Mariah Carey, a global sensation with a fortune estimated at $350 million, seamlessly transitions from her superstar persona to the everyday role of ‘mom’ at home, occasionally causing a bit of embarrassment for her kids.

In a recent display of her motherly side, the renowned “We Belong Together” singer, now 56, played the quintessential parent by entering her 14-year-old son’s room during one of his Twitch livestreams. This impromptu visit happened on a Friday, as her son, Moroccan—affectionately known as Rocky—was interacting with friends and fans online.

Rocky, undeterred by the unexpected cameo, warmly invited Carey into his digital realm, urging her to greet his audience. “My mom’s here, do you want to say hi?” he asked, as Carey, who has been in the spotlight recently with plans to commemorate the 25th anniversary of her 2001 film “Glitter” and its soundtrack, obliged.

From the shadows of the dimly lit room, Carey’s voice resonated, eager to engage. “Of course I want to say hi,” she responded, embracing the chance to connect.

However, Rocky exhibited a moment of hesitation, playfully cautioning, “Wait, wait, wait, wait, are you sure? I’m on stream in front of all these people.” The interaction highlighted the delightful intersection of celebrity life and the universal experiences of parenting.

‘Wait, wait, wait, wait, are you sure?’ Rocky said. ‘I’m on stream in front of all these people.’

‘Should I be concerned?’ Carey responded as she stepped into camera range.

Carey could be seen hovering next to her son wearing what looked like a bathrobe with her long hair falling in perfect waves on either side of her head.

‘Listen, I want them to know I love them,’ she said while leaning over Rocky’s shoulder.

‘All right, that’s very sweet mom,’ Rocky told her, adding that he needed to ‘get back to streaming. I love you, Mama. Have a good night.’

The messages were coming in faster than Rocky could talk with one writing, ‘Hi, ms carey’ and another gushing, ‘Omg, I love you.’

This isn’t the first time Carey has crashed Rocky’s livestream party.

Back in April 2025, she walked into his session but her son’s reaction was quite different. At first, he invited Carey in but then he got flustered when twin sister Monroe started wandering around his room.

Rocky was either embarrassed or distracted or both.

‘Y’all need to get out now, everybody get out,’ he said, waving them away.

But Carey stuck around, telling Rocky’s friends, ‘Hi guys, I love you.’

Rocky asked his family members to get out again, adding, ‘please.’

When Carey and Monroe – affectionately called Roe by her mom – didn’t leave, he told them more emphatically, ‘Get out of my room!’

Rocky and Monroe are Carey’s two children with ex-husband Nick Cannon, who has 10 other children with five other women.

Carey’s latest surprise appearance on her son’s livestream comes in the wake of plans to celebrate Glitter as the film and accompanying soundtrack mark their 25-year anniversary.

Speaking to Variety, the entertainer said, ‘Plans for a deluxe and a reissue, or maybe just one, I don’t know. We’re getting on top of it. I’m excited about it.’

The music legend admitted she once loathed Glitter ‘because it was a disastrous flop.’

‘I used to hate it. I used to be so like, why did I do that? And then, you know, it became something that I really loved and it just sort of took on its own thing,’ Carey said, adding, ‘It was just a tough time for me.’

But over the years Glitter has grown a devoted fanbase of people who love the album for its music despite the movie’s dismal reception.

The fans see it as an underrated piece of Carey’s work and they launched a successful #JusticeForGlitter campaign in 2018 that drove the album to No. 1 on iTunes.

Carey, who was mocked for using a teleprompter to phonetically spell out Italian lyrics during her Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony performance, thinks remastering some of her old music videos including Don’t Stop (Funkin’ 4 Jamaica) would be great to include in the celebration.
