Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak are fueling dating speculation once again after making a joint appearance at the 2025 iHeartRadio Music Awards. The Grammy-winning duo arrived together on Monday night, where Anderson was by Mariah’s side as she accepted the prestigious Icon Award.
A Public Display of Support
The R&B legend and Silk Sonic musician were seen together throughout the night, with .Paak even assisting Carey as she walked onto the stage. Their close interaction only adds to the growing curiosity about their relationship status.
While the two have been collaborating on new music, their connection has sparked rumors for months—especially after they were spotted getting cozy during dinner outings in Aspen late last year.
Are They More Than Friends?
Mariah and Anderson first made headlines during the holiday season when they were seen together multiple times. Despite some public displays of affection back in December, sources previously claimed they were just friends.
