Mariah Carey is "obsessed" with Olivia Rodrigo
Updated | By Tamlyn Canham
Mariah Carey is adding the 'Mom of the Year' award to her mantelpiece after taking her children to see one of their favourite artists.
Mariah Carey and her children are big Olivia Rodrigo fans!
The 55-year-old and her twins, Monroe 'Roe' Cannon and Moroccan 'Roc' Cannon, were spotted backstage at one of the 'Vampire' singer's shows.
"We are OBSESSED with @oliviarodrigo," Mariah wrote on Instagram.
The 'Honey' singer's daughter Roe also shared clips from their fun night out. The videos show the 13-year-old singing along to Olivia's songs and freaking out when she waved at her.
"This is so late but last Tuesday was the best night of my life. WHATT like @oliviarodrigo I love u so much I had the time of my life. It was a dream fr (I need to be quiet when i recordddd)," Roe wrote.

Roe also received a signed t-shirt from Olivia. The teen's obsession with the singer knows no bounds.
Her Instagram bio reads: "I love @oliviarodrigo."
Mariah's fans - and no doubt her daughter - hope she will collaborate with Olivia on a song in the future.
Interestingly, they both have a song called, 'Obsessed'.
Olivia showed Mariah some love during an interview with WIRED in September last year. She was asked if she is a good singer.
"I hope so. I'm no Mariah Carey or anything, but I like to think that I can convey some emotion in my voice, and that's what counts," she said.

Mariah Carey Children
Mariah shares her two children with media personality Nick Cannon. Roc and Roe are Mariah's only two children.
Nick, however, has a total of 12! He welcomed 10 more children after their 2016 divorce.

Nick still has a soft spot for his ex-wife, revealing in an interview that she saved his life when he was diagnosed with lupus in 2012.
“She was my rock, man. She went hard. To be honest, I probably wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for how hard she went, you know, with the doctors, with me, my stubbornness. She was the perfect helpmate, the perfect matriarch, the perfect mom, the perfect wife in those scenarios," he told Steven Bartlett on 'The Diary Of A CEO' podcast in 2023.
However, Mariah has made it clear that she has no desire to spin the block!
