Since getting married in late March to Nick Cannon, rumors that Mariah Carey's marriage is on the rocks has popped up on blogs for months. However, it couldn't be further from the truth, the pop diva says.

When asked recently, by MTV, to address rumors of a strained relationship, Carey said those types of rumors are confusing.

When hearing "things are rocky and hazy and messed up," Carey says she thinks to herself, "I'm like, 'Why would we have gotten married to do that?' People are going to say what they say, but what would be the purpose? I guess other people do those things for a purpose, but I don't know. I'm ecstatic, so be ecstatic with me! Be happy with me. Can we celebrate?"

Aside from her personal life, the singer is planning a full-blown tour for later this year in support of her latest album, E=MC2, and each stop will be "elaborate," she reveals.

"I'm thinking elaborate," Carey told MTV. "I like elaborate. We only do substantial. That's what my jeweler says. I haven't gotten the looks in mind just yet, but we're going to figure it out soon enough."

Carey says the tour is expected to begin in November, but it may start later, maybe in December. Things aren't concrete just yet.

Until then, though, fans can see her perform at the upcoming Teen Choice Awards, which takes place on August 4th, but is slated to air in September.

Their marriage happened so soon according to whose time-table? Who was following them 24/7 to know when they hooked up until the media brought it to your attention? Why are people too quick to judge others when it isn't their lives? It is NONE of your business just as Usher's life is none of his detractors' business! "Mariah wanted to be married and found..." - Mariah confided this to you? I luv them all & I luv the fact that they found what/who they believe they've been looking for and are happy living their lives! Are YOU (miserable posters)?

WHATEVER!!! i'm not feeling sorry for her! she needs to talk to USHER then she'll know what it is to be rejected because of who you "love"/marry! i think his mariage totally ruined his career! nobody i know really gives a fuck about her or nick cannon. but i remember how emotional everybody got over usher. really if she and her boy would sit down somewhere i think people would totally forget about the whole situation

I dont know about yall but I'd be a sucka for mariah. Even if I signed a prenup, while I'm with her, I'm gonna be milking her for every last drop.
