Mariah: 'I made Nick wait for sex'

Mariah Carey has revealed that she made Nick Cannon wait before they had sex.

The singer said the couple did not make love from when they met in February until they married in April.

She told The Mirror that she is glad she imposed the restriction, saying: “It's not that we had no intimacy, we just didn't have complete intimacy. It's just me, and my feelings.

"I definitely don't want to push it on anybody else but we both have similar beliefs, and I just thought that it would be so much more special if we waited until after we were married. And it was, and it still is."

Carey performed new single 'I Stay In Love' on last night's X Factor.
