In the latest issue of Elle, Mariah Carey gushes about new husband Nick Cannon. Specifically, the singer praises her man for how perfect a father she predicts he will be.

“I couldn’t imagine anybody that I’ve ever met being a better dad,” Carey told the magazine, adding that she wants to raise her future children in a responsible, anti-Dina Lohan manner.

“You can get caught up in Hollywood-land or celebrity-land, and that’s maybe not the best thing for kids, ’cause they didn’t ask for it… I really feel like it’s very important to be responsible and to think, ‘Well, maybe if I do this it’s not the best thing for my child.'”
