Rumors have been swirling all night about Mariah Carey‘s alleged engagement to billionaire boyfriend James Packer.

The businessman reportedly popped the question to the premium diva, 45, in front of her friends and family at a private dinner at Eleven Madison Park. They have been dating for approximately six months.

Confirmation seemed scarce, however a glowing Mimi offered the most telling of responses when spotted leaving the venue.

See what we mean below…

Congrats to Mariah and James!

The marriage will serve as the singer’s third; she was first wed to Sony executive Tommy Mottolla in the 90s and Nick Cannon – with whom she has two children – from 2008 to 2015.

It’ll also stand as the third marriage for 48-year-old Packer, who also has children from previous unions.

Three times a charm?

      lawd, she worth $500 mill and he worth billions. She finally looks happy.

      While I will not dog NICK out, he was basically BROKE and she endorsed his clothing/tie line, got him PUT on. But he wanted to be in the clubs every weekend flossing with her MONEY. Hes a PIMP. lol

      Congrats to the Beautiful Icon Mariah, she has graced us with 25 years of hits and FADED.

    Y’all better stop being a Ciara and leave these Features alone and pull a Janet or Mariah. MooMoo learned her lesson from dating Nick Jr employees.

    • Nicki Minaj thee ONLY QB January 22, 2016

      Well… At least she didn’t do a D******** and sleep with older guys because she had daddy issues

      Mariah the only one getting ready to marry a billionaire. And Janet is a Billionaire not her husband SMH.

      • OMG Logic!!! January 22, 2016

        Deluded much? Janet isn’t even in the top 5 best selling females. How exactly is she a billionaire aside from her Arabian Night husband?

      • Shady81 January 22, 2016

        Honey it’s not delusions and like I said before her husband’s not a billionaire it’s a family owned company he works for and that’s barely worth 1 billion dollars Janet’s husband doesn’t have Will Packard, Mark Zuckerberg, let alone Bill Gates Billions stupid ass people SMH. And Janet’s not only an entertainer but a well established business women just because her finances aren’t reported to Forbes doesn’t mean she’s not a billionaire her damn self cause last time I checked only thing forbes has on Janet is her contract finance statements from her recording contracts from A&M Records, Virgin Records, and Island Def Jam Records so boom there you go.

  6. RASHAD January 22, 2016

    Mariah you want to be reimbursed for the millions you had to pay Nick Canon in the divorce settlement lol!

    Seriously though good for her. I applaud her for marrying somebody who is on her level financially. After playing Sugga momma to Nick Cannon for all them years & him trying to wipe out her hard earned money during the settlement she needs someone who has his or money if not more than her! Congrats!

  7. AnnaliseKeatingsNewWig January 22, 2016

    Yes GAHT! Finally a man who can PAY for the ring, wedding, mansion, etc.

    • bonBon489 January 22, 2016

  10. LB January 22, 2016

    Glad she is done with the sugar momma lifestyle.

  11. Barb-wire January 22, 2016

    Gratz Mimi, I hope this one lasts for the kids sake.

  12. april bells January 22, 2016

    Gawd.finally she said yes.

  13. Kitteneyez January 22, 2016

    Mariah you are desperate and insecure you are havin an Elizabeth Taylor/Marilyn Monroe moment Mariah what are you doing? Focus on your career! Focus on your kids! Focus on yourself! I love you and will always support you but wtf are you doing? You look giddy like you just lost and would say yes to anybody cause you dunno how to be alone. Sigh. This would not end well at all divorce #3 I smell you

    • LOL January 22, 2016

      You sound mad. Focus on her career? Are you serious right now? She is Mariah Carey, a legend, I think the career part is handled. Focus on your kids? Really? She is always with her children and seems focused as any good parent. Focus on yourself? how about YOU focus on yourself. #asianGirlGiggle

      • bonBon489 January 22, 2016

        THANK YOU FOR THAT. MARIAH SEEMS EXTREMELY WELL BALANCED AND A FULL TIME MOM AND HANDLING ALL HER BUSINESS VENTURES. SHE IS ON TOP OF HER GAME.

        MUSIC DOES APPEAR TO BE LAST ON HER LIST OF THINGS TO DO, BUT SHE ALWAYS APPEARS LIVE EITHER IN VEGAS OR THE XMAS SHOWS OR PRIVATE SHOWS.

  14. Indie January 22, 2016

    Hahahahahahaha!!!!!!! Thats was Hysterical, I love this fish, she is the ULTIMATE DIVA! Only Mariah would flash her engagement ring by just subtly showing her and out of the cr and then shutting the door lol! She’s brilliant! And as much as I had a hard time excepting Shrek he makes her happy, she has been glowing and she looks healthy and in good form, congrats Mimi! x

  15. Jem January 22, 2016

    Get it Mimi! The legends are doin’ it. Janet, Mariah….#billionairemulah

  16. JOHNVIDAL January 22, 2016

    Wow congrats Mariah. she´s onviously happy and just living life with enough experience to know it probably won´t last but that she has to make the most of it. There´s nothing wrong when both adults know how it works at this point. Congrats.

    • Teflon Boy January 23, 2016

      That’s a very sensible answer and when you put it like that one can my help but wish them both well. I’m as much of an Aaliyah fan as I am a Mimi fan so I know tomorrow is never promised. Congrats Mariah!

  17. Royalkev January 22, 2016

    Congrats, Mariah looks really happy! Everyone is quick to mention how paid her fiance is, but I like seeing how into Mariah he is. Like Janet, they’ve seem to have found men that are completely dedicated to them. You need someone that’s going to build you up (sings *I need somebody uplifting* – Dreamlover) and not any ‘ole body hanging around for the ride when things are on the up side. That’s what REALLY matters when you already have your own coins!

    • Shady81 January 22, 2016

      I have to totally disagree with you but that’s my opinion, no man can complete a women unless they complete themselves first.

      • Royalkev January 22, 2016

        No, I’m not condoning the idea of a woman needing a man to make her whole, I was putting the emphasis on women (that don’t need a man to take care of them) choosing men that are dedicated to them instead of measuring someone’s potential by what’s in their pockets. People are always impressed by someone’s wealth and that’s actually not the main thing to look for on a quest for real love.

      • Shady81 January 22, 2016

        Well @Royalkev I understand what your saying but just give a much better example like Tina Turner, or if you want a powerful Black couple for example Courtney B. Vance and Angela Bassett, Valerie Simpson and her husband the late Nick Ashford, legendary actors the late Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee, Will and Jada, or Barack and Michelle Obama. Real True love that stands the test of time, I’m not hating on Janet I adore the person and women she is and has become but that husband of hers is a bit shady and looks shady as f*** and something in his water ain’t clean and it all came to ahead when he fired a women from her job for being gang r**** over in Dubai and this happen back in 2014 around October and him and the company was under investigation by the authorities. And Mariah well let’s just hope this for love and not to p*** Nick off or something more sinister because with Mariah she remains unpredictable so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for her sake. To me I don’t believe in forever with marriages I just believe in what’s going on right now if it’s good then it’s good if the waters aren’t right and to murky then you mightiest well move on to the next one because this day in age people don’t marry for love anymore it’s more about who’s gonna get what and how much it’ll cost in the end for that person I call it the fake it to you make it love or fake it until you can find a damn good divorce lawyer whom won’t report your business to the world if your a celebrity, so you can get a quiet divorce or Annulment then when it’s all done announce to the world your finally free and single and ready to mingle.

  21. Jimmy January 22, 2016

    Mariah is a cross between a p** and a m***** – JUST GROSS!

    • Weaveney January 22, 2016

      Yet you here, proving that sloths can talk. Get yourself to a zoo, you freak.

      • Jimmy January 22, 2016

        She is 1/2 p** 1/2 m***** – old gross junk!

  22. verges January 22, 2016

  23. TheElusiveLamb January 22, 2016

    Congrats Queen. See you next month love.

    • KeKe January 22, 2016

      • Nina Nona January 23, 2016

        Me too! This b**** gave me so much life with her merciless dragging. It’s time for her to come back.

    • What now January 22, 2016

      Well I’ll be. If it isn’t “me”? KIIII.

  24. Shady81 January 22, 2016

    Why do I feel once she gets married he’ll be a Tommy Mottola 2.0, Mariah should’ve waited a few years to get engaged get to know a person, the ink hasn’t even dried yet on her divorce papers and she’s ready to walk down the aisle again, she ran into that same problem with Nick Cannon. She whined up marrying Nick for like 4 to 6 months after meeting him and now look at her SMH she may look happy on the outside but the marriage may not be, but hey this is the same women whom was handing out fudge sicles on TRL in 2001 pushing it on a good humor cart, but whatever floats her boat.

    • Lmfao_Hoe January 22, 2016

      Lol leave her alone but i was dying of laughter when she came out singing Loverboy on TRL thats my song lol.

    • Cough Cough January 22, 2016

      That makes absolutely no sense. Tommy Mottola was a total FATHER FIGURE/control freak over Mariah, 17 years older than her and in her life at a point where she was pretty young and influenced. James and Mariah are a year apart, r*****, and Mariah will never let anyone control her, she gets called a demanding diva for a reason. Your logic makes no sense.

  25. Lake Erie January 22, 2016

    Lol!!!!! @ how she showed that ring off! Lol I love her! Lol. Congratulations Mimi!

  26. King B January 22, 2016

    Congrats!
