Mariah shopping with the twins in Paris day 2



Lovely mom, Mariah Carey was spotted out shopping at the Azzedine Alaia Store in Paris, France on Sautrday afternoon (April 28) topping off her romantic weekend.
The “All I Want for Christmas is You” signer brought along her twins, Moroccan and Monroe but left her hubby, Nick Cannon after the two renewed their vows on Friday night (April 27), and she tweeted, “Tonight was an incredible night, I can't express how amazing it was to renew our vows in Paris at the top of the Eiffel tower.”

“I wanted to create a collection of some of my favorite songs. Several of them are very big hits and some are more obscure favorites of mine as well as fan faves,” Miss Carey said about the two-disc set.

It will be released on May 8.

Mariah Carey & Nick Cannon Renew Vows in Paris

They do – again!

Almost four years after their surprise wedding in the Bahamas, Nick Cannon got down on one knee before Mariah Carey in a reported vow renewal ceremony Friday night in Paris.

With the Eiffel Tower as a backdrop, Carey is seen in photos beaming in a stunning white mermaid dress with spaghetti straps and a black bow at the waist as Cannon, in a white suit and black tie, locks his eyes with hers.

The couple have much to celebrate beyond their four-year anniversary, which falls on Monday. Along with enjoying nearly 1-year-old twins, Cannon appears to be on the mend from frightening health problems, including kidney disease. After leaving the hospital in January, Cannon called Carey his "hero" and "the virtuous person who is my angel." Carey returned the compliment by telling him he was her "incredible husband" who, despite his struggles, was still "all strong and healthy and big."

The couple arrived in France by private jet around 1 a.m. Friday. During the day, Carey was spotted shopping at Baby Dior – the couple's twins turn 1 on Monday – and at the Louis Vuitton flagship store on the Champs-Elysees. Friday night, after they posed for their wedding renewal photos, the couple were spotted dining Le Jules Verne restaurant on the Eiffel Tower.

Mariah and Nick to Renew Vows in City of Lights

Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon are to renew their wedding vows in Paris this week. The couple are to celebrate four years of marriage at a romantic hotel with the Eiffel Tower as the backdrop on Friday evening. While they surprised fans by tying the knot in an intimate ceremony back in 2008, Mariah and Nick have opted for a far more public celebration this time round, inviting the press to capture the romantic moment. The couple will greet media at La Maison Blanche hotel in the romantic city following their vow renewals. The singing superstar and America's Got Talent host wed in secret at a private resort in the Bahamas on April 30, 2008. They had known each other for only a month after meeting on the set of her music video, and have defied critics with their lasting and clearly devoted relationship. At the time, the "Heartbreaker" singer said: "We really do feel we are soulmates. I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me." Their twins Moroccan and Monroe were born on their third wedding anniversary last year. So with the babies turning one on Monday, the extravagant family are set for a double celebration. Nick said they had something special planned while speaking to People magazine last week. "We're taking a break," he said. "It's going to be exciting. We're doing something special and something unique." It has been a trying few months for the couple, with Nick suffering kidney failure earlier this year. Source: UK Daily Mail

The Essential Mariah Carey Celebrates Her First Decade on Columbia, 1990-1999

28-track, 2-CD Collection Contains 14 #1 Hot 100 Hits, Plus Rare Remixes and Selected Album Tracks NEW YORK, April 24, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Mariah Carey's first decade of record-setting hit singles, remixes and fan-favorite album tracks are collected on THE ESSENTIAL MARIAH CAREY. The 28 tracks on this double CD laid the foundation for five-time Grammy Award®-winner Mariah's reign as the top-selling female recording artist in history with over 200 million albums, singles and videos sold worldwide. THE ESSENTIAL MARIAH CAREY , which is an update of 2001's Greatest Hits with four different tracks, will be available everywhere starting May 8th through Columbia Records, a division of SONY MUSIC ENTERTAINMENT. "I wanted to create a collection of some of my favorite songs," explains Mariah. "Several of them are very big hits and some are more obscure favorites of mine as well as fan faves." At the core of this set is the extraordinary run of early RIAA gold, platinum and multi-platinum Billboard Hot 100 #1 hit singles that kept her phenomenal vocal artistry at the forefront of pop music consciousness for that first decade. Fourteen of those chart-toppers are included here: •1990: "Vision Of Love," "Love Takes Time" •1991: "I Don't Wanna Cry," "Emotions" (included here in its 12-Inch Club Mix) •1992: "I'll Be There" (featuring Trey Lorenz) •1993: "Dreamlover," "Hero" •1995: "Fantasy," "One Sweet Day" (Mariah Carey & Boyz II Men) •1996: "Always Be My Baby" •1997: "Honey" •1998: "My All" •1999: "Heartbreaker" (featuring Jay-Z); "Thank God I Found You" (featuring Joe & 98 Degrees) Mariah Carey completists will appreciate that this ESSENTIAL contains four tracks newly chosen by Mariah herself for the occasion: •"Vanishing," Mariah's debut as a producer, from her self-titled debut album of 1990 •"Close My Eyes," a confessional track from the Butterfly album, evoking her new freedom as a single woman in 1997; •"The Roof (Mobb Deep Extended Version)," also from Butterfly, Mariah's first track with the songwriting-production duo Poke & Tone, aka the Trackmasters (Jean Claude Oliver and Samuel Barnes); •"Bliss," from her next album, 1998's Rainbow, one of six tracks on that album that were co-written and co-produced by Mariah with the Flyte Tyme Productions team of Jimmy Jam, Terry Lewis, and Big Jim Wright. In addition, Mariah has included two rare alternate remixes on this ESSENTIAL collection, both on disc one. "Emotions (12-inch Club Mix)," from 1991, the title track of Mariah's second studio album, is a remix of her record-setting fifth consecutive #1 hit single. "Anytime You Need A Friend (C + C Club Remix)," from her third studio album, 1993's Music Box, was remixed by her friends Robert Clivilles and David Cole of fellow Columbia Records group C + C Music Factory, who played such a crucial role as writers and producers on Mariah's early studio albums. Mariah Carey's Cinderella storybook signing to Columbia Records in 1990 is entwined with the magic of that decade. At the very outset, she accomplished what no other pop artist had done in the history of the Billboard Hot 100, sending her first five consecutive singles to the #1 spot. Indeed, eight of her first ten singles hit the #1 spot between 1990 and 1993, and the decade would see Mariah place 15 hits at the top of the Hot 100 through 1999. In 2005, Mariah earned her 17th #1 career single ("Don't Forget About Us"), tying one of the most enduring chart records in Hot 100 history, Elvis Presley's 17 #1's. Three years later, Mariah surpassed Elvis with her 18th #1 Hot 100 hit ("Touch My Body"). Mariah is currently positioned as the only active recording artist in the 54 years of the Hot 100 (which began in 1958) with the potential to surpass the Beatles' all-time high of 20 #1 hits.
