They’re often seen in an array of stylish designer clothes.
But safety comes first, of course, and today Mariah Carey was seen helping her cute twins into their fluorescent life vests as they took a boat ride in Capri, Italy.
While the bright yellow jackets may have covered Monroe and Moroccan’s fantastic outfits, the 13-month-old brother and sister still looked impossibly cute.
Monroe was clad in a pretty pink dress while Moroccan was dressed in a pair of jeans and check shirt.
Mariah, 42, who is married to America’s Got Talent host Nick Cannon, flew out from the States last week.
Her first stop was Morocco – the place which inspired her son’s name – where she performed at the 11th edition of the Mawazine International Music Festival.
From there she has now moved on to Capri, in the scenic Campania region of Italy.
Mariah, who was pictured with her twins yesterday, put style before comfort as she embarked on a boat ride, wearing a minidress and platform heels.
Carey, whose net worth was estimated at more than $500 million last year, spares no expense when it comes to spoiling her ultra-cute babies, affectionately called ‘Dem Babies’ by their parents.
At their lavish black-tie birthday party last month, the tots were gifted a toy Ferrari, rocking horse, and miniature white piano while celebrating at the Plaza Athenee in Paris.
Mariah also reportedly spent millions of dollars creating a luxurious nursery for her little ones, including Chelsea Sleigh cribs, Clara changing table, 24-carat gold and onyx sofa, diamond-encrusted iPods, and a flatscreen TV that comes down from the ceiling.
Mariah Carey showed off her super cute twin babies Monroe and Moroccan to fans on Twitter…
Clearly a big fan of social media, Mariah Carey couldn’t resist sharing some super cute pictures of her gorgeous twin toddlers Monroe and Moroccan.
Photographed with a baby on each arm, Mariah couldn’t have looked happier as she strutted her stuff with her 13-month-old twins.
And her hubby Nick Cannon also got in on the act, tweeting another image of “Roc and Roe” on their patio.
The twin toddlers are now very used to being snapped as they have their very own website – Dembabies.com – featuring countless adorable shots of the gorgeous family.
Hello Magazine reports:
Two adorable toddlers play in their toy car on a garden patio.
This is the latest photo of Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon’s twins, Moroccan Scott and Monroe.
The gorgeous youngsters are growing up fast, and recently celebrated their first birthday with a spectacular party.
Roc and Roe were treated to a fabulous bash, held by their parents in a luxury hotel suite in Paris, and were pictured surrounded by lavish gifts.
Like many celebrity offspring they have recently been on tour with their mum.
Mariah shared a photo on Twitter of her with her little ones.
The supermum looked chic and elegant in the image, wearing a sleek black dress, peep toe courts and huge dark shades as she carried her precious babies.
Mariah Carey certainly knows a thing or two about show-stopping outfits, and she got it picture-perfect on-stage in Morocco this weekend in a dazzling bejewelled gold minidress.
The singer looked on top form as she strutted her stuff in the frock at the 11th Mawazine International Music Festival.
As well as beads, sequins and jewels, the dress featured a plunging neckline with clasp-control ensuring she didn’t show too much cleavage (for a change).
Mariah accessorised with matching chunky gold jewellery, and even the Swarovski-encrusted microphone was in keeping with the sparkly style.
Festival Mawazine TV has now made available Mariah Carey’s whole Rabat, Morocco concert. Enjoy it below:
MARIAH CAREY’s estranged sister has pleaded with the star to let her see her niece and nephew for the first time.
Alison Carey, who worked as a prostitute to help clothe and feed the singer before she made it big, begged Mariah to get in touch so she can finally meet her daughter Monroe and son Moroccan Scott.
The twins turned one last month but their auntie — who looked the spitting image of her “baby sister” — has never had contact with them.
The sisters used to be close but had a huge falling out in 1994. Mariah and their mother Patricia fought Alison for custody of her seven-year-old son Michael, claiming he was at risk in the care of his drug-addict mother.
Alison, who is HIV positive, admits she has worked as a prostitute on the streets of New York for many years — and adds that she used money from punters to pay for her sister’s food and rent when their family was struggling.
Now she insists she has got her life back on track, has been clean and sober for four months and has just started a job as a housekeeper.
Last night she begged Mariah, 42: “Please just call me.”
Mother-of-four Alison, 50, said: “I want to reach out to my sister and tell her how much I miss her and how proud I am that we are family.”
“We may be apart now, and it has been many years since we last spoke. But to me, despite all the bad times and the arguments, she will always be my baby sister.”
“I still remember when she was a little girl — just as beautiful as she is now.”
“It has been incredible watching Mariah grow and blossom into a successful, independent woman with the world at her feet.”
“I cannot put into words how moved I was to see pictures of my niece and nephew for the first time. I saw photographs of them on the television just after they were born and I saw more when they turned one recently.”
“They are absolutely adorable. And when I look into their eyes I see my sister’s eyes shining right back at me — the eyes I used to stare into when I would hold her as a baby.”
“I am sure Mariah is going to be a fantastic mother and her husband Nick Cannon, who I’ve heard nothing but good things about, will be a great father.”
“I just wish Mariah would let me be her sister again and a proper auntie to her children.”
“I know we have had so many problems over the years, but I want to reach out to her in the hope that we can make peace and mend the wounds that have torn our family apart.”
Mariah, now 42, Alison and their brother Morgan, 51, had a tough childhood growing up in a stormy, dysfunctional household in the predominantly white suburb of Huntington, New York, where they suffered racial abuse because of their mixed ethnicity.
The star’s maternal grandparents moved to America from Ireland. When Patricia started dating their father Alfred Roy, who was of African-American and Venezuelan descent, her family disowned her.
Mariah’s parents divorced when she was three. The future pop star went to stay with her mother — a vocal coach and occasional opera singer — while Alison lived with their father, an aeronautical engineer.
Times were tough for both girls but Alison says her father was a great man who loved her. According to Alison, Mariah suffered emotional turmoil while she was growing up too. She said: “It still hurts me to think about how much pain Mariah was in.”
“Things were not always as stable at home as they should have been.”
“Mariah would sometimes be left on her own for hours when she was just a little girl. It sends shivers of regret down my spine to think how much chaos there was.”
Alison — who inherited her mother’s voice and had her own ambitions to be a star — says the pain of her childhood pushed her into prostitution as a teenager. For Mariah, her ordeal made her determined to make it big in showbiz.
Alison says: “When Mariah did not have food, it was me who came and filled up her fridge. When she did not have clean clothes, I would pay for her laundry.
“Mariah and our mother were so broke once they got kicked out of their apartment. I paid for a new place. I also rented the vintage Rolls-Royce that took Mariah to her first audition aged 16 or 17.”
Mariah and her sister’s first major falling out in 1994 came just as the star released what went on to be the best selling Christmas album ever, Merry Christmas.
As Patricia fought Alison for custody of her son Michael, Alison went on national television and alleged her mum had kidnapped him.
She begged Mariah to take her side but she refused. Mariah’s friends say she has done everything she can over the years to get Alison clean and off the game, but eventually gave up. Her sister counters that Mariah has battled her own demons too.
She said: “I still worry about Mariah, to be honest. After her breakdown in 2001 she had a big falling out with our mother.”
“I’m not sure how close Mariah is to our mother any more, but she is still very defensive of her for some reason.”
Mariah vowed to reconcile with Alison at her father’s deathbed in 2002, as he lay dying from cancer. But Alison said: “She has never met that promise. I last spoke to Mariah four years ago when she called me on New Year’s Eve. But since then I have not been able to speak to her.”
“I reached out to Mariah last year when a doctor told me I had liver cancer and only four months left to live. A relative told me Mariah decided she wanted to reconcile and she would pay for my treatment. But I never heard from her.”
“It turned out to be nothing more than a gallstone. But it would have been nice if my sister had been there for me.”
Fighting back tears, Alison added: “I’ve had my problems over the years but I want to tell Mariah I have been clean and sober for four months now and I am absolutely determined to keep my life on track.”
“I really want our family to be together again, and watch my children playing with hers.”
“If I had a message it would be, ‘Just call me’. ”

Mariah Carey held a lavish celebration for her baby twins’ first birthday.
The singer and husband Nick Cannon showed they were proud parents as they posted party photos on Moroccan and Monroe’s personal website, Dembabies.com, from their first birthday celebration.
The siblings – dubbed Roc and Roe for short – were seen dressed to the nines as they played with various toys including a mini Ferrari, a rocking horse, a miniature white piano and a doll’s house, with Roe even showing an early penchant for bling as she touched her mum’s dazzling diamond necklace.
Mariah dressed in a floor-length gown in a neutral hue for the special occasion on April 30, while Nick – who was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called lupus nephritis in March – wore a white suit.
The married couple kept up their tradition of renewing their wedding vows as they celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary on the same date.
“I have to do it every single year. If you were married to Mariah Carey, you’d want to marry her every year too! I just have to keep doing it to make sure it’s real,” Nick explained.
MARIAH Carey looks magic in a tight purple dress as she attends a fashion bash hosted by her husband Nick Cannon.
The grinning pair made a delightful sight as they arrived at the Project Canvas Charity bash in New York, which showcases a unique new trainer concept.
Posing on the red carpet, Mariah showed off a pair of silver sparkly pumps designed by herself.
She tweeted: “At Nick’s launch for project canvas. The shoes.. Come on.. A winner!”
Project Canvas gives people the option to make their own pair of shoes while encouraging individuality and personality.
The charity’s website says this idea was “founded upon the principal that within every person lies a wealth of creativity.”
“It is a project that set out to empower youth and young adults across the world to believe in themselves.”
“People are inspired by Project C.A.N.V.A.S to treat life as a canvas upon which they have the power to create their own masterpiece.”
Mariah and Nick certainly looked the part for the evening, with Mariah pouring her assets into a curve-revealing frock while Nick wore a white suit.
Earlier in the day Mariah had shared pictures with fans from the first birthday celebrations of their twin babies Moroccan and Monroe, where they showered them with lavish gifts including a toy Ferrari.
They warned fans of their little ones that their first birthday would be a momentous occasion.
And Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon stayed true to their word yesterday as their children enjoyed a lavish party in Paris.
Twins Moroccan and Monroe celebrated turning one in the French capital city with a get together most parents couldn’t even afford to dream of for their toddlers.
The singer, 42, and her television and radio presenter husband, 31, held a luxury bash inside Plaza Athenee decking out the kids – known affectionately as ‘dem babies’ – in angelic outfits.
While their little girl, Monroe donned a silky white dress with floral pattern detail and a bow in her hair, their son Monroe channeled his father’s attire.
Despite his young age the boy was already looking handsome as he wore a smart ivory suit just like his daddy.
In a snap released by their star parents, both tots looked well behaved at the gathering as they were toted around
The set-up seemed to be an extravagance, with blue and pink star-shaped balloons in the background and wine glasses on the tables of the hotel suite.
Plastic cups would be more appropriate at a get-together for children but it was only the best treatment for Carey and Cannon’s offspring.
Custom-made French pastries, plenty of toys and confetti were present on Sunday, according to PEOPLE.
It’s not entirely a surprise that they went all out for precious duo. Nick told the publication last month that they planning something big.
He said: ‘We’re going away. We’re taking a break. It’s going to be exciting. We’re doing something special and something unique.’
The two made their trip to Europe a double celebration as the event also fell on their April 30 anniversary.
The couple renewed their vows on Friday for the fourth time in the City of Love, heading for the Eiffel Tower and donning white again to do so.
Mariah Carey has hinted that she is back in the studio and recording new material with a variety of other stars.
Speaking at an end-of-ski-season festival in the Austrian resort of Ischgl, she told reporters: “It’s very difficult for me to balance it all but I’m working on a couple of songs right now with certain people and I want to keep certain things a secret but I’m really excited.
“I couldn’t be more excited about what I’m doing.”
The Austrian performance also took place on Mariah and her husband Nick’s fourth wedding anniversary and the first birthday of her twins, Moroccan and Monroe.
SINGER Mariah Carey gets a smacker from husband Nick Cannon after the pair renewed their wedding vows for the fourth time yesterday. The couple looked very much in love after the ceremony in the early hours at the top of the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
Mariah, 42, wearing a £200,000 diamond necklace, an anniversary present from her husband, shone in a white fishtail gown while TV presenter Nick, 31, donned a matching suit.
Publicist Cindi Berger said the couple, who married in April 2008, enjoyed an “intimate ceremony after a romantic dinner at the beautiful Jules Verne restaurant”.
Mariah, who gave birth to twins Moroccan and Monroe last April, took to Twitter to share her excitement with fans. “Tonight was an incredible night,” she wrote.
