It looks like a drive for entertaining hasn’t fallen far the tree! Mariah Carey‘s nine-year-old son, Moroccan, is quickly becoming a bit of a TikTok star, and in a new clip from his August 5 post, he tried nearly everything to coax his mom onto the social media site! “Get my mom to react? Of course I can do that,” Moroccan said to the camera as he darted upstairs.
Upon finding his mom in another room, likely busy being one of the world’s most talented singers, Moroccan sweetly asked, “can you say ‘hi’ to TikTok?” Mariah, quite perplexed by the request, asked her son in return, “who on TikTok.” A fair question if we’ve ever heard! “My fan, she was like, ‘can you get your mom to react?'” Moroccan told his Grammy-winning mom, 50. Exasperated, Mariah simply said, “tell her I’m on a business call.” And that was the end of that…almost!
“Well my mom is not ready to look…on TikTok, and plus she’s on a business call,” he said, adding a cheeky reaction to the video, too! As it would happen, Moroccan’s fans might not have been happy with his content, because his next clip really put his followers in their place. “First of all you don’t need to worry about me and second of all my mom wouldn’t do that,” he addressed in a second clip. “My life is none of your business, no offense, I’m just saying.” What a powerful statement from the youngster!
Mariah should definitely be proud of her son for respecting when his mom doesn’t want to be on camera, especially considering that the stunning singer boasts a major following. The “We Belong Together” songstress and her kids — including Moroccan’s twin sister, Monroe — are often photographed out and about or at major events! Sometimes, the trio will appear with Mariah’s ex and her kids’ father, Nick Cannon. But growing up in the spotlight hasn’t affected Moroccan or Monroe in the slightest!“They are very well rounded, kind kids and both are quiet and shy a lot of the time,” a source shared EXCLUSIVELY with HollywoodLife in February 2020. “They’re also very studious and they both get really good grades. They are actually pretty strict parents and keep them on a very strict schedule. They’re very normal kids.” And just like any average youngster, Moroccan is keeping the content going on TikTok! We cannot wait to see more!
