Mariah Carey had wedding delay guilt

-

Mariah Carey worried about "disappoint­ing" James Packer when she postponed their wedding. The 'Hero' hitmaker and her manager Stella were concerned that juggling plans for the nuptials - which were ultimately cancelled as the couple split in October - with her European tour were too stressful, so felt it for the best to delay the ceremony until Mariah's profession­al commitment­s were fulfilled. Stella asked: "I feel like you'll be putting your profession­al life before your personal life and it makes me feel bad but dare I say, do you postpone the wedding?" Mariah admitted: "It is slightly overwhelmi­ng because we are pretty much putting together this entire tour in two weeks. You know...there's a lot to think about." Later in the opening episode of the 46-year-old star's new reality show, 'Mariah's World', Mariah said: "I just...I don't...I don't know because he keeps asking what we're doing with the dates and when he asks...I don't want to disappoint him and I feel really bad. "And so now I'm sitting here going, 'How do I even do this?' " Stella reassured her client that the Australian billionair­e loves her "so much" and is always "supportive" of her decisions, prompting Mariah to say: "OK, maybe we do the tour and then figure it out afterwards and do it right. You know it's not an easy call to make. "This is a hard decision to make, I'm not sitting around like, 'Oh just blow off the wedding.' I'm sitting here going, 'How am I supposed to fulfill my profession­al obligation­s and not disappoint James?'" Mariah then called James to break the news, and later admitted: "I feel bad because I know I've disappoint­ed James by postponing the wedding. But what I need to focus on right now is this tour." But it wasn't just because of the tour that Stella wanted the 'Fantasy' hitmaker to delay the wedding, as she also had concerns about the pre-nuptial agreement the businessma­n had had drawn up. She admitted: "I'm actually relieved that Mariah wants to postpone her wedding because I've been dealing with this pre-nup and it's definitely not the most romantic thing I've read I'll tell you that. "So I feel like we should meet our profession­al obligation­s first before jumping into any personal commitment­s at this moment." After the couple split, it was revealed the document included clauses that James would not pay for clothes for Mariah and her ex-husband Nick Cannon's fiveyear-old twins Moroccan and Monroe, any gift worth over $250,000 had to be accompanie­d by a note stating it was a present or the giver retained ownership, and the investor had to approve the 'One Sweet Day' singer's requests to use a private jet for her own use.

Little Mix are "in talks" for a documentar­y about their lives. The 'Shout Out to My Ex' hitmakers - comprised of Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Jade Thirlwall, and Leigh-Anne Pinnock - are set to tell all in the new television show, which aims to detail their "personalit­ies" and give fans an insight into their lives outside of the music industry. Jesy, 25, told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "We are in talks at the moment. We really want to do a documentar­y as we feel people do not know much about us. "They know our songs and have seen us perform but they don't know our personalit­ies, so we would love to do a documentar­y. "We want to get someone to follow us around on this whole tour for a whole year." But Leigh-Anne, also 25, is concerned they won't enjoy having cameras following them everywhere they go, but admits it "will be good" for fans to get a first hand look at the "drama" in their lives. She told the publicatio­n: "Maybe we are saying this now but when it comes to it and the camera is being rammed in our faces we will be like, 'Leave us alone'. "And the drama. There is always drama in our lives. "Honestly we actually don't ever get it on camera, do we? So that will be good for people to see that." The documentar­y is expected to be filmed in fly-on-the-wall style, meaning the cameras will be present in the room whilst the girls talk as they normally would. Documentar­y bosses are hoping this will help lift the lid on Jesy's recent claimed there was "no going back" for the pair. An insider said previously: "It's over as far as Jesy's concerned and there's no going back. The wedding is off and her engagement ring won't be going back on. Jesy's so busy with her career and she's throwing herself into work."
