“It was a love-at-first-sight thing. Since we’ve been together, we’ve been inseparable,” Cannon tells the next issue of People, on stands Friday.
On April 30, just five days after he popped the question on the rooftop of her New York apartment building, the two were walking down the aisle on a white carpet at sunset at the beach on her estate in the Bahamas. He wore Balenciaga. She wore an off-white dress by Nile Cmylo. “And (Christian) Louboutins — I can wear high heels with Nick because he’s tall. Flats are not in my repertoire,” she says.
The two, who met at the 2005 Teen Choice Awards, began dating in late March. At the time, they had begun shooting the video for her single Bye Bye. He was cast as the romantic lead. “From the first time we sat down to discuss the video at the Beverly Hills Hotel, we connected. … I was able to be myself with her,” he says. “We are both eternally 12 years old.”
Some friends knew the couple were getting serious, she says. “One thing (few people) knew was we got tattoos a few weeks earlier. So anyone who saw my (”Mrs. Cannon”) tattoo wasn’t surprised,” she says.
“To me rings are special and exciting, but tattoos mean more than anything. They’re forever and ever,” says Cannon, who has “Mariah” tattooed on his back.
And what about children? “It’s part of the whole purpose of getting married,” Carey says. “I’d just want our children to have the best childhood and upbringing they possibly could.”

Two hurt in Andrew Road crash
Two people were taken to the hospital after their car left Andrew Road, half a mile east of Illinois 29, near Sherman and slid down an embankment about 10 p.m. Thursday.
The car flipped onto the driver’s side, coming to rest in a ditch, said Sangamon County sheriff’s Sgt. Tim Mazrim.
Deputies did not know the names of the female driver or her male passenger, but noted the man was conscious and alert when they arrived. The semi-consciousness female was extricated from the vehicle by Sherman and Illinois Air Guard firefighters after being trapped inside for nearly 45 minutes. The extent of their injuries was unknown.
An Athens resident, Patricia Schnapp, 41, said the car had been following her vehicle from Peoria Road, and it was veering across traffic lanes.

Middle-aged men are going under the needle to get a ‘poker-face’, says Danielle Gusmaroli
The quest for eternal youth, men are finally catching up with women. The modern male has now discovered a weapon that females have had in their armoury for more than a decade: the Botox injection.
Since its launch in Britain almost 14 years ago, Botox has become the fastest-growing treatment in the cosmetics industry.
Marketed as a quick anti-ageing fix, it is used by 100,000 Britons a year. And according to statistics published last week by Transform, Britain’s leading cosmetic surgery group, a fifth of all patients are now men. In the past 12 months, there’s been a 50 per cent increase in male patients signing up for the treatment.
The Harley Medical Group, which has 11 clinics nationwide, says 45 per cent of its clients requesting such non-surgical treatment are male, mostly from “metrosexual” centres such as London, Manchester and Brighton.
Botox for men is such big business that it’s even got a nickname: Boytox. The growing acceptance among men has been fuelled by celebrities.
“Botox is no more unusual than toothpaste,” says X-Factor judge Simon Cowell, 48. “It works. You do it once a year. Who cares?”
Certainly not Cliff Richard, 67, Donny Osmond, 49, or Peter Andre, 35, who have all admitted to some muscle-freezing jabs. Male executives are not taking to lunchtime injections in greater numbers just to smooth away the signs of ageing. The treatment – which contains botulinum toxin-A, a bacterial nerve poison that causes a serious form of food poisoning known as botulism – reduces elasticity in the forehead. This makes men look more inscrutable, which enhances their authority in the boardroom. Apparently, the same “freezing” effect that gives some women a startled appearance leaves men with a poker-faced assertiveness.
