Is the newly single Mariah Carey looking to dive back
into marriage? Sources tell the New York Post that the
songbird, who received a quickie Dominican Republic
divorce from Sony exec Tommy Mottola a mere two
weeks ago, is engaged to New York Yankee stud
Derek Jeter. "They are planning to get married--at least
that's the word from her friends in New York," one
"insider" tells the paper. Jeter, however, has a different
take on the affair: "I am not engaged," the ballplayer
tells the Post. "I am not getting engaged. I am not
getting married." Okaaay, over to you Mariah. "There is
no engagement, there is no ring," the singer says. "But
this seems to be turning into a three-ring circus." And it
only looks to get worse. According to the Post, an
upcoming, unauthorized biography of the twenty-eight-
year-old Carey, penned by her estranged sister, Allison
Scott, a former drug addict, will reveal more details
about the her relationship with the twenty-three-year-old
Jeter. Among the claims: the diva and the shortstop
met way back in 1996, and allegedly started spending
time together soon after even though Carey was still
married to Mottola. Up until last month, Jeter denied he
even knew Mariah, who has said repeatedly that she's
not looking for a serious romance right now.
