Report: Nick Cannon Files for Divorce from Mariah Carey
Published at
Dan MacMedan/WireImage(NEW YORK) — Just one day after it was revealed Mariah Carey will be making a mint with a multi-million dollar stint at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas comes word from TMZ that her estranged hubby, Nick Cannon, reportedly won’t get a piece of that pie: he filed for divorce from the singer late last year.
The gossip site says Cannon filed the papers on Dec. 12 — just days after Carey was late for a taping of her appearance on NBC’s Christmas in Rockefeller Center special. Carey performed live when the show aired the following night, Dec. 3.
TMZ reported at the time that Mariah blamed her tardiness on a marathon call to a divorce lawyer.
Cannon may have beaten her to the punch in court, but, according to TMZ, that means she “has completely detached Nick” from her forthcoming Vegas payday.
Cannon and Carey split last August. They married in 2008.
