Mariah Carey started 2025 with a bang.
The iconic diva treated her fans to a jaw-dropping Instagram album showcasing her stunning New Year’s Eve look. She wore a daring nude dress that plunged deep and sparkled with rhinestones, leaving everyone speechless. The gown hugged her hourglass figure perfectly, showing off her famous curves. Mariah’s confident poses proved why she’s still the queen of glamour.
The Queen of Christmas does it again
Mariah always shines brightest during the holidays. Every year, she wraps up her Christmas tour with a luxurious getaway to Aspen, Colorado. This year was no different. She brought along her 13-year-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan, who she shares with ex-husband Nick Cannon. The family enjoyed the snowy wonderland together, but this year’s trip had an extra spark.
Romance Rumors heat up
Mariah’s getaway wasn’t just about family time. On New Year’s Eve, she added fuel to the rumors about her budding romance with Anderson .Paak. The two were spotted dining at the swanky Italian restaurant Duemani in Aspen. Cameras caught them holding hands outside the celebrity hotspot. Inside, an eyewitness saw Anderson sweetly kissing Mariah’s hand over dinner.
Their chemistry didn’t go unnoticed. A source spilled exclusive details, revealing that Anderson’s infectious personality has swept Mariah off her feet. “Anderson is joyful and brilliant,” the insider gushed. “Mariah loves being around him. They have so much fun together. Their connection feels effortless.”
No Pressure, just Fun
Friends say Mariah and Anderson aren’t rushing into anything serious. “There’s no pressure,” the source explained. “They’re just enjoying each other’s company. Everything feels natural. If things keep going this way, the sky’s the limit for them.”
The pair is even considering a musical collaboration. “They want to work on music together, but they’re not forcing it,” the insider shared. “They’re letting life happen and seeing where it takes them.”
Spotted again in Aspen
Mariah and Anderson’s connection grew stronger over the months. They were seen dining together at Catch Steak in Aspen the weekend before their New Year’s date. Despite leaving separately that night, their chemistry was undeniable. A source shared, “Mariah and Anderson have a flirty connection. They’ve been hanging out for months.”
However, Anderson’s complicated personal life raised some eyebrows. He’s still legally married to South Korean musician Jae Lin, although he filed for divorce nearly a year ago. Anderson and Jae were married for 12 years and have two children, 13-year-old Soul and six-year-old Shine. Anderson requested joint custody of the kids.
A Hollywood Ladies’ Man?
Anderson’s reputation as a Hollywood ladies’ man has also sparked speculation. While his charm is undeniable, some wonder if he’s ready to settle down. An insider said, “He’s still legally married, and he’s known for being flirty in Hollywood. But Mariah’s having fun and enjoying his company.”
Mariah’s glamorous Start to 2025
Romance aside, Mariah is kicking off 2025 in true diva style. Her Instagram post showcasing her glittering New Year’s look quickly racked up millions of likes. As the “All I Want for Christmas Is You” legend posed for the camera, it was clear she’s ready to own the new year.
Whether it’s her rumored romance with Anderson or her iconic style moments, Mariah Carey knows how to keep the world watching. The diva’s latest chapter is just getting started, and fans can’t wait to see what’s next.
