Mariah Carey often sparks a strong reaction from her army of devoted fans with her life updates on social media. However, her recent photos alongside her teenage twins, Moroccan and Monroe, left her dedicated followers sufficiently stunned.
The 'Heartbreaker' singer was celebrating the Easter holiday season with her twins, who will turn 14 on April 30, whom she shares with her ex Nick Cannon, but fans couldn't help but notice that Mariah had swerved her heels in favor of flats.
Many were astonished to see the superstar singer and self-confessed diva wearing flat slippers over her usual towering platform heels.
"Mariah in flat slippers?! I'm shook," said one.

Mariah, 56, shared some photos of her standing next to an Easter bunny mascot while her daughter and son were standing on the other side holding their egg baskets after a fun-filled day of activities.

"The greatest gift of being a mom is getting your teenage kids to participate in your Easter hijinks!" she captioned the sweet post, prompting fans to share their awe at how tall they are.
"Teenagers? Jesus Christ…how old am I?," joked one follower. Another echoed this sentiment, writing: "Wow they grew overnight seems like…beautiful."
A third was equally shocked as they put: "Omg when did they become so big?" while a fourth marveled at how Roe is going to overtake her mom's height soon enough.

She's won countless awards and is often thought of as one of the great vocalists of modern pop music, but Mariah's proudest achievement is undoubtedly her babies.
Mariah and Nick, who were married between 2008 and 2016, welcomed their twins in 2011, and despite no longer being a couple, they co-parent amicably for the sake of Moroccan and Monroe.

On co-parenting with her ex, she explained candidly: "I think Nick and I have done pretty well in co-parenting, staying friends with each other so that we can talk.
"It's hard, but I try to keep them grounded so they don't think everything is just handed to them."
