Mariah Carey brought her 4-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe Cannon (better known as Dem Babies), along as she accepted her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on Wednesday.

This was an educational experience for all, because we learned that though Moroccan and Monroe are the children of a true diva, they are still children — and, 100 percent, do not care that Mariah Carey is their mother. To them, she’s simply Mom.

And they were really interested in the star she received.

He didn’t care there was a photo op going on.

But Mariah finally got her shot.

Fin.
