Mariah Carey gave fans a surprise treat this week by unexpectedly showing up during her 13-year-old son Moroccan’s Twitch livestream.
According to the Daily Mail, the 56-year-old music icon briefly came into view of the camera, which caused a wave of excited reactions from the viewers.
Wearing black and holding a small white dog, Carey entered the room shortly after her daughter Monroe, responding to her son’s question, “You wanna come here, mom?” Fans quickly filled the chat with messages, with one person repeatedly typing, “Hi, Mrs. Carey!”
As the chat became lively with excitement, Moroccan, looking clearly embarrassed, asked his superstar mom and sister to leave, as reported by the publication.
Regarding this, he said, “Y’all need to get out now. Everybody get out,” while covering his face in embarrassment as Carey crouched down to the camera and sweetly replied to the viewers, “Hi, I love you too.”
This heartwarming and funny moment resonated with fans across social media.
Many comments poured in, praising Carey for having a relatable mom moment.
Furthermore, one Reddit user joked, “You might be a megastar for nearly four decades, but for your teenage son, you’ll always be the awkward mom.”
Meanwhile, others commended Carey for raising “normal and grounded” children, even with her megastar status, according to the outlet.
Additionally, this lighthearted interaction also led to comparisons with Carey’s former husband, Nick Cannon, the father of her twins, who has 12 children with several different partners.
Moreover, one user commented, “Oh look, a parent who has time to spend an appropriate amount of time with their kids,” with another adding, “An appropriate number of kids to spend time with.”
It is important to note that Carey and Cannon welcomed Moroccan and Monroe in 2011.
