Mariah Carey and her husband "make love" to her music.

The international superstar's partner Nick Cannon gave a candid interview on the Howard Stern radio show on Tuesday (December 11) where he shared some intimate details of the couple's private life.

When asked by Stern if the pair "make love" to Carey's famous ballads, Cannon replied: "Absolutely. You know how it goes. Sometimes there's special nights when you turn the music on."

Carey and Cannon - who have twins Monroe and Moroccan together - tied the knot in the Bahamas in 2008. Their nuptials came after a whirlwind six-week romance, and Cannon revealed that the pair waited until their wedding night before becoming intimate.

He explained: "I knew what her values were," before adding: "It was Mariah Carey. If Mariah Carey gave a bad b******, I'm still going in. Either way she's still one of the most beautiful women on the planet."
