NEW YORK (AP) — Nick Cannon is cast as Mariah Carey's lover in her new video — but has the superstar diva given the young actor a considerably bigger role in real life? According to several published reports, Carey, 38, married Cannon, 27, on Wednesday. Neither Carey's publicist nor Cannon's manager returned requests from The Associated Press for comment.

If the pair did indeed wed, it would be a whirlwind romance. Word that the two were seeing each other first surfaced in the last few weeks. Last Saturday, Carey was seen sporting a huge diamond ring on her finger at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her movie, "Tennessee," in which she plays a waitress. Cannon was at her side at the party. Speculation swirled that the couple were engaged.

Latina.com was first to report that the two got married, at Carey's home in the Bahamas. Friday's New York Post also has the pair wed and E! Online quoted a relative of Cannon's as saying that he called his family and confirmed the news.

"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, identified simply as a family member, was quoted telling E!

Cannon has put out a rap album, but is best known for his role in the movie "Drumline" and a Nickelodeon TV series (yes, Nickelodeon — Cannon is 11 years Carey's junior). He's featured in Carey's upcoming video for "Bye Bye."

While Carey and Cannon (or is it the Cannons?) were playing coy, the famed jeweler Jacob & Co. was quick to publicize its apparent role in the reputed union with a press release touting the ring Cannon reportedly gave her.

The release described it as "crafted from platinum and features a square emerald cut fancy light pink diamond as the center stone surrounded by 58 intense pink diamonds and two half moon diamonds on each side.

"The total carat weight of the ring — center stone is 10 carats — is a jaw-dropping 17 carats with a value of $2.5 million."

Cannon does have experience with engagement rings. The actor, who has previously romanced singer Christina Milian and voluptuous reality star Kim Kardashian, last year gave a 15-carat stone to Victoria's Secret model Selita Ebanks as he proposed in grand fashion — on the Jumbotron in New York's Times Square. Cameras were flashing as she said yes. They split just a few months later.

The Carey-Cannon match is already getting considerably more ink, leaving some to wonder whether it's a publicity stunt: After all, she's just released a No. 1 album ("EMC2" is on the top of the charts), and he has at least four movies due out this year.

But then again, Carey is one of the most successful artists in music, and hardly needs a marriage to get her attention: She's already scored a No. 1 hit off the album with "Touch My Body."

This would be Cannon's first marriage but Carey's second. She famously wed top music executive Tommy Mottola in an extravagant wedding in 1993. They had a bitter divorce in 1998.

I don't care about age difference but Mariah Carey can do better than Nick Cannon.

its the new craze, marriage and babies among celebrities. Nothing new.

nothing wrong with that, but Mariah Carey could have and should have done better than that. she needs someone like her, not no kid comedian.

This is sad and embarrasing for Maraih, how she gong to be taken seriously with a husband like Nick Cannon,
Mariah lost some respect from me because I expected more and better from her.

would you have preferred she married James Earl Jones?

You people fall for anything

Nick Cannon ko, Nick Nolte ni

There's nothing a 38 yearl old woman knows that a 27 year old man doesn't know.
Women live longer than men.
women outlive their husbands by more than a decade in most instances.
She actually did the right thing.
Good planning Mariah!

Really, but since when did we become judges of who can marry who? I don't understand how you think your "loss of respect" for someone who has never met you makes any difference to her marriage.

Allow her some breathing space please. She's 38, she deserves some love even if its from someone you don't approve of.

because girls act more mature so to find someone who matches your maturity, you go with someone older, on the older hand some guys (not all) still act like they are in high school and i'm talking 30 and 40 year olds.

lol

These celebrities are usually immature.
Have you seen Mariah doing interviews?
With those little girly movements,facial expressions and smiles, she is not mentally 38,I put her at about 19
How about her trashy teenage dressing?

(Can't you see Brittany Spears,mentally she's about 16.)
So Mariah really did marry her senior mentally speaking.

LOL.
I was thinking Condoleeza at first.
