Mariah Carey and Anderson .Paak turned heads on Sunday night (Dec. 22) as they were spotted entering Catch Steak in Aspen together. The rumors of a potential romance were quickly spread as the pair held hands and smiled warmly. Anderson held Mariah’s door open and held her close with an arm around her waist, leading to speculation among fans and onlookers.

Insiders have shut down any dating rumors, however. According to sources, the duo is not romantically involved but rather collaborating on new music.

A Powerhouse Collaboration in the Making?

Fans may have anticipated a love story, but the news of a musical partnership has generated its own excitement.
