Mariah Carey - Carey Engaged
MARIAH CAREY has sparked rumours she is engaged to boyfriend NICK CANNON after sporting a ring on her wedding finger at the TriBeCa Film Festival.
The singer has been dating Cannon since he teamed up with her in a new video.
Both stars are at the film festival in New York to promote their movies; Cannon's basketball film Ball Don't Lie and Carey's Tennessee.
The couple made every attempt not to be spotted together at the festival. But Carey was happy to pose for photographs with a diamond ring on her wedding finger, adding to speculation she is to marry for the second time.
Carey married Columbia Records executive Tommy Mottola in 1993 - but divorced five years later (98). Cannon called off his engagement to model Selita Ebanks last year (07).

Bo Diddley, Rock And Roll Pioneer, Dead At 79
Rock-and-roll pioneer Bo Diddley died early Monday morning (June 2), of heart failure, at his home in Archer, Florida. He was 79 years old.
Diddley's given name was Ellas McDaniel. He was born in Mississippi but moved as a child to Chicago, where he first learned to play the violin (an instrument to which he returned on "The Clock Strikes Twelve," the B-side of 1959's "Say Man," one of his biggest hits). It was as a guitarist, though, that he began working on the streets of the South Side, and later made his most important contribution to rock music with the pummeling "Bo Diddley beat." This instantly recognizable rhythm figure, drenched in tremolo, was featured on the 1955 single "Bo Diddley," his first release on Chicago's Checker Records. (Checker was a subsidiary of Chess, which helped launch the rock-and-roll era that same year with Chuck Berry's epochal "Maybelline.")
Although he never really stopped working, Bo's biggest chart period was from the mid-1950s into the early '60s, with such memorable hits as "You Can't Judge a Book By the Cover," "Road Runner" and "Who Do You Love?" His influence, however, reverberated further. His 1957 "Mona" and 1959 "Crackin' Up" were covered by the Rolling Stones; and "I'm a Man," the flip side of "Bo Diddley," was resurrected (and kicked into overdrive) by the Yardbirds. And Bo's beat was the clear inspiration for the Buddy Holly hit "Not Fade Away" (which the Stones also covered), the 1958 Johnny Otis smash "Willie and the Hand Jive" (itself covered by Eric Clapton) and the Strangeloves' 1965 "I Want Candy" (which has been covered by everyone from Bow Wow Wow to Good Charlotte).
Since it's not possible to copyright a beat, Bo Diddley never received any royalties from the hits other musicians created around his trademark rhythm — a situation he always found annoying. There were other, less-remunerative compensations, though: In 1987, Bo was among the second round of legendary performers inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Eric Clapton invited to play in North Korea
Eric Clapton has been invited to perform in the secretive state of North Korea, it emerged yesterday.
Rock and pop have been banned in the world's most isolated state because of fears over western influences.
But the legendary English singer and guitarist has been asked to perform in the capital Pyongyang next year, according to the Financial Times.
Diplomats believe the overture shows that the communist state wants to build cultural bridges with the West, even though discussions over its nuclear programmes have stalled.
Clapton, whose hits include 'Cocaine', 'Layla', and 'Tears in Heaven', has agreed in principle to the idea, according to the newspaper.
The request comes as the New York Philharmonic performs in Pyongyang following a request from the country's officials.
The Philharmonic is the first major US cultural group to perform in North Korea, which US President George Bush classed as part of the "axis of evil".
The North Korean State Symphony Orchestra plans to perform in London this summer as part of the orchestra's biggest ever tour, and Clapton has been invited to the country in return.
A North Korean official told the Financial Times: "We want our music to be understood by the western world and we want our people to understand western music."
62-year-old Clapton, nicknamed Slowhand, has been ranked fourth in Rolling Stone Magazine's list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.
He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame an unprecedented three times as a band member in The Yardbirds and Cream and as a soloist.

The self-proclaimed house-with-guitars unit known as formed in 1995 about the French dyad of Jean-Philippe Freu and Patrice "Patou" Carrié, from the ashes of iI indie bands. Recording for the Spanish pronounce Elefant, the pair released an eponymic debut presently after coming together (recorded with aid from programmer Johnny Palumbo), then assembled a seven-piece stripe to circuit the country. Soon, the French major label PIAS signed the duet and released the EP Le Mobilier in 1998. A reinforcement gig for Underworld in Paris cemented the group's rather tenuous certification in the dance world, and released their album debut, Installation Sonore, on V2 in mid-1999. Medicine Kills Me followed in 2002, but its deficiency of success caused the group to lose spheric distribution. 2005's Schizophonia followed in a modified release, only the set presently all over the teetotal import when Apple decided to usance the album's vocal "Cell" for an iPod advertizing. V2 re-engaged them on a world-wide base, and released an eponymic collection -- spanning 1997 through 2005 -- to help newcomers catch up.
