The stars: They embarrass their kids just like us.
Mariah Carey, 56, made a surprise cameo Thursday on her 13-year-old son Moroccan Cannon’s live Twitch stream, leaving him hilariously mortified and desperate to get her out of the shot.
Cannon, whose father is Nick Cannon, broadcast out of a bedroom on Twitch, a platform where users stream themselves playing video games. Early on in the stream, he muted his microphone while talking to somebody out of frame.
“Sorry, chat,” he said after briefly unmuting himself. “My mom is here.”
Cannon’s twin sister Monroe could soon be seen in the background, followed by Carey herself. After Cannon asked his mom if she wanted to come over, Carey crouched down into the shot while holding a dog.
“Y’all need to get out, now,” Cannon told his mother and sister. “Everybody get out. Mom, they can see you.”
The 13-year-old, who wore a Kirby beanie, proceeded to put his head in his hand in frustration as a chat of live viewers freaked out about the music icon’s presence. After she addressed live viewers, Cannon again asked, “Can y’all please get out? … Get out of my room!”
Eventually, Cannon just turned off his camera entirely but could be heard continuing to ask his family to leave, saying, “Bro, get out. Oh, my God. I love you, mom. Shut the door, please!”
Cannon’s live chat was displayed on screen during the broadcast, showing users type in messages like “HII MARIAH I LOVE YOU,” “hi Ms. Carey” and “is that actually Mariah Carey?”
Cannon broadcasts under the username curlyhairrocky on Twitch, where his “about” page clarifies, “Yes, I am Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon’s son, please stop asking.” He describes himself as “a 13 year old streamer who is just trying to get big on Twitch and YouTube.”
As a clip from the Twitch stream made the rounds, one viral X post quipped, “This is so funny because mariah carey is one of the greatest singers of all time and to bro she’s just an embarrassing mom.”
Carey welcomed twins Moroccan and Monroe in 2011 with her then-husband Nick Cannon. The former couple later split and finalized their divorce in 2016.
When the “All I Want For Christmas Is You” singer teamed up with Fortnite last year, she told People that her son introduced her to the video game, revealing, “I was watching my son play Fortnite for the longest time, and then he taught me how to play.”
