Thursday night on Chelsea Lately, Chelsea Handler and her round-table guests, mused over Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon’s recent nuptials. The newlyweds apparently chose to get tattoos rather than exchange
rings to commemorate their marriage. According to Nick (via People Magazine) tattoos are better than rings; they “professed our love and they hurt.” Nick chose to have “M-A-R-I-A-H” tramp-stamped across his back, whereas Mariah had “Nick” inked into one of her buns-of-steel. The round-table weighed in:
Jason Kennedy (E! News Correspondent): This is not henna, folks, this is permanent.
Chelsea: Let me say Tommy Lee and Pam Anderson, their tattoos worked. I mean they stayed together even while they were married to other people.
LaVell Crawford (Comedian): I mean Nick, why he got a big-all-over-his-back Mariah, and she got it right on her butt-cheek, look like a crap stain or something like that…I can’t even read hers, does it say Mrs. Cannon or Mrs. Can? I know why he did it because her album is doing way better than his ever did…
Chelsea: They said they flew down two commercial jets filled with lobsters for the wedding. Can you imagine how pissed you’d be if you were in coach and there’s a lobster up front?
Arden Myrin (Mad TV): They were in the Bahamas, like can’t you get a lobster? Do you have 
to fly them in?…I think they were trying to upstage Jay z and Beoncee.
LaVell: I think those tattoos are temporary. I think he can lick them off in a Cracker Jack box.
PJ (From Her Laptop): Is it the new fad to bring along a trusted tattoo artist and his equipment to a proposal rather than a diamond ring ? I’d take a ring any day, even if I had buns-of-steel.
Have a nice weekend,
PJ
when they break up, like in 3 seconds, im pretty sure mariahs jus gonna get a butterfly tattooed over hers. nick on the otherhand……………………………………………………what a dumbass.he cant do much wit dat big shit.he betta get a big ass eagle or sumtin
My wife will be pleased, thanks for the info
I mean because she agrees. Instead of the normal expensive wedding bands we have matching tattoo bands. Much cooler, meaningful and we are assured will last forever. There’s no worries of losing the ring if say when doing the dishes.
I would like to see those. I like the tatoo ring idea; there is something very personal about it and you still have the symbol of eternity that the ring implies.
