Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon waited until their wedding to take their relationship to the next level, the superstar singer revealed to the Daily Mirror on Friday.

“It’s not that we had no intimacy, we just didn’t have complete intimacy,” she told the U.K. newspaper. “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.”

They didn’t have to wait long — the couple was married in the Bahamas in April after a whirlwind two-month romance.

“He’s incredibly romantic,” Mariah said, showing off a pair of heart-shaped diamond earrings that her husband purchased to celebrate their six-month anniversary. “He bought me these, and the biggest bunch of flowers you’ve ever seen.”

There was a time that the pop star, who was previously married to record company exec Tommy Motolla, thought she wouldn’t walk down the aisle again.

“I was hesitant for a long time to get into a relationship and lose control of my heart and myself as a human being. I was very protective of myself. But this was something different,” she said.

The lovebirds have even gotten tattoos of each other’s names, and Mariah called her new husband “The One.”

“We really do feel we are soulmates,” she said. “We actually first met each other in 2005, and we definitely had chemistry then, but we were both with other people and it wasn’t the right time… we met again on my video shoot and it all just clicked.”

Mariah Carey stops by Rachel Ray’s afternoon show to chat about her whirlwind romance with hubby Nick Cannon, her rules to live by, and her hidden talent and back up career! Who knew Mariah went to beauty school? Plus Mariah shares her Halloween plans.

On How Nick and Mariah Became a Couple:

RR: Was it really hard for Nick getting up the courage to ask you out?

MC: He was doing things like always on the who was your celebrity crush and always saying me, and he feels like he has spoke us into existence. He already put in the work on that end, and people would always tell me, and I’d be like ‘Do I believe that? I don’t know if believe that he really said that?’ And then I found out that he said it, and backstage at an award show I said ‘Thanks for all the nice things you have been saying about me!’ and he said he meant every word of it. That was our first introduction, and when we were doing the video it just seemed like we knew each other forever.

On Mariah’s Rules to Avoiding Embarrassing Paparazzi Photos:

RR: Just a simple thing like getting out of a car is a big deal for someone like you. How do you get out of a car successfully?

MC: It’s been really difficult. It’s been one of those things that I needed to learn how to do, but I was always aware of it thank god.

RR: Can you imagine having to be aware of how you get out of a car. It is like the simplest thing.

MC: They got me one time, but thank god I had underwear on! You know it was like I was very thankful for that. But I think what you have to do is you lead with the leg, and then kind of place the hand down, and then you are up. If someone is standing in front of you then you proceed to walk.

On Mariah’s Halloween Costume Choices:

RR: So what are our Halloween costume choices?

MC: Well over the years I have been a lot of different costumes. I’ve been a mermaid, they’re all the sexy version. I go that route. Shocking. The mermaid, the nurse, the showgirl, I’ve done all those things. This year Nick and I are going to do the whole thing together…Here are the options: one is a sexy firefighter. Do we like that for me? He can be a regular firefighter guy… then we have an Egyptian…the third one takes a little imagination here. I would be chocolate chip cookies. The way that is, is it’s just like a two piece little number and its made out of the chocolate chip cookie fabric. But then you have actual cookies sewn on.

RR: In interesting places? And is he a glass of milk then?

MC: He made this up and he was only kidding, but I liked it. He would be a milk carton with a missing sign over his head.

On Mariah’s Back Up Career:

RR: Believe it or not, Mariah Carey would be a hair dresser and make-up artist.

MC: I went to beauty school, but I dropped out.
