Mariah Carey Welcomes the Twins!
Singer Mariah Carey and her husband, Nick Cannon, have become parents on their third anniversary! Carey gave birth to her twins Saturday, a girl and a boy, at an undisclosed L.A. hospital, "Extra" has confirmed.
Carey's representative said the baby girl was born first, weighing 5 pounds, 3 ounces, and was 18 inches tall; her brother was next, at 5 pounds 6 ounces, and was 19 inches tall.
The rep also said Carey was calm, but Cannon was so nervous he went the wrong department at the hospital. They listened to Carey's song "We Belong Together" after the children were born.
Mariah Carey's Twitter account said. "Congratulations! Mariah & Nick celebrate their fourth anniversary by becoming parents to a baby girl & boy. More @ https://mariah.is/mlSnAj"
