Latina.com was the first to report the marriage. New York Post also reported the pair wed and E! Online quoted a relative of Cannon's as saying that he called his family and confirmed the news.

The pair met when Cannon directed a video for Carey's recent single "Bye, Bye," and word that the two were seeing each other first surfaced in the last few weeks.

Carey wore a humongous, gleaming ring on her left hand at the Tribeca Film Festival premiere of her movie, "Tennessee" last Saturday.

Carey, 38, recently released the No. 1 single "Touch My Body" off her album "E=MC2," which also debuted on record charts as the best-selling album in mid-April. She has enjoyed tremendous success as a recording artist starting in 1990 with her self-titled debut album.

Canno, 27, has acted on television and in films such as 2002's "Drumline" and "Shall We Dance?" and he made his singing debut with a self-titled album in 2003 and followed up in 2006 with "Stages."

If the pair did indeed wed, it would be a whirlwind romance.

This would be Cannon's first marriage but Carey's second. She famously wed top music executive Tommy Mottola in an extravagant wedding in 1993. They had a bitter divorce in 1998.
