Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon’s Night Out in NYC

In addition to the plethora of beautiful people at Time magazine’s “100 Most Influential People in the World” gala last night, onlookers got a special treat as Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon made their first public appearance as man and wife.

Having been hitched in the Bahamas last week, Mariah and Nick looked happier than ever as they mingled with industry bigwigs and fellow celebrities during the gala, held at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City.

The “Always Be My Baby” singer looked stunning in a silver, sparkly gown, complete with plenty of left-hand bling, while her man donned a dark suit.

After the Time shindig, the newlyweds headed over to the celebrity-popular Waverly Inn for a late night dinner. But not before Mariah had a chance to change into yet another fabulous dress. She chose a strapless trench coat-inspired garment and she looked fabulous.

When asked how it feels to be married, Nick told press, “It feels amazing. My cheeks hurt from smiling so hard. I’ve been smiling for days.” And Mariah chimed in, “It’s comforting–and something I’ve never felt before. Which is really being in love and happy with someone who really understands me and isn’t trying to do anything but make me happy. It’s wonderful.”
