Mariah Blocks Our View to a Marriage

Newly married songstress cancels Monday date with a.m. chatfest

Here doesn't come the bride.

Mariah Carey has pulled out of a scheduled appearance on The View next week, a show spokesman confirms to E! News. According to the singer's website, she had been set to join the morning chatfest on Monday.

And that's all she wrote. But usually when a chart-topping artist has a new album out, her people hit up every relevant talk show for a little face time, a performance, a plug.

And considering Carey's 11th studio album, E=MC2, is only a couple weeks old—and the mainstream recording industry can use all the good PR it can get, what with the massive decline in album sales and all—isn't it odd that the pop superstar has all of a sudden scrapped a spot on the sofa?

It couldn't have anything to do with her having tied the knot on the QT Wednesday in the Bahamas.

Could it?
