Mariah Carey out for her TRL appearance (July 22).

Meanwhile, recent tabloid reports have alleged that Mimi’s expensive taste has ended up putting her new hubby Nick Cannon in a bt of a financial predicament.

“Nick’s sensitive about being perceived as a kept man, so he’s going out of his way to indulge Mariah with lavish gifts and expensive dinners,” an insider claims.

“And the bottom line is that he just doesn’t have the kind of money she has. It’s starting to stress him out,” the source adds.
