Mariah Carey’s Dating Life Is the Subject of Unverified Rumors With This Hot A-List Musician

Mariah Carey has been living the single life since she announced her split from her longtime boyfriend Brian Tanaka last December. Or is she already dating someone else? There are unverified rumors going around that the “Hero” singer is dating another very famous face from the music industry — and if the tea is true, we are here for it!

Instagram gossip site Deuxmoi, which shares unverified stories about Hollywood, claimed on their April 11 podcast that Carey has been dating Lenny Kravitz since late last year. The timeline seems to track because Carey and Tanaka broke up earlier in the year, but they didn’t reveal the end of their relationship until months later. Deuxmoi’s timeline has the 55-year-old superstar linked with Kravitz in November — no overlap, but right around the time of Carey’s single-for-now announcement.

There seems to be evidence that there is at least a comfortable friendship happening between this dynamic duo after working together years ago on the 2009 movie, Precious. Kravtiz was spotted in the front row of her Christmas concert, and they have enjoyed some cozy dinners at celebrity hotspot Craig’s, which is swarming with paparazzi. So, are they hiding in plain sight? Now, Deuxmoi is reporting that they will make their red-carpet couple degree at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, but that’s where we have to put a pause on the story. The event doesn’t happen until November, which is still seven months away. It seems a little early to be planning a couple debut that far in advance, right?

The cute thing about this story if it does pan out is that both Carey and Kravitz are on the nominees list for the very first time. If they are selected — fans will know on Sunday, April 21, when the honorees are revealed on American Idol — they will be in the same class together. That would be a very romantic moment to share, that is, if they are really dating.

Carey was formerly married to Nick Cannon, and they share 12-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe. Kravitz was married to Lisa Bonet for six years and they share a daughter, Zoë Kravitz, 35. While neither Kravitz nor Carey have confirmed the rumors about their dating status so far, we are here for this A-list power couple if and when they are ready to confirm the news.
