AceShowbiz - Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak become the talk of the town after being spotted together on a delightful outing. On Sunday night, December 22, the "All I Want For Christmas Is You" singer and the "Make It Better" rapper were seen holding hands in Aspen.
Anderson showed his chivalrous gesture as they entered Catch Steak, a popular celebrity spot in Aspen, Colorado. Photos obtained by TMZ captured the duo laughing with Anderson's arm adorning Mariah's waist as he opened the door for her.
The pair's hand-holding and intimate gestures sparked immediate romance rumors. However, reports swiftly shot down the speculation, clarifying that Carey and .Paak are not dating but are instead collaborating on new music.
According to an insider report from TMZ, the two artists have been working in a studio in Aspen and decided to take a break to enjoy dinner together.
Both stars are currently single, adding fuel to the speculation fire. Carey, 55, ended her relationship with choreographer Bryan Tanaka at the end of 2023. Meanwhile, 38-year-old Anderson .Paak filed for divorce from his wife, Jae Lin Chang, in January and was seen with Dutch singer Sterre Marith Tapilatu after the announcement.
While the internet buzzed with romance theories, sources were quick to point out that Carey and Paak left the restaurant separately. The presence of .Paak seen helping Carey open the door and keeping her close only heightened the chivalry vibes.
Fans are left wondering about the nature of the project the two singers are working on. Anderson .Paak had previously posted a video of himself and Carey at the Electric Lady recording studio in New York City, hinting at a significant collaboration ahead.
Carey's illustrious dating history also included high-profile relationships with Tommy Mottola, Derek Jeter, Luis Miguel, Nick Cannon, and James Packer.
So, are Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak simply collaborating, or is there romance brewing? For now, it seems their relationship stays strictly professional, keeping fans guessing what their musical partnership will bring to the table.
