Over a year after igniting romance speculation, Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak once again stepped out together for a PDA-filled outing.
In photos obtained by Page Six, the pair was spotted holding hands while arriving at Westfield Century City in Los Angeles for a screening of “The Devil Wears Prada 2” Thursday evening.
The “Fantasy” songstress, 57, donned a chic LBD for the date night paired with black platform heels and a matching blazer. She swept her locks to the side and accessorized with a black handbag, lariat-style belt and a glittering necklace.
Anderson, 40, wore a black suit adorned with sparkling pinstripes, amping up the look with an open collar, a pair of round sunglasses and a necklace.
Reps for the rapper and the Grammy winning singer did not immediately return Page Six’s requests for comment on Friday.
The sighting comes a year and a half after the pair first got the the rumor mill spinning when they enjoyed a dinner at upscale Catch Steak in Aspen, Colorado, in December 2024.
Though the duo seemed to have arrived together, eyewitnesses told TMZ at the time they left the eatery separately following the cozy dinner.
An insider told the outlet at the time that they weren’t romantically involved but were working on new music together in Carey’s Aspen-based studio.
The following September, the “Fantasy” hitmaker played coy about romantic rumors with .Paak, telling Gayle King that the Silk Sonic member “just likes to hold my hand.”
“He just grabs my hand — I don’t know what he’s doing,” she continued, per Complex.
Carey shares two children, twins Moroccan and Monroe, with ex-husband Nick Cannon. She was married to the “Wild ‘N Out” personality from 2008 till their separation in 2014. They finalized their divorce in 2016.
Previously, the “We Belong Together” singer was also married to music executive Tommy Mottola from 1993 to 1998, and has had a string of high profile romances.
Carey has been linked to New York Yankees alum Derek Jeter, rapper Eminem, Mexican singer Luis Miguel, Australian billionaire James Packer, backup dancer Bryan Tanaka and singer-songwriter Eric Benet.
.Paak, meanwhile, was said to have also sparked rumors with Jeannie Mai over the last several months, according to TMZ.
He was previously married to Jae Lin, with whom he shares two children. The former couple parted ways in 2024.
