MARIAH Carey says the 10-year age gap between herself and husband Nick Cannon caused her to think twice about tying the knot. Carey and Cannon wed in a secret ceremony on the Bahamas earlier this year.And while the pair only dated for six weeks before walking down the aisle, the Touch My Body hitmaker insists their love will last —— and branded her five-year marriage to music mogul Tommy Mottola a “disaster”.When asked if she had second thoughts before her nuptials with Cannon, Carey said, “You know what, I did. But he doesn’t act like it [younger] —— he’s really very intelligent. He’s a very business-minded person, but he’s also a lot of fun so you don’t really think about those things. It is what it is.“I’ve been with someone older and that could be a disaster or maybe you have to throw that side away and don’t think about it —— think about who’s right for you”. —— Celebspy
