MARIAH'S not so HAPPY CHRISTMAS

The diva is down in the dumps as her private life implodes

- 

As the reigning Christmas queen it's supposed to be the merriest time of the year for Mariah Carey, but sources say a series of setbacks has the singer in a serious slump.

"She looks depressed, like something is going on behind the scenes," speculated one fan after the singer's lacklustre performance at one of her Merry Christmas One And All! shows in the States.

NURSING A BROKEN HEART?

There's one glaring omission - her backup dancer boyfriend Bryan Tanaka has been noticeably absent from the tour, sparking speculation the pair have split.

Bryan, 40, hasn't appeared on the 54-year-old singer's social media since December 2022, and Bryan hasn't posted about Mariah since March.

"Is it true she broke up with Tanaka?! So sad. He really seemed to light her up in the recent years," commented one fan.
