A girl's gotta have her priorities, right?

In her first interview since tying the knot with Nick Cannon, Mariah Carey appears on Tuesday's Ellen DeGeneres Show to chat up her recent nuptials—and to reveal that when it comes to the biggest day of your life, it's definitely more important to be the lovely one as opposed to being surrounded by a bunch of silly loved ones.

"Mainly it was people there to do my hair and help me with the dress," Mimi tells Ellen about who attended the quickie marriage last month. "And then three of my friends, and he had three people with him, so it wasn't a lot of people."

Meanwhile, Ellen called in this morning to Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM morning show to dish on the diva's exclusive, albeit tardy, appearance...

Call it the emancipation of the Cannons.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon stepped out publicly for the first time as husband and wife Thursday night in New York, making an appearance at the party for Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People in the World.

The newlyweds arrived at the bash, held at Lincoln Center, around 9:30 p.m. and eschewed the red carpet press, instead making their way inside to allow Mimi adequate prep time for her 10:30 p.m. performance.

Cannon, 27, and Carey, 38, showed off their blingtastic wedding rings, which the Grammy winner matched with her extremely formfitting, short 'n' shimmery dress.

The duo stuck around long enough to pose alongside Oprah BFF Gayle King, music producer Antonio "L.A." Reid and Time Warner CEO Richard Parsons, before continuing on to a postparty pit stop at eatery du jour the Waverly Inn.

Next week will bring yet another first for Carey, namely her first televised appearance as a married woman. Well, a twice-married woman.

She's set to tape an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show Monday. The episode will air on Tuesday.

Nick Cannon took his ring out for a walk today in New York City. From the looks of it, he might need a little help toting the twinkly thing around.

His bride Mariah Carey is said to be performing tonight at the Time 100 event, and we'll bring you all the details as they come in.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon's nuptials might have been a little more planned out than previously believed—at least according to Oprah.

How could the talk-show host tell? Seems like a "Mrs. Cannon" tattoo might have tipped Winfrey off. Mariah reportedly got inked before her April 30 sunset ceremony in the Bahamas.

Only, Oprah says didn't learn about the tat until after Mimi's recent appearance on her show, so she didn't grill Mariah appropriately when she visited a week before the wedding.

"Little did I know I should have paid more attention to the situation," says Winfrey on today's show about being introduced to Mariah's then boyfriend, now husband, Cannon, in the greenroom.

Do you love Mariah Carey? We sure hope so, because today you’re going to be drowning in her.

People magazine is running photos of her wedding to Nick Cannon. She’s reportedly going to be on Oprah today and is scheduled to perform later tonight at Time magazine’s Time 100 party.

Chances are good Mimi’s nuptials (not to mention her prenuptial) will dominate every morning talk show and gossip blog today. Likely your morning DJs are playing Mariah rock-block tributes. Your coworkers may have even subconsciously decided to don pink today in Mariah's honor.

Oh, and if you see a rainbow today, that’s probably her doing, too.

Mariah Carey may seem like she’s on her own sparkly pink planet where unicorns prance freely and rivers flow with rainbow-colored sugar water, but girlfriend’s got some survival instincts tucked in that brain of hers.

Somewhere between her right frontal cortex and wherever it is she stores the names of Sanrio characters, Mariah has squirreled away the term prenup, and, despite speculation, she reportedly has put it to use.

Mariah apparently told a friend that anyone who thinks she and Nick Cannon didn’t have a prenup “is smoking something!"

Sorry, Nick. Better love up that Barbie Dream House while you’re still living in it.

Vibe Magazine

Yes, Mariah Carey looks sexy on the cover of Vibe. But the mag may as well be promoting her debut album from 1990.

The June issue's blow-by-blow account of all the preparations leading up to the "Touch My Body" songbird's 38th birthday off the coast of Antigua would have been at least mildly interesting to us a few weeks ago—that is, before her impromptu wedding to Nick Cannon (who is mentioned in the article as a "recent acquaintance").

But now, reading about how "fuchsia feather boas drip from arms of every chair" seems so passé.

Still, we appreciate the photos, Vibe.  Really, we do.

They'll give us something to stare at till somebody else comes along with the info we really care about.
