Mariah Carey Will Debut #DemBabies On 20/20

Since it took nearly six months to find make-up chairs tiny enough and because they operate on their own schedule not yours… YOU’RE NOT THE BOSS OF THEM… the Cannon Twins, Moroccan and Monroe, will make their television debut on 20/20 October 21. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon have been hiding their twins, and doing a great job, since we only know what baby Monroe’s little hand looks like. And that picture is now massively out-dated. And we only know what the twins’ bi-coastal nurseries look like. But after months of deliberation and Carey working out to regain her figure, the couple will introduce their twins this week.

Barbara Walters had a sit down interview with the family and talked about the twins, born April 30. Carey confirmed the news on her blog: ‘Mariah and Nick recently sat down with Barbara Walters in their New York apartment to discuss Mariah’s pregnancy, their marriage, their beautiful baby twins Monroe and Moroccan and much more. Tune in to ABC Friday, October 21st at 10:00pm to watch the exclusive interview including #DemBabies for the first time ever!’

Nick Cannon Production Manager At Twins’ Birth

Because Mariah Carey is a ridiculous human being who’d risk putting her babies in danger so she could have doctors adjust the room’s lighting rather than tend to her directly, Nick Cannon acted as the day’s ‘production manager’ at the birth of their twins. Cannon filmed the labour (presumably cutting around the part where Carey pooped herself repeatedly) and controlled the music as doctors adjusted the lighting. Also, Cannon says Carey wanted her 1995 song Fantasy to be played and the babies born to a round of applause. Cannon admitted this on The Talk, saying, ‘It was definitely over the top. I was the production manager of the whole production. I was the DJ. I had the camera on one hand. The lighting had to be perfect. My wife was like, ‘if you’ve got a camera, you make sure the lighting is right.’ The doctors were adjusting the lights. But it was amazing because she wanted a certain song to be playing when the babies came out. She wanted Fantasy, from her live performance from Madison Square Gardens so they could come out to a round of applause. It was a production, holding the camera, hitting record.’ Right after the birth, on their anniversary, the couple renewed their vows. ‘That’s how much of a diva my wife is: not only did she give birth to twins, hours later she was in a gown, in hair and make up.’ And the couple is already projecting personalities on their four-month-olds. ‘My daughter is a diva. My son is laid back. When he wakes up, he wakes up smiling. He’ll wait for a minute and if he’s hungry, he’ll let you know. My daughter is just instant, she goes in and will not stop crying til you give her what she wants. It’s like sleep and then screaming. My daughter is just on one all the time.’ Interview and song below.

Mariah Carey Twitter Picture Of Post-Baby Body

Mariah Carey shared this photo on Twitter to prove that pushing out twin watermelons/ unicorns is the way to better biceps. That’s why she’s giving you tension in the arms. I’m also eyeballing her stomach in that control-top one-piece. I call shenanigans on that bathing suit… it looks nicely/ cleverly tailored to suck everything in. Jessica Alba needs to get on that, suck everything in with the power of shenanigans. Rather than starving away the baby weight.

Mariah Carey’s Baby Daughter Is Not Amused

Mariah Carey shared a photo of her seven-and-a-half-week-old daughter this weekend; hidden behind the girl’s own hand and a blanket. For weeks now, Carey has been saying that her daughter is a diva-in-the-making and that Monroe Cannon would about face in the womb on the advent of an ultrasound, as if to say ‘No pictures.’ Carey wasn’t joking. Rather than get on with it and share pictures of her twins on the cover of a magazine, so we can laugh at Nick Cannon being cropped/ left out of the picture, Carey tweeted this with the message, ‘This is baby Monroe saying ‘no pictures dahhhhling’ at 7+1/2 weeks..oh dear.’ I gather Carey and her husband are negotiating a magazine deal. More to come…

Mariah Carey Drinking Investigation Dropped

Mariah Carey’s breasts were full of nothing but the tears of orphan children and were less than 50% beer at the time her twins were beginning to breastfeed. It had been reported that some busybody overheard a nurse’s advice about how drinking a certain alcoholic beverage could ease breastfeeding. Which Carey did at that nurse’s behest. Worrying that naming her babies Moroccan and Monroe would be the least of the child abuse, that eavesdropper reported the matter to the Department of Children and Family Services. Only on May 26 did the investigation continue to the family home, where I guess officials made sure only liquid gold was in the baby bottles and nothing with alcohol. I guess the gold was 24 carat as the investigation’s already over. TMZ.com reports that, after a formal interview about drunk babies, it was found the kids were safe and healthy. As though anyone expected less, based on a tip from an anonymous source who probably worked at the hospital and was probably drinking on the job as well.

Mariah Carey Reveals Baby Names On Twitter

Mariah Carey revealed the names of her babies on Twitter, after telling followers yesterday morning that she would use her profile to announce the news. Carey and Cannon didn’t release the names of their children immediately. Now I’m wondering why not. It would have been better than this puerile crap… announcing the baby names on Twitter like some reject from 16 & Pregnant. I don’t know why but I find this really annoying. Carey teased fans with a tweet reading, ‘So we r bout 2 reveal the actual names and b4 we tell em 2 our friends etc. I had 2 C if any of the #lambily wanted 2 guess!!!’ She’s telling people on Twitter before actual friends. Sure, okay. She then told a fan who’d guessed, ‘both begin w/M’s!’ So the names weren’t going to be ‘Rainbow Cookie Sandwich Cannon’ and ‘Cherry Berry Rick Pip Cannon.’ Fans had short of 24 hours to guess… And the names were finally revealed to be… Monroe and Moroccan Scott Cannon.

Their son is named Moroccan Scott Cannon. Scott is Nick’s middle name, as well as his grandmother’s maiden name. The top tier of Mariah’s New York City apartment is called the Moroccan Room, because of the Moroccan-inspired decor. It’s also the place where Nick proposed to his wife, overlooking Manhattan. Their daughter’s name is Monroe Cannon. Mariah’s rep says she does not have a middle name because Mariah herself does not have one. Monroe was named after Marilyn Monroe, who has been an inspiration to Mariah her whole life. In fact, Mariah purchased the Hollywood icon’s white piano from Christie’s auction house and it is in Mariah’s will that the piano will one day go to the Smithsonian. [CNN]
