Mariah Carey's Monroe: Is a Musical Future in the Family?
The Queen of Christmas' Secret: Mariah Carey's Daughter Monroe May be Launching a Music Career!
In a shocking twist that has left fans and media outlets buzzing, the one and only Mariah Carey, known as the 'Queen of Christmas', may have just dished out some explosive news about her 14-year-old daughter Monroe. Sources close to the family reveal that Monroe is not just content with performing alongside her mother on stage - she's actually got her eyes set on a music career all her own!
The singer-songwriter extraordinaire, 56, spilled the tea during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she shared that her daughter has been bitten by the music bug. "My daughter's into music, and she likes music," Mariah confessed to the charismatic host, 51. But when asked if Monroe is ready to take the leap and launch a solo career, Mariah coyly hinted, "I'm trying to get her to do her own thing. I think she wants to. So possibly."
Monroe, who has already made headlines for her adorable performances alongside her mother on TikTok and at high-profile concerts like The Hollywood Bowl, seems to have the musical gene running deep in her veins. As fans of the Carey family know all too well, Mariah's twins Moroccan and Monroe are actually identical twins, born to Mariah and her ex-husband Nick Cannon back in 2011.
But what really sets tongues wagging is that Monroe has already been showcasing her singing chops - both on stage and off! Last year, she joined her mother for a heartwarming duet of Jesus Born On This Day during the 'Merry Christmas One And All' concert at Madison Square Garden. And let's be real, who can forget the adorable moment when Kim Kardashian captured a video of Mariah and Monroe performing together at the same event?
But here's the thing: despite her obvious talent, Mariah has always maintained that she won't force her children into the entertainment industry if they don't want to pursue it. "As they grow up and decide what to do with their lives, it’s really nice for me to be able to see them performing onstage," Mariah gushed to People in 2023. "I even like watching them getting ready, preparing to perform." And in a separate interview with W Magazine, she emphasized that she wants her kids to know they have the freedom to choose their own path: "I never say, 'You guys gotta do this,' you know? It’s whatever they want to do and they’re rehearsing for it and going for it and really working hard, so that’s impressive to me."
Of course, we can't help but wonder if Monroe's big break is on the horizon. After all, her brother Moroccan has already made appearances in his mother's music videos - including a cameo role in Fall In Love At Christmas back in 2021! And speaking of musical collaborations, did you know that Mariah has recently released a new single called Play This Song, featuring none other than the talented Anderson Paak?
It looks like we may be witnessing the rise of a new music sensation - and this time, it's not just about mom passing down her talents to the next generation. Stay tuned for more updates on Monroe's budding music career, folks!
