Mariah Carey is tired of hiding her secret boyfriend, a music exec, so she decided to introduce him to the world.
The lucky man is Mark Sudack, the one who helped her do a massive come-back with her new album ?he Emancipation of Mimi?, released in 2005. The album debuted as number one in the U.S. with the highest first week sales of Carey's career, and remained in the top five of the Billboard 200 album chart for twenty-one weeks.
A friend of Mariah told the National Enquirer that the singer ?as tried to keep her relationship with Mark under the radar. She guarded the romance fiercely but she's tired of hiding him.?
?he considers Mark her lucky charm ? and largely responsible for her best-selling CD in years. Mariah is elated ? and she'll soon be making good on the promise of her hit 'We Belong Together' when she weds her beau!?
The pop diva has been married to a music exec before ? Tommy Motola - for 5 years, from 1993 to 1998, but she considered him no lucky charm at all. On the contrary, she thought his influence almost threatened to destroy her career.
Mariah has recently won an American Music Award for being the best R&B Soul singer. |

LOUNGE ACT
When Carey turned 36 on March 27, she got the VIP treatment at London's Tantra club, complete with a 2-ft., $9,376 chocolate cake and a club staffer who held an electric fan over her. Just don't call it a birthday: "Mariah calls them 'anniversaries,' " a friend told PEOPLE, "because to her every day is a form of celebration." |

GIVING BACK
Carey, who co-founded the Fresh Air Fund's Camp Mariah, got another chance to help kids in July, when she performed with an African children's chorus at London's Live 8. She asked one young singer to say hello onstage, but he clammed up. "When he saw himself on the huge screen, I think it totally freaked him out," she said later. |

ATTENTION GETTER
When fans mobbed Carey's Paris hotel in September, she didn't disappoint, signing autographs in a Pucci minidress and stiletto sandals. "I don't care if knee-length skirts and low heels are in, I don't like them," |
