Mariah Carey had a very “mom” moment that the internet couldn’t get enough of when she accidentally wandered into her 13-year-old son’s Twitch livestream, only to be told, point-blank, to leave. The pop star popped into the room while her son Moroccan Cannon (often called “Rocky”) was mid-stream, webcam on, chatting and gaming with friends, turning an ordinary session into instant viral content.
According to coverage of the clip, Moroccan had been live for only a short time when background chatter starts and Carey appears on camera, with Moroccan trying to stay composed while also clearly panicking at being “caught” streaming with his famous mom in the frame. His twin sister Monroe also joins the interruption, and the moment escalates into classic teen embarrassment as viewers and his friends react excitedly.
The punchline, what made the clip travel, was Moroccan’s mix of affection and desperation. He repeatedly tries to usher them out, at one point telling Carey, “Love you. Get out of my room!” while attempting to keep the stream moving. Carey, for her part, plays it sweet and casual, greeting people and chatting briefly before letting her son reclaim his space.
Afterward, Moroccan reportedly circled back with viewers to clarify he wasn’t trying to be disrespectful, just mortified in the way only a teenager can be when a parent appears on-camera in front of friends. The whole thing landed as a light, relatable snapshot of Carey’s family dynamic with the twins she shares with Nick Cannon, equal parts wholesome and painfully on-brand for a kid trying to stream in peace.
