When Mariah Carey is in love, she holds nothing back! Fresh off a very romantic vacation with her new beau, James Packer, who also happens to be the richest man in Australia, and her kids with ex-husband Nick Cannon, Mariah resumed her Las Vegas residency.

And because she’s happy with her new man, she gushed about him in concert, thanking him for giving her “a new heart” and dedicating “Hero” to him. If that’s not love, what is?

Mariah and James went public last month, with reports saying that they had fallen so badly for one another that they were already making wedding plans. The only hold-up was the fact that her divorce from Nick wasn’t final yet, admittedly.

However, James had had his sight on Mariah long before their European vacation / PDA. A couple of months earlier, he had seen her live in Vegas and became so smitten with her that he pursued her “relentlessly” until she agreed to go on a date with him.

TMZ says that he treats her like a princess, and Mariah loves that about him. The other night, they were reunited after 2 weeks apart and they had a romantic dinner at Andiron Steak and Sea in Vegas. When she got home, he surprised her with a delivery of 1,000 red roses.
