Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon Celebrate Their 1st Wedding Anniversary
Some folks said that it wouldn’t last but Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon managed to successfully make it thru one year of happily wedded bliss as they celebrated their first anniversary last night at the Palms Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV. Touched by the moving tributes to the couple, Mimi openly cried as she celebrated her marriage to her hubby Nick Cannon. Here are a few pics from last night’s celebration and some info on what went down at the shindig:

Where has the time gone? With smiles on their faces, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon celebrated one year of wedded bliss Thursday in Las Vegas at the Palms Casino Resort. “It’s a very special occasion,” Cannon told the crowd at Moon Nightclub, where he was deejaying, “toast to everyone.” After a very private wedding a year ago, the couple decided to do the opposite for their anniversary, celebrating with a nightclub full of people. The couple did, however, dine in a private room at Simon beforehand. Once inside the club, the couple were greeted with a four-foot birthday cake. And the surprises kept coming – at least for Carey. Unbeknownst to her, Cannon produced a video of the couple’s last year, including video of intimate moments. After the video was shown, Carey was seen crying. “This is the most amazing person in the world,” Cannon said into the microphone about his wife. “I dedicate my life to her daily, and together this union is gonna last forever. She is my rock.” Carey replied: “I have the best man in the whole wide world.” The gushfest continued after a balloon drop and a clubwide toast, which Cannon dedicated to his wife.
Where has the time gone, indeed! I cannot believe it’s been a whole year! I remember when we caught wind that they crazy kids went and got hitched and I, too, was among the detractors that didn’t see how their union would be able to stand the test of time. I am very happy to be proved wrong … even tho they have only made it to their one year anniversary, I think they’ve proven (not that they needed to at all) that they are in it for the long haul. Mariah Carey isn’t usually one to show this much emotion … that she would so openly cry at a tribute like this is very touching. I’m so happy that she’s found someone to share her life with. I’m pretty sure I’ll go back to making fun of their relationship from time to time but, for now, I’m happy to celebrate their anniversary. May Mr. & Mrs. Cannon have many more anniversary celebrations to come!!

I don’t care much for Mariah, but she looks genuinely happy! Good for her!
May 1st, 2009 at 1:29 pm
Congrats but DAMN girl has been eating way too much celebratory cake!!
May 1st, 2009 at 1:41 pm
Oh my goodness she is falling out of her dress…

Pssht a year aint nothing…maybe in celebrity years but in the real world it takes more than just one year to declare a marriage a success. Wait for the real times to begin before you eat any celebratory cake.

I’m so so so so happy for her, but definitely looks a little bigger. But nevertheless, she looks good.
May 1st, 2009 at 2:21 pm
she looks so different. i agree she has put some weight on. but her age is starting to show also.
May 1st, 2009 at 3:27 pm
WHOA! She looks… big. I mean, Mariah has always been curvy but for Godsakes woman! Dress your own age! You ain’t in yo 20’s, gurrrrl.

calling Oprah…someone else gained all the weight back too.

she should really wear a dress that fits her appropriately for her size, its like trying to fit a watermelon into an orange peel

While I never want to call someone a size 8-10 fat, she really would have looked better if she dressed for her size. With the money she has she could have had that same dress made 2 sizes bigger with a little more coverage in the cleavage area, and maybe another 2 inches in length, and she would have looked amazing.
It’s one thing if you are actually 19 years old am don’t know how to dress for your weight, but this woman is in her what… 40’s? 50’s?, and she has stylists etc up the wazoo.
Fire the stylist and get one that knows what she’s doing.

I am a HUGE Lamb, but I can’t stand Nick Cannon. Whatever keeps her happy though makes me happy. I hope it lasts, but I doubt it will. I LOVE YOU MARIAH!

mariah looks so old next to nick.
May 1st, 2009 at 7:16 pm
im happy that this was one relationship is aid would make it and so far it is. i wouldnt look to much into her weight, it could be just from drinking (sadly it happens to me too). but they both look real happy, so congrats to them :)

Did she get fat again? She better just stop dieting and keep at the weight she is now…

Does anyone else think that he could be using Mariah like she used Tommy Motolla? This is my theory anyways. I have always wanted to see Mariah in a pair of COMFY jeans (not skin tight) and a t-shirt. i think she could look pretty in every day clothes instead of having to squeeze her body intot hese smallish outfits that make her look silly.

Very unflattering photos of Mariah. Sweet ceremony, but Nick’s creep factor went up significantly what I read about him secretly videotaping the last year- including intimate moments?!!

She looks happy. :) But she should try to be fitter.
May 2nd, 2009 at 10:00 am
Daaaaang she is HUGE and WAY huge for that dress…she looks ridiculous.
May 2nd, 2009 at 10:12 am
I don’t think she looks very big at all. Her boobs are another story. :)
May 2nd, 2009 at 11:18 am
Why can she not find clothes that fit? Why has no one ever told her that falling out of your clothes isn’t necessarily sexy? Yipes!

jADED, mariah is 38 or 39, not 40 or 50, what the hell, she was like 20 in 1991, how old are you 13? OR 90, you don’t have to be a fan to KNOW this stuff, wtf? and erin, where did you ever hear that Mariah used Mottola, if anything it was the other way around, Tommy likes them young and beautiful and at 19 , Mariah fit the bill, plus on top of that a young mega talent, he was able to guide her , gain her confidence, provide her a mentor and became her lover at the time, I don’t think she had some plan thought up, maybe you saw some interview nobody else in the world ever saw. She gains weight during her off time, kinda like Janet Jackson, if she puts out another album she’ll lose it again. she’s happy so

Let me get his straight? Lindsay and Sam are too skinny, anorexic and therefore old, gross etc and need to gain. Mariah is too fat and *GASP* starting to look like a 38 year old (her age) … so do we want them fat or thin?? because many commentors here at hypocrites!
May 3rd, 2009 at 11:22 pm
*are*
May 4th, 2009 at 1:04 pm

May 14th, 2009 at 7:02 am
