Mariah Carey wore a bra made of candy to entice Nick Cannon home for Valentine's Day.

The 'Hero' singer had been complaining about having to spent the romantic day yesterday (14.02.14) apart from her husband - who said he was busy filming 'America's Got Talent' - and posted a series of seductive pictures designed to bring him home.

Next to a photo in her candy bra Mariah wrote: "Waiting for my Valentine..."

Next to another shot of her wearing the bra in a bath, surrounded by balloons, she said: "Champagne, bubbles + candy and no Valentine yet..."

However, shortly afterward, Nick, 33, made a surprise appearance back at home, and they posted another photo of him scooping her up in his arms and presenting her with a box.

Mariah, 43, captioned it: "My funny Valentine has arrived! #YoureMineEternal I love you @NickCannon (sic)"

Nick then posted a picture of Mariah wearing the diamond studded necklace he and bought her, which was shaped in a heart with 'You're Mine' written inside it.

He then tweeted: "Had to give my beautiful wife a little Valentines Day Surprise! #YoureMine #Diamonds #CandyBra (sic)."
