Mariah Carey's Wedding-Bell Blues

by celebuzz on Jun. 13, 2008 03:29 PM / 5 Comments

Mariah Carey just can't catch a break in this mean old world.

The singer, who tied the knot with Nick Cannon in a small Bahamian ceremony last month, had hoped to hold a more elaborate ceremony back in the States. Unfortunately, it looks like financial complications may put the kibosh on the celebration, according to MSNBC.

"The small wedding in the Bahamas was nice, but it was not Mariah's style. The lady loves a spectacle," notes a Carey insider.

Unfortunately, Mimi had "hoped to pay for the wedding...through the sale of photos. No one was interested."

What's that? How could this be? Doesn't the media realize how big an opportunity this is, how rare it is for Mariah Carey to have her picture taken? The woman is such a recluse, many Americans are convinced that she's some type of legend like Bigfoot or the Loch Ness Monster.

Oh, well, even if the media has no love for Mimi, Cannon is still well on his way to becoming the most subservient husband ever. According to In Touch Weekly, when the Roll Bounce actor visited the Oahu, Hawaii, set of her "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time" video, he made sure not to arrive empty-handed.

Nick reportedly picked up some sweets for her at See's Candies, before buying her a little something at Tiffany & Co., which he "put in a regular paper bag, so he could surprise her."

Bet she'd really be surprised if he didn't show up with something for her.

“Even though she’s worth roughly a kajillion dollars and none of them were invited to her and Nick Cannon’s wedding, Mariah Carey still wants wedding gifts from her friends. An insider told the "New York Post":

“Mariah’s assistant, Gina, sent out over 100 e-mails to her wealthy friends letting them know that she’s registered at Bergdorf Goodman if they want to buy her a present. It’s odd because she’s not even having a big wedding party or anything. It was assumed they’d have a big celebration when they got back, but no. They just want the gifts.” On the list are “fine china, very expensive silver stemware” and other items."

They asked for presents from people they didn’t even invite? With that kind of behavior hopefully the “other items” Mariah and Nick registered for included “taste,” “class,” and “decorum.” And what do those two need from Bergdorf Goodman anyway? With Mariah’s penchant for emotional breakdowns, it would’ve made more sense if they had registered at Pfizer . . . or Planned Parenthood.*

*It’s the gift that keeps on giving.”

“Poor Mariah Carey, she had to ditch her second wedding plans. A source said that Mariah and hubby Nick Cannon hoped to have a lavish wedding celebration that would involve millions of dollars and dozens of bridesmaids, however, the only problem was no one was interested. A source said:

“The small wedding in the Bahamas was nice, but it was not Mariah’s style. The lady loves a spectacle.”

The problem was that:

“Mariah was willing to pay for the wedding, but the way she hoped to pay for the wedding was through the sale of photos. No one was interested.”

Ouch. That must've hurt.”
