Oprah Winfrey has smashed through reports Mariah Carey's Bahamas wedding was a last-minute thing by revealing the pop star already had her married name tattooed on her neck when she appeared on Oprah on April 14.

Speaking on her show on Wednesday, Winfrey admitted she regrets not "making more" of the fact Nick Cannon was backstage with Carey when the singer was promoting her new album, "E=MC2."

Carey even introduced Winfrey to the actor/rapper who was to marry her on April 30, but the talk show titan didn't think anything of the magical moment - or of her guest's new tattoo.

She said, "She'd done the tattoo on her back that said `Mrs. Cannon,' so they were already planning on doing it (getting married)."
