Cannon reminds Carey of her mother

Washington (ANI): Mariah Carey has said that her hubby Nick Cannon is her soul mate - because he reminds her of her mother. The singer stated that he has an upbeat attitude, which resembles to that of her mother.

"When I was a kid there was an ice storm in the suburbs… We went to Manhattan to stay with a friend of my mom's. There was nobody on the road. It was this moment that could've been scary for a kid, but she made it festive," Contactmusic quoted her, as saying.
