Diva Mariah Carey made headlines last week, following the fairytale birth of her and husband Nick Cannon’s twins (a boy and girl) – on their 3rd wedding anniversary.
Given the ‘out there’ nature of mother dearest, focus immediately shifted to what names the pair had concocted for their offspring.
Now, speculation can be laid to rest, after Carey’s rep lifted the lid on the youngster’s names.
Find out what Mariah and Nick chose after the jump. And yes, they’re “Hollywood”.
Speaking exclusively to CNN, Carey’s longtime manager Cindi Berger revealed that the couple’s daughter is named Monroe Cannon – in tribute to movie star Marilyn Monroe, who has been a lifelong inspiration to the singer. No middle-names for the little diva, as quote-unquote ‘mother doesn’t have one’.
The couple’s son, according to the report, has been christened Moroccan Scott Cannon. With Scott serving as Nick’s middle name, as well as his grandmother’s maiden name. And Moroccan being drawn from the top-tier room in their home called the Moroccan Room. Beyond its Moroccan-inspired decor, it’s also the place where Nick proposed to his wife, overlooking Manhattan. {Source}
We, here at That Grape Juice are elated for Mariah and co. As anticipated, the names are…very Mimi!
From a musical standpoint, though, it’d be great to see the youngsters provide fresh inspiration for mother. No more cookie-cutter playground songs, or ill-fitting dresses. Here’s to a new chapter.
