Mariah Carey Confirms Romance With Backup Dancer Bryan Tanaka

Mariah Carey has confirmed her relationship with backup dancer Bryan Tanaka less than two months after her breakup with fiance James Packer.

During an impromptu photo shoot in Hawaii, Carey, 46, and Tanaka, 33, were seen kissing and cuddling on the beach, thus confirming rumors that have been swirling around the pair. Other shots showed Carey in a sexy black swimsuit getting a piggyback from her new beau.

Carey and Packer called off their engagement two months ago following an argument they had while vacationing in Greece. She got emotional on her reality show Mariah’s World when it aired clips of her trying on wedding dresses after the wedding had been called off. “All of those moments are bittersweet,” she said. “But you just have to focus on whatever you’re focusing on and keep it moving.”

Moving on Carey has a name – and it’s Bryan Tanaka.
