Fox News, the New York Post and E! Online have all confirmed that Nick Cannon and Mariah Carrey secretly got married this week, probably at Mariah’s new house in the Bahamas.  E! Online says…

Family member Linda Cannon has confirmed to E! News that the couple are, in fact, married.
"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."
Linda Cannon wouldn't confirm an earlier report that had the impromptu nuptials taking place yesterday at Carey's new home in the Bahamas, only that Nick and his platinum-selling girlfriend have made it official.
"I’m not going to give you any details, but we are happy for him."
Earlier today, a rep for jeweler Jacob & Co. confirmed that Cannon shelled out $2.5 million for the 17-carat finger candy spotted recently on Carey's left hand.

What a touching story.  These two kids had nothing but 800 million dollars and a heart filled with love when they got together last month.  It's a tale of romance that will span through time, right up until she gets it annulled next week.

Us magazine, quoting Latina magazine, says now that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have gotten married, even though it hasn’t even been confirmed that the two are dating, much less engaged.  Us says…

The two got hitched in a small ceremony on an island Wednesday, according to the magazine. They quote a source as saying it was "very impulsive."
Rapper Da Brat attended, the magazine says.
Cannon's ex-fiancée, model Selita Ebanks, tells Usmagazine.com, "I have no comment but wish them well."
Longtime pals, Carey, 38, and the 27-year-old rapper-actor connected when he directed the video for her latest single, "Bye Bye," in late March.

Nick Cannon isn’t wasting any time. He’s like a lion that sees a limping gazelle.  And it’s not surprising.  This dude really really loves spending money, so marrying Mariah Carrey is a good plan if you like tons of money but happen to suck at doing things.

POORLY THOUGHT OUT UPDATE:  Now the New York Post confirms the story, adding that – and this is fucking unbelievable considering shes worth hundreds of millions and he's worth whatever his pastel sweaters cost – there was no pre-nup:

Mariah Carey got secretly hitched to her 27-year-old boyfriend-of-one-month, shocking the chart-topping songbird's family and friends, The Post has learned.
Carey married little-screen actor Nick Cannon at the home Carey just bought in Eleuthera, the Bahamas, a source close to the singer said.
"They have been smitten with each other for days, weeks," the friend said. "And she's always had a crush on him."
But not everyone is so over the moon.
"There was no pre-nup – there wasn't time," said another worried source.

So a rich older lady and a young smooth talking Lothario rush off to an island and get married with no pre-nup?  Oh okay.  After Nick kills her, I think a good name for the movie would be, "The Decapitation of Mimi". 

Access Hollywood say that Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are engaged, even though Mariah is 11 years older than Nick, and they’ve only dated for a few months.  AH says…

A source close to Mariah has confirmed to Access Hollywood that the music diva is engaged to Nick Cannon.
The couple sent the rumor mill into overdrive when 38-year-old Mariah (with Nick on her arm) was seen sporting a dazzling new piece of bling on her ring finger at the after party for her Tribeca film, “Tennessee,” in New York.

Nick was engaged to Victoria's Secret Model Selita Eubanks but they broke up before the weeding, which is relevant because some are saying that Nick gave Mariah Selita's old ring.  Here’s a side by side of both, Mariah’s on the right.  It might be the same.  Or not.  What am I, a private detective?
