In a sign of unrelenting ageism , the internet was buzzing with questions asking “How old is Mariah Carey?”, as it was confirmed that Mariah Carey is expecting her very first child. She is being stashed into Cougar Town, with husband Nick Cannon pipping her at the youth stakes at 29.
Mom-to-be Mariah Carey is 40, and for the record, was born on 27th of March ,1970. Her velvety vocals had her crooning all the way to the bank, as she is among the best-selling artists worldwide, of all-time. In her 1990s heydays, she was the international superstar ruling the roost. The end of the decade say her at the top of the heap, with record album sales than any other peer.

The singer with a dulcet pitch and formidable range was estranged from Tommy Mottola, Columbia Records executive, and later in 2008, married current hubby Nick Cannon.

The newly confirmed parents are said to be over the moon about the long awaited for bundle of joy. Mariah Carey has been in the news for drastically shedding and gaining weight with her yo-yo diets but she has now put it all behind her and vowed to eat healthy.
