Contrary to expectations, Mariah Carey's newlywed husband Nick Cannon couldn't be happier. No, he's NOT complaining about being "Mr Carey." In fact, Nick is telling friends that life has never been better. He and Mariah continue to work on their own careers separately, but Nick is experiencing a new notoriety. He has been pitching ideas for TV shows etc, and doors are swinging open for him - simply because a lot more people know who he is now. So far Nick is delighted with the side benefits of being married to Mariah.

America's Next Top Model made Nigel Barker famous, but it was three seasons into the show before we realized he wasn't gay. It just seemed like a given - he was so handsome and artistic and sensitive and well spoken. We were WRONG, and surprised to learn he's married to another model, Cristen Chin, and the father of Jack , with another baby on the way. So much for OUR gaydar.

Liv Tyler separated from her musician husband Royston Langdon because she was tired of being the breadwinner and felt like she had all the responsibility in the relationship. We hear that after weeks of being single, she realized it wasn't that much fun and wants to give their marriage another try. She missed her husband. Their little boy Milo is happy too. So are we.

Frankly, we've always wondered how pretty Shawn Southwick managed to wake up every day and see Larry King's face on the next pillow. Now we know. Since she just entered rehab to get a grip on her addiction to painkillers (for migraines) it looks like she was nicely sedated for much of their wedded bliss. Painkillers tend to make it easier to put up with certain things. Just how will Shawn view her May - December marriage after she leaves rehab with clear senses?

Mariah Carey showed off her new husband Nick Cannon in New York the other night. She has never looked happier - and look- no SPANDEX! The pair, who did not have a pre-nup, haven't had time to pick up a marriage license in the US, so the island wedding isn't legal yet. That leaves plenty of time for those pre-nup discussions. They're expected to fly to LA this weekend and have a wedding blowout for their west coast friends who couldn't make it to the ceremony. Just fifty or sixty people at a private home.

Things are moving AWFULLY fast for Mariah Carey. We broke the news that she was secretly dating Nick Cannon a month ago and it was last week before anyone else caught on. Just days ago the engagement rumor surfaced when Mariah flashed a giant diamond ring that Nick gave her. The ring is EXACTLY the same as the publicized million dollar ring that Nick gave to his LAST fiancee, model Selita Ebanks, who gave it back after they split. Before Mariah realized she had a second hand ring, she was swept off to a tropical island where it is rumored they impulsively got married yesterday. We're thinking that IF it happened, it was not a legally binding ceremony because there was no time for a pre-nup. Nick IS the ideal antidote for Mariah's dismal marriage to her older ex music mogul Tommy Mottola. Where Tommy was older and controlling, Nick is younger than Mariah, and fun-loving.
