Concertgoers at Mariah Carey's show at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto were in for a special treat Friday night when she brought her 11-year-old daughter, Monroe, to the stage.
In video posted by a fan on YouTube, Carey introduced Monroe -- twin sister of Moroccan, both of whom Carey shares with former husband Nick Cannon -- to the crowd, calling her kids "the greatest gift."
"This is my baby girl, here," Carey gushed. "Eleven years ago, I got the greatest gift. You know what, I don’t have birthdays, but the birthing day was the greatest gift ever, when I had my twins Roc and Roe [Moroccan and Monroe], and once again I’d like to introduce you to my daughter, Monroe.", dressed in sparkly white dresses and tiaras as they sat on a set that included Christmas trees, presents and toy soldiers.
"This is our first duet," Carey told the sold-out crowd before setting up the song."Alright, this is a beautiful, beautiful hymn called 'Away in a Manger.' We’ve been working on this one for a minute." The pair then belted out the 19th-century carol to the excitement of the audience, who were thrilled to see the 11-year-old show off her vocal range, much like her iconic mother.Friday's show marked Carey's first post-COVID tour including two shows in Toronto, with Carey performing at New York City's Madison Square Garden Dec. 13 and 16.
