got his loot) and while on the outside they make an interesting looking couple, i'm with the family member, 'if that's what he wants to do (after 3 dates) then do that..' i'm thinking cannon got some undercover business that may have mariah putting on some clothes now.. consider marc anthony and lopez...she's been quiet ever since they got back together... whatev..

[quote comment="83061"]this better not be true because he'll take her for all she's worth and destroy her public image if they ever break up did she not learn anything from Britney and K-Fed and Whitney and Bobby Brown and if this turns out to be a publicty stunt for her album that would be more damaging i hope this just a rumor[/quote] What public image?! The public image of her doing a strip tease on MTV? The emotional breakdown? Her refusal to wear clothes? If anything, his public image is better than hers. I'm not hating on Mariah, but let's be real. Nick Cannon may not have as much money as her, but he does have his own money. Let's not compare him to Bobby "King of Rock-n-Blunts" Brown.

Mila T- I think the problem

Mila T- I think the problem that people are having is the fact that Nick may be pushing 30 but he doesnt have the look of a distinguished man. He's like a kid. To me he could be 21 forever and I would never question it.

How dare you compare Nick

How dare you compare Nick Cannon to K-Fed or Bobby Brown. They are both losers! Even though Nick is silly as hell, he has a good head on his shoulders and LOTS of money. The two you mentioned are BROKE!! Nick writes, directs and produces his shows....cha ching! Mariah not THAT damn stupid, and neither is he. Give the guy a break....There is still such a thing as love at first sight!

[quote comment="83088"]I wish people will stop saying that Nick Cannon is broke. I am def not a fan of his but he has some cash on his side as well. MTV is paying that cat for like three or four shows. If they are married who cares? Let Hollywood people do what they want, there are plenty more worthless marriages out in the general public. if she is married I am happy for her, I always imagined she would end up alone with all that money and no one[/quote] I have always thought the same thing. I glad for Mariah! But, I do believe that she wants a family and I think he wants the same thing. It is the Hollywood Trend. JLO, Usher, Halle, Maybe Beyonce. Now Mariah will be next. She is not all that young, so I can see why she did it and at least she is doing it in order. Marriage then the baby! Congrats to the happy couple! I was a little concerned about the age, but people are right men marry younger women all the time. So, why can't we. May Blessing come each of them.

Thats why the video keeps getting postponed from premiering they trying to make it believable and keep the Mariah hype to get that 19th and 20th number 1 single. but if true she didnt sign a prenup so Nick my brotha is bout to get some bank. but its whateva....

Wow - what's with all the

Wow - what's with all the hateration?! I actually like Nick Cannon. He grew on me. He stays outta trouble, and has fun while still maintaining a great attitude! I still bump his "Gigilo" song w/ R. Kelly. It's all in fun people, come on! Why are we so judgmental and condescending of these folks we dont even know? It doesnt matter if shes "not Black enough" for some (how ignint that in 2008?? How is Barack Obama Black to us, but Mimi is not just cuz her hair is straighter???!), she is a tremendously successful woman of color and I'm proud of her for that!! She's the chic who came up with using Black choirs in secular songs like 15 years ago. Now everywhere you look there is a Black choir added in the mix, rap songs, awards shows, presedential inagurations, etc. It's nice to see a handsome young Black man make his own money without *degrading women*, embarassing his momma and just being an ignint fool in the process!! He is a little odd, helloooo so is Mariah! She is very *special* but I have been a fan of hers since the beginning. Sometimes I want to just shake her and be like Mimi - change it up!!! Why the same style all the time, the same dress in 78 diff colors, LOL, but hey, I give her major props for being true to herself. She doesnt need to reinvent herseld every 3 years to stay relevent. Mariah is a true individual and does what she wants no matter what the haters and lonely people say! I admire that in her and if she and Nick can make it, I'm happy for them. I do think she and the brat have something too, but hey, whatever. I like these 2 goofy folks together!!! Stop hatin! I admit, it may be all publicity, but I hope it's not...

WOW, is it really this hard

WOW, is it really this hard to believe they may really have something? how many people in normal life situations get married quickly? ALOT, though yes the divorce rate is high! I don't know Nick or Mariah personally, and only they and God know what they might or might have done is right and I wish them all the best! And I cannot believe how much they are getting hated on! They aren't even SUSPECT people like that...it's not like Mariah is some shady b*tch nor is Nick some drug slinging criminal who is arrested every other month. He does his MTV shows, his little movies here and there, and his little rap game, MC does music and movies, and as we all know she loves hip hop...how do they not have anything in common?! From what I know she loves to laugh and he probably makes her laugh with his silly ways. The boy is almost 28, and Mariah is 38...she looks GREAT for her age, and Nick is starting to look a bit more mature. If they are happy, good for them! As far as the no prenup, thats speculation (well all of this is truly speculation) until their reps confirm or deny, but I highly doubt MC will let Nick Cannon walk away with half of her 300 million + fortune in the event of an anullment or divorce. I don't believe this to be a pr stunt, but if it is this makes them look way bad, and if they are married, and not just on vacation in the Bahamas, i wish them much happiness and blessings and I hope people stop talking sh*t about em, when they don't even know them! pfft
