Mariah Carey: Drinking With Her Wedding On Hold

Mariah Carey is living the glamorous life as she cruises through Italy with her filthy-rich fiancé James Packer — but the pop star was looking dour on deck! There could be trouble on the high seas as the superstar keeps struggling with estranged husband Nick Cannon to get married!

The National ENQUIRER has talked to insiders claiming that Nick has started looking at Mariah's upcoming marriage as a $100 MILLION lotto ticket! Since filing for divorce in late 2014, the “America’s Got Talent” host, 35, has shrewdly refused to finalize the split — and now he’s looking for a big payoff!

“Mariah really wants her dream wedding — and wants it this year,” dished an insider close to the troubled diva, 47. “But it isn’t going to happen until Nick signs on the dotted line, and he seems like he’s going to stand his ground until he gets his money!”

The source said it’s no coincidence Nick’s demanding the nice, round figure of $100 million. It’s the exact same amount James is paying ex-wife Erica Baxter to finalize his own divorce! “Nick feels he shouldn’t get less than what Packer’s wife is getting,” spilled the spy.
