NO .... you are wrong.   Not sure what's going on with you this morning, but please take two aspirin and lie down until this mood passes.    No engagement ring is ever "too big".

Re: Mariah Carey & James Packer engaged

James Packer comes from LOTS of money, with his father making most of it, although the grandfather was no slouch, either.   When Kerry Packer (James' father) died in 2005, he was worth about $6.5 billion.   

 

Many, many years ago when one of my friends was a fashion model, she met and went out with Kerry Packer once.    Then the photo shoot was over and she flew back to the U.S.    She said he was a nice guy, but was totally married to his work.   

 

This will be the third marriage for both of them.

Hips and thighs can be too big but there is no such thing as a "too big" diamond!!

Lovely ring.  Never can have a diamond large enough. 

Wish them the best.

Well we shall disagree. She needs help in holding that thing up. I did not even like the setting. Pass me that aspirin...or maybe you will need it while reading this. JK

Re: Mariah Carey & James Packer engaged

Mariah has a phenomenal voice, but I think she has some severe diva tendencies. So glad she found someone who can deal with lavish lifestyle. I don't give it positive odds because I think she can be difficult (not as difficult as Nicki Minaj, but difficult.)  Love Nick Cannon. She should have stayed with him and kept her family together.
