Mariah Carey 'Superstitious' About Pregnancy

By PopEater Staff Posted Aug 25th 2010 04:40PM

Mariah Carey's recent performance in Brazil reignited speculation that the singer is pregnant. The 'Obsessed' singer had noticeably exchanged her signature hip-hugging dresses for oversized clothing that hid her bodacious curves. Although her husband Nick Cannon is playing coy about her growing belly, the couple aren't exactly denying the pregnancy rumors.

Mariah's publicist, Cindi Berger, told PopEater's Naughty But Nice Rob Shuter that Carey has seen all the coverage about her rumored pregnancy and "appreciates everyone's well wishes."

"But she's superstitious," Berger continues, tellingly. "When the time is right for her to say something, I'm sure she will."

While the couple, who wed in 2008, has yet to confirm the news, sources close to the singer tell PopEater the 40-year-old diva is indeed pregnant.

In June, Carey abruptly dropped out of Tyler Perry's new film, setting off the first firestorm of speculation that the singer is expecting. Her rep quickly squashed the reports at the time.

Cannon has been the most vocal about the rumors, hinting that the couple's first child is on its way. "I've said it before and I'll say it time and time again -- when my wife feels like talking about whatever she wants to talk about, you will hear it directly from her," Cannon said on his radio show Tuesday morning.

"There's a certain time limit that you're supposed to wait before you actually can officially say that you are. You've got to take all those things into factor and it gets really heightened when you're one of the most famous people in the world because you don't want to mislead anybody," the 29-year-old comedian added.

The pair have not been shy when it comes to talking about babies. According to PEOPLE, Canon has been vocal about wanting to start a family. "We're going to do it," he said in March 2009.

We anxiously await the final word from Mariah!

it's not random at all they love each-other dearly but with her track record and the age difference of nearly 11 years it's bound to be short lived. the only couple I can think of that was 10+ years apart that stayed together for the long haul was President and Mrs Reagan who were married 52 years.

may Mariah & Nick have a healthy child she's already been a mother figure to her sister Allison's two sons both of whom are adults now.

I never liked the girl, but I wish her the best. Everyone deserves happiness, and since marrying Nick, she is acting like a person and not some trashy woman. Good Luck to you!
