Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak Spark Romance Rumors Again at iHeartRadio Music Awards
Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak are either the most dedicated collaborators in music history or the most coy couple in Hollywood—take your pick. The duo turned heads at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, where .Paak gallantly escorted Carey to the stage as she accepted her Icon Award. This public appearance comes after months of speculation fueled by their cozy Aspen dinners and holiday hangouts, complete with just enough PDA to keep the rumor mill churning.
Carey, the queen of Christmas and high notes, and .Paak, the funk-soul maestro, have been working on new music together, which could explain their frequent proximity. But let’s be real: when two people are spotted holding hands at dinner and helping each other up award show stages, it’s hard not to wonder if there’s more than just a professional partnership brewing.
Insiders, however, insist they’re not an item—yet. The keyword here is “yet,” because if history has taught us anything, it’s that where there’s smoke, there’s usually fire. Or at least a carefully orchestrated PR campaign. Either way, their chemistry is undeniable, and their joint appearances are becoming harder to dismiss as mere coincidence.
What’s fascinating is how this potential romance (or lack thereof) plays into Carey’s larger-than-life persona. She’s a diva who thrives on mystery and allure, and .Paak’s laid-back, cool-guy vibe provides the perfect counterbalance. Together, they’re a walking headline, and they know it. Whether this is a genuine connection or a masterclass in keeping the public guessing, one thing’s for sure: they’re winning at the attention game.
So, are they dating? Maybe. Are they keeping us entertained? Absolutely. And in the end, isn’t that what really matters?
