Pop icon Mariah Carey and artist Anderson .Paak were recently observed enjoying an evening at the exclusive celebrity restaurant Nobu in Malibu, California. This public outing occurred just weeks after they were seen holding hands during a movie date in Los Angeles.
The pair initially ignited dating rumors in December 2024 while vacationing in Aspen, Colorado. Throughout the holiday season, they were reportedly spotted holding hands on multiple occasions, fueling speculation.
Carey herself alluded to a potential romantic connection, telling Keke Palmer's podcast in September last year that there was "maybe a little love" between them. However, .Paak has since clarified that they are close friends and that his demanding schedule prevents him from committing to a relationship.
Notably, .Paak filed for divorce from his former wife, Jae Lin Chang, in January 2024. Carey's last public relationship was with choreographer Bryan Tanaka, which ended in late 2023.
