IT'S A WRAP! NEWLYWEDS MARIAH CAREY & NICK CANNON ARE OFFICIALLY THE THIRSTIEST CELEBS IN THE ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY.

What I thought was a rumor concocted by two thirsty celebrities turned out to be oh so real. Mariah Carey, 39, and Nick Cannon, 27, reportedly became husband and wife after exchanging vows during a spontaneous and elaborate wedding ceremony at the singer's home in the Bahamas on Wednesday. The couple's nuptials were confirmed by Linda Cannon, one of Nick's family members. Linda told E! News, "He called and told us all about it. I'm not going to give you any details. If that is what he wants, then we are happy for him." Anyhoo, things began to heat up between the two after Nick teamed up with Mariah for her new video Bye, Bye, Bye back in March. This means Carey and Cannon hadn't dated a whole two months before jumping the broom. Damn, is dude that hard up to be someone's hubby? I mean, really. And if I'm not mistaken, and I know I'm not, Nick pulled this same 'get engaged in a hurry and do it big by letting the whole world know it' type of stunt when he proposed to Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks via the jumbo-tron in New York City's Time Square....just four months after meeting her in Las Vegas during All-Star weekend. Five months later, Ebanks spokeswoman claimed the couple called off their engagement in order 'to focus on their careers but still very much love each other and remain the best of friends.' But what's more bizarre are reports claiming Carey has refused to sign a pre-nuptial agreement before marrying for a second time (she married Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola in 1993...then divorced him in 1998) which has her family and close friends worried.

Oh well. I hope she's satisfied. She always said that she would only date male celebrities because only a man living in the media spotlight can understand the perils of fame. "That's a big deal for me - feeling like somebody else can't fully understand me because they're not in show business. It shouldn't matter, but it does, because the energy it takes to be 'on' is a lot." This is Carey's second marriage. As for the hoopla surrounding Carey's engagement ring, her PR team have put to rest rumors that Nick had given her the same ring he placed on his ex-fiance Selita Ebanks' finger earlier last year. Carey's folks have confirmed the singer's ring is a flawless, platinum, 17-carat custom-made Jacob & Company bauble loaded with pink and lavendar diamonds which set Cannon back about $2.5 million.

I am so through with this madness.
