Mariah Carey’s daughter Monroe likes to sing.
The ‘Hero’ hitmaker – who has four-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, with ex-husband Nick Cannon – says her little girl is always singing and can even imitate her own signature vocals.
However, while she clearly sees Monroe has a talent and a "good ear" for music she isn’t going to try and push her to have a career as a pop star.
She said: "She was singing last night with her friend. I can tell she has a really good ear – she can mimic what I can do. But she’s only four and a half. And it’s not fair for me to push it on her, so I am allowing her to be who she is. At the moment, she would rather be silly with it."
Meanwhile, Mariah – who is currently on the UK leg of her ‘Sweet Sweet Fantasy’ world tour – said Monroe is fully aware that she has been named after the late Hollywood icon although, she hasn’t seen any of her movies yet because she’s not the right age to appreciate them yet.
The 45-year-old star – who is engaged to billionaire James Packer – told The Sunday Times newspaper: "She knows she is named after Marilyn [Monroe] and she can recognise her in pictures, but I haven’t shown her the movies yet. They are into Disney and Halloween."
