Mariah Carey Connection

Mariah Carey has dropped her biggest hint yet that she is pregnant with her first child.

The 40-year-old singer, who looked extra curvaceous during her concert in Brazil last weekend, says she will make an announcement ‘when the time is right’.

‘I appreciate everyone’s well wishes but I am very superstitious,’ she said in a statement released by her publicist Cindi Berger.

‘When the time is right, everyone will know – even Cindi Berger.’

Rumours about a possible Mariah Carey pregnancy began swirling earlier this summer and reignited last week when the pop diva stepped out wearing a $140 maternity dress.

The singer, who has been married to husband Nick Cannon for two years, poured her curves into a spaghetti strap halter neck frock from maternity clothing store Pea In The Pod when she visited a steak house in Brazil.

And last weekend, during her performance at a country music concert in Barretos, Sao Paulo, Carey was photographed ballooning on stage in a low-cut gown.

Cannon, 29, is also keeping mum about the pregnancy reports and addressed the subject during his radio show on Monday.

‘I’ve said it before and I’ll say it time and time again,’ he said.

‘When my wife feels like talking about whatever she wants to talk about, you will hear it directly from her.’

Carey and Cannon, however, have made no secret of the fact they want to start a family together.

In October Carey told a US magazine: ‘Definitely, we want a family. It’s at the forefront of our minds.’
