Mariah In Aspen
Mariah @ Twitter: In Aspen, wearing the outfit I wore for my first ever Christmas video!!
Mariah Spotted Shopping In Aspen
Yep, it's cold out there: Mariah Carey swaps open-toe heels for winter boots during shopping trip in Aspen.
She's known for being a bit of a diva.
But an outfit change during a shopping trip is excessive even for her.
So it can only be that Mariah Carey misjudged the freezing weather conditions in Aspen, Colorado, yesterday when she stepped out in open-toe heels and bare legs.
The singer was spotted doing some last minute shopping in Prada ahead of her first Christmas with eight-month-old twins Monroe and Moroccan.
She had started the spree with a black winter jacket that flapped open to reveal a bare chest.
But later the 41-year-old had changed into more seasonable winter boots and a floppy hat.
The singer and husband Nick Cannon usually go to Aspen for Christmas but didn't last year due to fears the high altitude may interfere with her pregnancy.
She still went away because she has to be somewhere with snow at Christmas.
"It's got to be snowy," she said at the time.
"I was considering staying in LA because we love it, but it's not the most seasonal of places. I need snow."
Mariah is in great shape after shedding more than 70 lbs since the birth of her children.

Mariah "Humbled" By Song's Longetivity
You can't go anywhere at the moment without a Christmas song blaring out.
But one being played more than any other is the Mariah Carey smash "All I Want For Christmas Is You."
Since it was first released in 1994, the classic track has spent more than 50 weeks in the UK Top 40 and sold millions of copies worldwide.
And that's before you factor in Mariah's new version with Justin Bieber along with Michael Buble's reworking of the hit on his No1 Christmas album.
Luckily she doesn't get sick of the song as she is a massive fan of Christmas- and not just because it signals another huge payday.
Speaking exclusively to The Sun, Mariah, 41, said: "I start planning my Christmas in June.
"It's absolutely my favourite holiday and I've always loved everything about this time of year. I love cooking and I'm a smash-hit wonder in the kitchen.
"I'm going to be making the turkey, cranberry sauce and all the trimmings this Christmas. I cooked at Thanksgiving and it was a real success with everyone asking for seconds."
Mariah's love of festive anthems, including Bing Crosby's White Christmas, led her to write "All I Want."
And even she is surprised by its lasting appeal.
She said: "I'm amazed and humbled by its popularity, even all these years later. And I think it's great that people have the song as a ringtone.
"Who'd have thought, all those years ago when I wrote it, that it would still be having an impact today?"
This year the song has been kept in our heads- and charts- by the star's duet with teen sensation Justin Bieber who has released a Christmas album of his own this year.
It was a no-brainer for Mariah to work with him as it introduced an army of young Beliebers to her famous Crimbo track.
She said: "Justin's definitely a young phenomenon- fun, cute and very talented. That's why I wanted to work with him."
But it's not just pop stars who have added to the song's popularity this year.
Earlier this month sailors on the HMS Ocean warship uploaded a video of themselves miming to the track to celebrate their return home after serving seven-and-a-half months in Libya. The ship initially set off on a seven-week training exercise before being diverted to support the UN air mission during the uprising against Colonel Gaddafi. The now-famous sailors returned home last week.
Their video went viral on YouTube scoring the heroes over 2.5 million views.
Even an impressed Mariah is a fan of the clip.
She tweeted: "This is the best thing I've ever seen, you guys just made my day!"
She told us: "I love their take on it. I think it's the cutest thing ever. Very good lip-synching too.
"If I'd had more time, I would have liked to have gone down to Plymouth to meet the singing sailors and their families.
"Sadly, my trip to London is so short, I just don't have time. But I'm very glad that they've all made it home for Christmas." Mum-of-two Mariah, who has sold more than 200million records in the last 20 years, will spend the festive period with friends and family in snowy Aspen, Colorado.
Mariah, who has been married to TV presenter Nick Cannon, 31, for three years, said: "Luckily Nick is almost as over-the-top festive as me. One year we hired Santa Claus to come round with real reindeer who looked as if they were going to fly off into the snow at any moment. Everyone loved it."
This year the couple will spend their first Christmas with their eight-month-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan.
Monroe is named after superstar Marilyn and her brother's name comes from the Moroccan Room in Mariah's apartment where Nick proposed to her.
The children feature in the video for her new single When Christmas Comes, which is a duet with John Legend. She said: "I actually wrote that song when I was pregnant. There's a line in it that says, 'We can laugh together as the children play'. So it was special having the twins with me for the recording of the video."
During her pregnancy Mariah regularly posted pictures of her huge baby bump online and kept her fans updated about "dem babies" as she refers to them.
She explained: "I had a tough pregnancy. Because I was carrying twins, I was super-heavy and I think my bones just weren't used to holding up that much weight.
"I don't think I understood the enormity or the magnitude of what being pregnant does to your body. By the end I could hardly walk.
"But I don't want to dwell on that really, or sound as if I'm complaining, because I know I'm very blessed. I'm loving motherhood. It's a beautiful place to be and they're very good kids." Mariah credits her own mother, Patricia, for getting her interested in singing when she was a toddler.
The pair sang a duet last year, "O Come All Ye Faithful/Hallelujah Chorus," which was released last year on Mariah's second festive album, Merry Christmas II You.
And she hopes she can pass a love of singing on to her kids, too.
She said: "I started singing at home with my mom when I was four. I've always talked about her influence on me for my whole life. And with our duet, I felt as if we had come full circle.
"I certainly can imagine singing with the children round the tree when they're older because they really respond to music and love me to sing to them.
"And I do feel that musical ability is something that's handed down. We shall see."
Mariah has quickly shed her baby weight and credits the Jenny Craig Diet Plan- a company which ships special healthy ready meals to you- for helping her to slim down.
She said: "I had a lot of weight to lose because I'd retained so much water. Someone recommended the "Jenny" programme to me and it was exactly what I was looking for.
"It's quick but also very nutritious. I also did gentle aqua exercise as often as I could."
Mariah was so impressed with the "Jenny diet" she has become its US ambassador.
She said: "I wanted to help create awareness about healthy eating and losing weight. My pregnancy and weight gain made me realise what some women grapple with all their lives. At one point I thought I would never see my bone structure again."
Mariah was in London to pick up a Noble Gift Humanitarian Award for her charity work.
The singer said: "Several years ago I co-founded Camp Mariah, which is part of the Fresh Air Fund. This enables inner-city kids to look at their educational and career opportunities while enjoying camping adventures outside of the city.
"I'm planning on going camping with the kids again next summer."

Mariah Carey and Justin Bieber Set “X Factor” Date
Mariah Carey and little Justin Bieber are set to perform on “X Factor.” Their December 15th performance will be of their new duet on Mariah’s classic hit, “All I Want for Christmas Is You.” Carey wrote the song and released it 17 years ago, in November 1994. (Wait! November 1994 was seventeen years ago? OMG.) Since then, “All I Want” has become a Christmas perennial. This year she re-recorded it with Justin Bieber, who sings back up in his new low register. He isn’t Perry Como or even Steven Tyler, but the keeps up with Miss 8 Octaves and doesn’t do too badly. Carey has said she will make a number of appearances on “X Factor” this season, largely because it’s controlled by her record company, Universal Music. Also, her former and future label chief, L.A. Reid, a is a judge. This is complicated because her unofficial manager and music director Randy Jackson is a judge and mainstay of “American Idol.” At any rate, set your DVRs to see the newly slimmed down Mariah sex up Justin on live TV. Let’s hope there’s no wardrobe malfunction…

Mariah & John Legend's "When Christmas Comes" Available on iTunes Now!
Unwrap a gift of soulful holiday music this Christmas season by downloading Mariah's brand new duet with John Legend of her holiday song When Christmas Comes available on iTunes now!
Mariah Carey + John Legend, ‘When Christmas Comes’ – Song Review
As the creator of ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You,’ the only song of the past 20 years strong enough to become a holiday classic, Mariah Carey has an obvious talent for writing festive songs for the season. On ‘When Christmas Comes,’ she joins John Legend for a sultry duet about giving the gift of love.
Mariah’s voice is strong as she harmonizes with Legend on the lines, “And me and you gon’ have ourselves a holiday / And we don’t need nobody else to celebrate / And we’re gon’ kiss our worries and our cares away / I can’t wait / Because this Christmas time, get together / It’s gonna be so nice, better than ever / And baby you’re the one, special treasure.”
‘When Christmas Comes’ features horns and piano accenting a simple R&B groove. Before the final chorus, as the singers freelance on a few bars of ‘Jingle Bells,’ listeners are treated to notes from the upper reaches of Mariah’s five-octave range, which she rarely shows off anymore.
Some of the cutesy imagery falls flat, like, “I can’t wait to unwrap your love.” But otherwise, it’s hard to find fault with the holiday duet from two of pop music’s most powerful vocalists. The song is an improved version of the track that Carey performed solo on 2010′s ‘Merry Christmas II You.’

Randy Jackson to Manage Mariah Carey?
andy Jackson is adding an A-lister to his dawg pound. The "American Idol" judge is negotiating a deal to manage Mariah Carey's career, sources tell The Hollywood Reporter. The duo know each other from their Columbia Records days when Jackson was vice president of A&R during the 1990s and Carey was signed to the label from 1988 to 2001.
Over the years, Jackson has produced, co-written and appeared on many Carey recordings. He's also played bass for the superstar both in the studio and on the road. Among his Carey credits: Jackson wrote and produced two songs for her 2001 film, "Glitter." On her 2002 Island Def Jam debut "Charmbracelet," Jackson is listed as composer, producer and percussionist while on her 2005 smash "Emancipation of Mimi," he returned to play bass and also appears in the video to Carey's cover of Def Leppard's "Bringin' on the Heartbreak." Throughout her career, he has served as Carey's musical director and most recently, he produced her 2010 Christmas album, "Merry Christmas II You."
Carey, who gave birth to twins in April, was previously signed to Chris Lighty's Violator Entertainment, which represents such artists as 50 Cent, LL Cool J and Soulja Boy. In September, the company merged with Primary Wave, management home to Cee-Lo Green and Eric Benet.
Jackson is no stranger to the management game, having worked with funk-flavored rocker Nikka Costa, soul singer Van Hunt and North Carolina-based band Paper Tongues, who are signed to Universal Music-owned A&M/Octone Records. He's one of several notable musicians who also guide the careers of others. Back in the 1990s, when he was known as Puff Daddy, Sean "P. Diddy" Combs managed rapper Notorious B.I.G. More recently, he guided "Making the Band" winners Danity Kane and was reportedly working with Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross. Jay-Z, by virtue of running management company RocNation, has a hand in the careers of Rihanna and Willow Smith. Usher, in partnership with Justin Bieber manager Scooter Braun, can also lay claim to some of the pop phenom's success.
On Nov. 2, Jackson was in full management mode as he accompanied Carey to film the music video for "All I Want For Christmas Is You," her duet with Bieber, which appears on his "Under the Mistletoe" album (out now). The nine-hour night shoot took place at Macy's Herald Square in New York City and, according to observers, Jackson stayed for the duration. A few days later, he was seen at Carey's label offices where he was taking meetings. Says a source: "He's very much in the mix."

Mariah & John Legend on "When Christmas Comes" Set
Mariah and John Legend are currently shooting the music video to their festive Christmas collabo "When Christmas Comes" and we have the exclusive pictures for you!
Justin Bieber was born the year that Mariah Carey first released 'All I Want for Christmas Is You.' Now their duet of the song is on the Hot 100.
CAREY ON: With the help of an artist who was less than a year old when the song was originally released, Mariah Carey returns to the Billboard Hot 100 with an update of "All I Want for Christmas Is You." Justin Bieber (born March 1, 1994) and Carey's duet of the song, parenthetically titled the "Superfestive!" version, arrives at No. 86 on the chart, as Bieber's seasonal set "Under the Mistletoe" becomes the first album by a male artist to launch at No. 1 on the Billboard 200.
The original "Christmas" reached No. 12 on Radio Songs and No. 6 on Adult Contemporary in the 1994 holiday season. (Chart rules at the time prevented the non-commercially-available single from appearing on the Hot 100 that year).
Last week in New York, Mariah Carey and Justin Bieber shot the forthcoming video for their new version of "All I Want for Christmas Is You," which Carey first made a solo smash in 1994.
With the bow, Carey notches her 44th Hot 100 hit. Her prior visit was likewise Yuletide-themed: "Oh Santa!" spent a week at No. 100 last holiday season. (Before that, "Up Out My Face," which marked the second Hot 100 appearance for guest Nicki Minaj, also tallied a lone week at the chart's anchor position).
Here is an updated count of the women with the most charted titles, and their career chart spans, in the Hot 100's 53-year history:
73, Aretha Franklin, 1961-98
56, Dionne Warwick, 1962-98
55, Madonna, 1983-2009
53, Connie Francis, 1958-69
48, Brenda Lee, 1959-73
44, Mariah Carey, 1990-2011
41, Barbra Streisand, 1964-97
40, Diana Ross, 1970-86
39, Mary J. Blige, 1992-2010
39, Whitney Houston, 1984-2009
39, Janet Jackson, 1982-2008
39, Taylor Swift, 2006-11 (Notably, the digital era has helped Swift score multiple Hot 100 entries with album cuts the weeks that her last two studio sets, "Fearless" (2008) and "Speak Now" (2010), have debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. As she's due to arrive on next week's Hot 100 with multiple tracks from the forthcoming "Speak Now" re-issue, this list will likely appear in revised form in next week's "Weekly Notes" column).
"Christmas" has clearly become a modern holiday classic. In addition to Bieber and Carey's new duet, Michael Buble's take on the song, from his new album "Christmas," which ranks at No. 8 on the Billboard 200 after opening at No. 3 last week, is bubbling under the Adult Contemporary chart.
Last holiday season, Lady Antebellum sent its cover of "Christmas" to No. 38 on Country Songs; Newsboys' interpretation rose to No. 24 on Christian Songs; and, Big Time Rush's remake topped Kid Digital Songs. Carey's own 2010 re-recording of the carol peaked at No. 4 on Holiday Digital Songs last year.
Carey could soon impact Billboard charts with another holiday hit, a remix of "When Christmas Comes" (originally released last year on her holiday set "Merry Christmas II You") with John Legend.
"Coming soon, a legendary musical collabo. #WhenChristmasComes," Carey Tweeted Monday. "Me & the legendary John, soon to be topping your Christmas list! P.S. It's a SGSHW!"
(As Mariah Lambs know, SGSHW is shorthand for "stone groove smash hit wonder").

Mariah Carey: I Lost 30 Pounds of Baby Weight in 3 Months!
"Shake It Off," indeed!Six months after welcoming twins Moroccan and Monroe, Mariah Carey has lost 30 pounds -- and shows off her toned legs and flat stomach in size-6 short-shorts on the stunning new cover of Us Weekly, out now.
"I gained an enormous amount of weight," the Grammy-winner superstar tells Us of welcoming her son and daughter April 30 with hubby Nick Cannon.
How'd she slim down? Beginning in July, Carey buckled down with a nutritionist and a workout plan from Jenny (formerly Jenny Craig), keeping to a 1,500-calorie-a-day menu and thrice-weekly workouts.
"I feel incredible," the "Fly Like a Bird" singer tells Us, three months after her body transformation began. She and Cannon, 31, famously struggled to conceive their twins (born via C-section at 35 weeks) after a heartbreaking miscarriage.
"It was a huge blessing to be able to have the babies," Carey says, "But I felt trapped in my body because I couldn't move."
Adds the once-again svelte star: "I'm proud of how hard I worked to get my body back...I had to do this for me."
For much more of our cover story on Mariah's incredible transformation -- her body ups and downs, a sample menu and workout plan, adorable new snapshots of the babies, what Nick thinks of her new body and whether she'll lose more weight -- pick up the new Us Weekly, on stands Friday!

Mariah Carey sings praises of Jenny Craig after weight loss
Singer Mariah Carey made it happen and hopes to inspire others to do the same.Carey, 42, lost the weight she gained during her pregnancy. She and her husband, Nick Cannon, have twins, Monroe and Moroccan Scott Cannon, born April 30. She has dropped 30 pounds on the Jenny Craig weight-loss program since July 22 and is the company's new celebrity spokeswoman.
"I feel better in every way," says Carey, who has sold more than 200 million albums worldwide and had 18 No. 1 singles. "To me, it's mind, body and soul. I was in a bad place physically during my pregnancy."
When she was expecting, Carey had gestational diabetes and severe edema — swelling caused by excess fluid trapped in the body's tissues.
"Edema was the probably the most painful thing I went through during my pregnancy. My legs looked three times the size of what my legs do right now. I thought I would never be the same person again."
After the twins were born, "I lost a lot of water weight initially, and then I lost 30 pounds on top of that."
Over the years, she has shared her emotional struggles, and now she's sharing her weight-loss struggles for people "going through the pain and shame — everything that comes with weight gain."
Some of her future commercials for Jenny, the company's new shortened name, will feature her song Make It Happen. "I wrote that song from personal experience."
The song is "so fitting because a lot of people give up hope when they have had their kids and can't lose that 20 pounds or 40 pounds, or they have gone through issues with weight their entire lives. It becomes so frustrating and debilitating that you give up."
Carey says she had a few indulgences during her pregnancy, including sugary drinks, soul food and pizza. But she doesn't know how much weight she gained because she didn't weigh herself. "I was walking around the house, pregnant and miserable, looking at mirrors and saying: "Why did I put so many mirrors in my house?' "After the babies were born by cesarean section, she breast-fed them for a while and followed a regular diet.
Several weight-loss companies called her about working with them, Carey says, but when she spoke to the executives at Jenny, "all of whom had their own issues with weight," she felt "a kinship with everybody I spoke with."
The company is known for its high-profile success stories, including actresses Carrie Fisher and Valerie Bertinelli, lifestyle counseling services and packaged food eaten in combination with high-fiber fruits and vegetables.
Carey also will be working with Jenny in a new venture to support and promote the American Heart Association's new initiative, My Heart. My Life.
Dana Fiser, CEO of Jenny, says, "We are thrilled to have her commitment for such a big cause for several years."
Fiser says the company hopes that the combination of Carey and its new name to broaden its appeal to younger women.
In July, when Carey was no longer breast-feeding the twins, she started on the Jenny program, ate the company's foods and was particularly fond of their soups. She says she mixed it up and did some of her own cooking, too, which is part of the program. She does mostly aquatic workouts for 45 minutes four or five days a week.
Speaking of her current weight, Carey says she doesn't go by the scale but by "my dress size. Right now I am between a 4 or 6." She's 5-foot-9.
About her weight loss, she adds, "I worked like a fiend."

Mariah Carey: I Lost 70 Lbs. After Twins
Mariah Carey wasn't shy about showing off her baby bump when she was pregnant with now-6-month-old twins Moroccan and Monroe Cannon.And now, she's positively ecstatic about unveiling her hot new post-baby body after losing, she says, a full 70 lbs.
On Tuesday's episode of The Rosie Show on OWN, Carey, 42, was lowered diva-style onto the stage riding on a crescent moon and wearing a skin-tight black mini-skirt and cleavage-baring leather jacket.
She then explained her new physique was courtesy of a strict diet and exercise – along with the loss of what she says is about 40 lbs. of water due to a difficult pregnancy.
"In the beginning, when I first had the babies, I had so much edema … water and swelling. Most pregnant woman have that just in their feet," Carey says. "One day I was doing my thank-you notes and I noticed it started rising up the leg, so I had edema. … I didn't think I would ever be the same person."
Diet Plan Spokeswoman
Once she'd shed the water weight, Carey embarked on the Jenny diet plan (formerly Jenny Craig), for which she now serves as a spokeswoman.
"The first week, I lost 40 lbs. … of just water," Carey says. "It was just water, initially. When I started with the program, I lost at least 30 lbs. of weight that needed to be lost."
And, says Carey, it wasn't all about appearance. Carrying so much extra weight made everyday tasks, including going to the bathroom, a challenge.
"I had a really tough pregnancy," she says. "I was supposed to be on bed rest, but it was so bad that even bed hurt. … I learned a lot being pregnant, watching my body change."
She adds, "The whole point of this is not just like: 'Oh, hey, look at me and my weight loss, I'm fantastic.' It's really health. Like I said, I learned it when I became helpless and felt so vulnerable like never before in my life."
How She Did It
Because she had a Cesarean section, Carey says exercise wasn't an option early on. So, she says, "The diet is 90 percent of it."
Remembering to eat was one of her biggest challenges because, she says, she believes if she goes too long without refueling, "You slow down your metabolism."
For her, it was important "being able to just grab something. I like the soups a lot. It's 50 calories. I gotta say I like the snacks too."
Carey also regained her fitness by exercising with her dogs and doing workouts in the ocean.
One thing she won't stick with once she meets her goal.
"I never weighed myself," she explains. "People will think I'm a liar but it's true. This is another cliché phrase, I'm a big boned girl … I'm tall and so I always weigh more."
Instead of weighing herself, she says, "I would tend to go, 'Does this size dress fit me that I wore three years ago? I'm good, let's go.' I would go by what it looked like, how I felt."

Justin Bieber Shoots 'Classic' Video With Mariah
Bieber and Carey both tweeted about the video for their reimagining of her classic holiday tune "All I Want for Christmas Is You."
"Might have to go shoot this video with @mariahcarey for our duet! focused on the positives ... the music. #UNDERTHEMISTLETOE," Bieber tweeted about the shoot, referring to a California woman's claim that he fathered her child.
"4:30am and going hard on the 'All I Want for Christmas Is You' shoot with @mariahcarey !! #superfestive #underthemistletoe," he later shared. The original video for the tune, shot to look like a home video, features Carey decked out in skimpy Santa suits and snow-bunny garb, running around decorating Christmas trees, playing in the snow, hanging with Santa and his elves, and generally getting into the holiday spirit.
Mariah Carey seemed equally stoked about the video shoot, gushing about it on her Twitter: "Shooting the final take of 'All I Want.' duet with surprise appearance by Jilly beans & directed by my friend, the wonderful Sanaa Hamri," she said, noting that the shoot was made even more special because it coincided with one of her personal milestones.
"Happy anniversary to [my album] MERRY CHRISTMAS II YOU!!!" she added.

Hamri has shot videos for Carey's "Crybaby," "Bringing on the Heartbreak" and "Don't Stop (Funkin' 4 Jamaica)," as well as clips for Nicki Minaj, Jay-Z and Christina Aguilera.
The shoot lasted all night, with Bieber tweeting Thursday morning (November 3) that Carey and the crew had wrapped up. "Just wrapped the ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU with the icon and amazing @mariahcarey !" he wrote. "HONORED and I think this video is gonna b classic!"
Bieber told MTV News that getting Carey to join him for the duet was surprisingly easy. "Mariah Carey is doing it with me! It's incredible. So excited," he said. "We wanted Mariah from the beginning, but we kind of thought it was really hard, so we didn't really push the idea. But she's on my label, so we reached out to some people, she got in contact with us, and Randy Jackson was actually at the studio with us, and I was like, 'Yo, you think you can help get Mariah on the Christmas album?' And he was like, 'I'm actually going to see her in New York on Monday,' and I was like 'Yo, go do that!' "

Justin Bieber + Mariah Carey, ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ (Remix) – Song Review
Forget Halloween, because Christmas came early this year! One by one like precious snowflakes from the sky, tracks from Justin Bieber‘s ‘Under the Mistletoe’ are leaking … Like … Well, a bad security job. Fresh out of the oven is the Biebs’ collab with Mariah Carey on the classic ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You.’Mariah’s Christmas ditty is as legit as it gets, and while it’s rarely a good idea to try and recreate a good thing, mixing in the Biebs is a sure shot no matter what — and this new remixed song is no exception.
The ‘Baby’ singer and his ‘Always Be My Baby’ elder trade off lines, leaving the door open for the Biebs to show off his vocal range.“I won’t ask for much this Christmas, I won’t even wish for snow / I’m just gonna keep on waiting underneath the mistletoe,” Bieber sings, making all of the snow — and the girls — melt when he finishes sweetly, “all I want for Christmas is you.”
Though Bieber was a wee infant in a manger when Mariah’s ‘All I Want for Christmas Is You’ originally hit the shelves in 1994, he manages to take it down with almost as much gusto as the original — though even he won’t say that his duet trumps it. “I was very honored,” Biebs told Access Hollywood, referring to when he initially approached the 41-year-old icon. “I really wanted to do the song and I couldn’t do it better than her,” he added. “To have her on the song with me, it gives me the stamp.”

Ready to Meet Roec and Roe? Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon Introduce Twins
Back on April 30th, 2011, pop diva Mariah Carey and her multi-talented husband Nick Cannon celebrated the birth of their twins on the same day as their wedding anniversary. The showbiz twins, named Monroe and Moroccan, have been seemingly on lockdown since their birth, with the loving parents keeping them away from the paparazzi. This Friday, Barbara Walters gets the first introduction, as the glowing Hollywood couple introduces their baby boy and girl to the world.
All photos of the interview hide the faces of the twins, so that the on-air moment this Friday is the first actual glimpse of the almost 6-month-old babies. In addition to meeting the twins for the first time, the celebrity couple reveals details of their babies' personalities. The twosome was named after icon Marilyn Monroe and the Moroccan themed room in their New York apartment where Nick proposed. Nicknamed "Roe" and "Roc," the twins seem to be emulating their parents' behaviors. Cannon, the host of "America's Got Talent," boasts that daughter Monroe is a little diva like her mother, whilst son Moroccan is "laid back."
The 20/20 article gives Barbara Walters the chance to interview the couple about the twins -- clad in New York chic attire -- as well as the challenges of pregnancy and the strength of their marriage. With a ten-year difference in age -- Carey is 41 and Cannon is 31 -- many have questioned the potency of this odd coupling. Three and half years after their marriage, the couple added twins to their family and seem to be going strong.
This rare and controlled glimpse into the lives of Roe and Roc seem to suggest that the couple are taking parenting seriously, and doing all they can to protect and nurture their young brood. The singer who stunned fans with a raw performance in 2009's "Precious" admitted that pregnancy was tough on her, but was "a sacrifice you make for them." Allowing only the queen of celebrity interviewing this chance to introduce the twins to the world and by conducting the interview in the couple's New York home, it is clear that Mariah and Nick are set on keeping much of their family life and budding family protected and private, whilst still sharing the joy and excitement with their fans.
Tune into 20/20 on Friday, October 21st, to see if Roe and Roc look more like Mommy or Daddy. It may be the only opportunity for some time to come to get a glimpse into the Carey-Cannon home and to meet two future stars of Hollywood.

MC - A perfect day... your location is a sunny beach in the Bahamas perhaps or in the Mediterranean coast, and upon waking in the afternoon, you decide to skip breakfast and go into the ocean after your mimosa! Then you slide down the water slide which is naturally there on your yacht!! You swim in the water for a little bit, have fun... maybe some dolphins swim by! You swim until you get tired and laugh with your friends and family (in my case that would be the lambily!) until the evening!
Lucas Pereira - Hey Mimi, I'm from Brazil and I love you <3, my question is: How was recording with Tony Bennett? pls answer me, dahhhling! haha.
MC - Hii thank you so much. LYM! Recording with Tony was an honor and an educational moment for me because he is legendary and I learned so much from the way he records, right off the cuff!
Kathryn Krastin - So admire you +Mariah Carey. Just wondering what's next for you? What will you conquer next? Keep the faith going. You ARE phenomenally amazing!!
MC - Thank you so much, that's very sweet of you. I'm working on new music right now which I'm very excited about and I have other creative endeavors coming up as well!
Toby Horn - Are you involved with any organizations that we might be interested in joining or helping?
MC - Camp Mariah is the one closest to my heart. It is a career awareness camp for 600 kids every summer and they learn about different career opportunities as well as having fun experiencing the beautiful natural surroundings of upstate New York.
SARAH OWENS - hi, mc! are you gonna show us #dembabies sometime soon? happy almost 5 months to roc & roe! - <3 sarah (original lamb since 1990!)
MC - We're trying to figure out a way to do it but it's a delicate situation. We want to share the pictures with the world because they're our children and we're very proud of them but we just have to be very aware of how we do it. It will probably be on the internet as opposed to a tabloid or something!
Christine Gwasda - hi mariah!! how are you?! so i have a girly question for you- what's your favorite nail color of the moment? (these things are important! lol) hope you are doin fabulous! see u soon xxoo, Christine
MC - Hey Christine, thank you for the nice question! I saw a brand new nail color by Chanel that's like a cantaloupe color and it was pretty!! but right now I'm feeling this color that I found.. it is black yet platinum! Say hi to Kelly!
Rafael Mônaco - Will you perform "Can't Take That Away" again? I realy love this song!
MC - Thank you, I was thinking about doing that song again! I was recently listening to the triumphant remix... "there's a light that shines in me..." (singing!!!)
Ash Chopra - Now with two smashing stone groove Christmas albums under your belt, will we finally see a Christmas musical/pantomine?
MC - Hi Ash, thanks for the question! All I can say is... you'll find out soon!
Tre Greaves - How's life as a new mom? and how has it changed your outlook on the way you view life and your music? :)
MC - Very challenging! It's changed my outlook on life in so many ways. I really love my babies Roc+ Monroe so much it is indescribable.
MC- Thank you so much for all your questions!! I'm very excited about my upcoming projects and I have enjoyed you all very much. L-Y-M!!!!

Joan Collins: Mariah Carey Looks "Perfect"
Joan Collins thinks Rihanna, Beyoncé Knowles and Mariah Carey look "perfect".
The 78-year-old is famous for her signature look of bright red lipstick and large shoulder pads. Joan has kept this style ever since she played the role of Alexis on 80s TV show Dynasty.
The actress and novelist has complimented some of the women she thinks dress well in show business today.
"Rihanna is always exquisitely dressed," Joan told the British edition of OK! magazine, "and so are Beyoncé and Mariah Carey - I think those girls look perfect."
However, Joan also hinted that some of music's more extravagant icons aren't always to her taste. Lady Gaga's famous meat dress and colourful wigs were are "not quite [Joan's] scene."
The glamorous star also revealed she doesn't spend much time getting ready. Joan has perfected her beauty routine over the years and it now takes her under half an hour to do her hair and make-up.
"I have a hairstyle that's just wash and go really," she confessed "I put make-up on very fast, that's why we call it slap in the business! It's usually just moisturiser, base, powder, lipstick and sunglasses."

Justin Bieber takes on Queen of Christmas MAriah Carey
VMA winner Justin Bieber is a young guy, so he might not be aware that by producing an entirely original Christmas album he is stepping into an arena dominated almost exclusively by one of pop's biggest divas, Santa's Helper outfit enthusiast Mariah Carey.
For all intents and purposes, Mariah Carey is the unofficial Queen of Christmas. She wears Santa hats in public (and has miniature ones on her dogs), puts together holiday music spectaculars and usually celebrates the holiday with a lavish vacation in Aspen. A Google search of "Mariah Carey Christmas" returns over 45 million results and the video for her 1994 single "All I Want For Christmas Is You" has over 28 million views on YouTube.
The pop star has released two Christmas albums, 1994's Merry Christmas and last year's Merry Christmas II You, and while neither is wholly original (the second is principally standards with only a few original tunes), Carey owns this niche. Merry Christmas is the biggest selling Christmas album of all time, with worldwide sales exceeding 15 million copies.
And if Biebs is taking the original song route, he should be aware that Carey has set a pretty high bar. In the 17 years since its release, "All I Want For Christmas Is You" has become a standard itself – the New Yorker called it "one of the few worthy modern additions to the holiday canon." The track resurfaces on worldwide singles charts every holiday season, and topped the Billboard Hot 100 Re-currents Chart every year from 2005-08. The numbers for it are actually kind of staggering – "All I Want For Christmas Is You" is the best selling holiday digital single ever (and the nineteenth best-selling digital single of the 20th Century!), the most downloaded holiday ringtone of all time and is Carey's biggest single ever in the UK.
It's probably worth noting here that we cannot speak impartially about Carey or "All I Want." Like so many others who grew up during the peak of her popularity, the song has become the Christmas track of our generation. Little Drummer who? Jingle what? It is inescapable and amazing. During college we used to ride around with friends singing "All I Want For Christmas Is You" in the middle of July. This song is so good, it's Christmas every damn day, if you ask us.
And now the kids will have fresh Bieber songs to spike their holiday season. We'll stick with our girl Mariah, but that's great for them. Bieber is a talented kid, so there's no doubt he'll deliver the goods. And if he plays his cards right, as Carey did, he'll be living off royalties for years to come. How else do you think she affords all that glitter?!

X Factor: Mariah Will Appear – But Not as a Judge
It's official – Mariah Carey will appear on this fall's buzzy new talent competition, The X Factor, a source close to the show tells PEOPLE exclusively.
Carey won't be a judge, but rather a guest of a judge – in this case Simon Cowell, who hinted recently the diva was interested in joining the show.
"Mariah is definitely confirmed to be a part of X Factor," the source says. "She is confirmed to tape something with Simon Cowell at the judge's homes."
And Carey won't be the only celeb guest, the source adds.
"Each of the judges will tape something with mentors they have selected and Simon has selected Mariah to do that with him. The judge's mentor the talent they pick and she will be working with them," says the source.

Well… not her human ones, but still!
Check out Mariah Carey getting in a jog with the Jack Russell Terriers… looks like she’s getting a pretty tangled workout!
Mariah tweeted the photo with the caption, “Jogging puppystyle!” Jogging with the dogs is just one part of Mariah’s workout plan after having twins. She’s also tweeted photos of her splashing in the ocean and shared that she’s got a personal trainer to help her get back into shape.
Looking great, Mariah! Now, about those twins photos of Moroccan and Monroe… can we see them already?!
By the way, Mariah’s dogs are named Jill E. Beans, Cha Cha, Squeak E. Beans, JJ, and Jackie Lambchops.

Is Mariah Carey Joining X Factor?
What you might not know about The X Factor is that unlike American Idol, this upcoming Fox series shows "everything" behind the scenes. At least that's the word from überproducer/resident cranky pants Simon Cowell, who tackled Q's from reporters today at the Television Critics Association Press Tour, along with Paula Abdul, Nicole Scherzinger and the rest of the show's cast and crew.
We got our first glimpse of some of that candor as Simon addressed rumors Mariah Carey might be a part of X Factor, what really happened with ousted judge Cheryl Cole and more. So is Mariah coming on?
Sure sounds like it. According to Simon, he wanted Mariah to be a judge, but now she'll appear in a different way. "There's certain sections on the show where we do have well known people helping us on the show," Simon explains. "I talked to her the other day, and she's been enthusiastic since day one. But then she selfishly got pregnant which is why she didn't end up as a judge."
The X Factor begins Sept. 21 with auditions.

New mother Mariah Carey is back in shape and back in a swimsuit after giving birth to twins
She recently complained her body had gone through so much to give birth to her twins earlier this year.
But it certainly looks like Mariah Carey is getting back to her normal self if this spectacular beach photo is anything to go by.
The 41-year-old Glitter star sparkled as she showed off her curves in a flattering black swimsuit.
Mariah Carey tweet on 2nd August, 2011 Ocean work out! It's been a loooong time since I've been in the ocean (said like 'OPEN' in cruise control)
The overjoyed Heartbreaker vocalist could not resist giving her fans a sneak peak of her new look, as she posted the snap on Twitter.
She said: 'Ocean work out! It's been a loooong time since I've been in the ocean.'
Back in shape: The singer worked hard to shift the pounds gained during her pregnancy with Monroe and Morocco
The shot is even more amazing because less than a week ago the singer was moaning about how difficult being pregnant had been, and the affect it had on her body.

‘My body went through so much’: Diva Mariah Carey complains about her 'really difficult' pregnancy in bizarre TV interview
Strictly Come Prancing: Julianne Hough shows off her toned dancer physique as she larks around on the beach
The I'll Be Loving U Long Time singer said: ''Everyone was always saying to me, "Oh but it's all worth it".
'And I was like, "Yeah well it's easy for you to say when you're not the one whose feet are this big".'
'It turned into a really difficult time. [Being] pregnant with twins is different to anything.
'My body went through so much - you have to keep those twins in as long as possible, but it's a sacrifice you make for them.
'I was literally 47 weeks pregnant.'
Mariah is getting back into the spotlight after keeping a low profile since the April birth of her twin children with her 30-year-old husband Nick Cannon.
Perhaps she was getting in shape as preparation for her fan-dream collaboration with easy listening legend Tony Bennett.
She is teaming up with the crooner to do a version of When Do The Bells Ring For Me on his Duets II album.

Mariah Carey on HSN
Mariah Carey returned to television for the first time since giving birth to her twins. The new mom spoke about her babies and got a visit from husband Nick Cannon while launching her new lifestyle collection on HSN.
During the live chat, Mimi showed off the floral fashions inspired by her visits to Capri and joked about the name for her fragrance Lollipop Bling. “No, I didn’t select that name,” she said. “Sorry, it was something I couldn’t undo. It wasn’t my favorite name but people love it.”
She also plugged her latest fragrance collection named after her songs. “There’s a version with a very popular singer named Trey Songz and we kinda did a duet with this song,” she said of “Inseparable.” “So it’s ironic that I have this remix of the song ‘Inseparable’ and I think my label Universal Records should put it out.”
Nick paid his wife a visit and the proud parents gushed about their twins Monroe and Morrocan. “I believe our son looks just like Mariah and I think our daughter looks like me,” said Nick.
