MARIAH CAREY is spending hours with Arsenio Hall on his upcoming talk show – and hubby Nick Cannon doesn’t like it one bit, say sources.
The 44-year-old beauty is helping Arsenio, a friend for more than 20 years, plan the launch of his new late-night show this fall, but Nick is feeling left out, reveal pals.
“Nick genuinely likes Arsenio, but he’s intimidated by his close friendship with Mariah,” said an insider.
“They’ve been locked away planning every aspect of the first week of his show.”
Arsenio,58, had a late-night show many years ago when Mariah was a newcomer, and he gave her career a big boost by featuring her on his program. Now the singer wants to repay him by performing live on his new show and perhaps even joining him in a comedy skit.
