London, June 12 : Rapper Nick Cannon wooed his wife singer Mariah Carey with a prayer - over a plate of fries.

Cannon and Carey met on a lunch date at the Beverly Hills Hotel to discuss his appearance in her 2008 video Bye Bye.

The rapper won the heart of the singer with his ''spirituality'' on the date when he said grace over his food.

Following his prayer, Carey bonded by showing him her electronic pocketbook Bible.

"Not everyone shares spirituality. When you have that in common, it''s unique," the Sun quoted Cannon as telling US Magazine Giant.

The couple tied the knot in May 2008. (ANI)
