The music icon recalled a brief but flirty encounter with the late rapper, and laments how they didn’t have a chance to become a power couple.
Mariah Carey is reflecting on a missed moment that fans of both R&B and Hip Hop never saw coming — a potential romance with Tupac. During a recent interview on Power 106 Los Angeles’ “Brown Bag Mornings,” the Grammy Award-winning singer was asked about a brief but memorable run-in with the late rap icon that gave her “more than butterflies.” The moment took place at the American Music Awards, years before Pac’s untimely death. But I wanted to keep going back and forth because that happened.” Carey, previously recounted seeing Pac pull up in a Rolls-Royce in her 2020 memoir “The Meaning of Mariah Carey.”
When one of the hosts mentioned that she and Pac would have been “the power couple of all power couples,” Carey didn’t hold back her feelings. “I wish,” she said.
