Mariah Carey Sparked a Buzz With Her Thanksgiving Video

Mariah Carey's Thanksgiving kitchen clip stirred conversation with its oversized sparkle and a choice of accessories that left fans both amused and baffled.

Thanksgiving took a diva-drenched turn when Mariah Carey posted a jaw-dropping cooking clip to Instagram — but it wasn't her "anointed greens" that had tongues wagging. It was the outfit, the accessories, and, most of all, the sheer audacity.

Mariah's Kitchen Couture Sparks Holiday Mayhem

The Grammy-winning icon welcomed fans into her kitchen with all the flair of a red carpet entrance. Clad in a white "Miss Dior" sweater, her cascading blonde locks down, and hands clad in black latex gloves, Carey looked more ready to host the Met Gala than cook a holiday side dish.

But all eyes were locked on the sparkling butterfly-shaped diamond ring — boldly worn over the gloves. The video kicked off with Carey practically singing her way into the greens prep.

"We're making some greens, and I'm very excited about it because it's Thanksgiving!" she gushed before unleashing a dramatic "Woo!" and theatrically dumping leafy greens into a steamer. "All of it," she declared, her voice in full diva vibrato.

Throughout the minute-long clip, Carey stayed committed to the gloves — and unapologetically so. "Yes, I'm wearing gloves. Okay? That's what I like," she said firmly, holding her hands above the pan with all the poise of a Broadway star mid-monologue.

The Ring That Stole Thanksgiving

Carey didn't even need to mention the glittering butterfly-shaped ring — it stole the show on its own. Every flick of her wrist, every stir of the pan, and every sprinkle of seasoning sent blinding sparkle across the screen.

At one point, she couldn't resist acknowledging it: "You like my ring?" she asked the camera, flashing the massive gem. A stunned voice offscreen replied, "Wait a second. On top of the rubber glove?" as the camera zoomed in on her diamond-encrusted digits clutching a garlic container.

The luxury bling resembled the Van Cleef & Arpels Flying Butterfly ring — a white gold piece worth a staggering $41,700, encrusted with over three carats of diamonds.

Commenters Left Gasping, Gagging, and Slightly Grossed Out

The clip ended with Carey blowing a kiss — still gloved, still sparkling — to the camera. But the reactions online were mixed, to say the least.

"Yassssss. But you absolutely kill me with the gloves and your ring on top. 😂😂🦋" wrote one amused fan. Another chimed in, "The ring on the glove. Legendary."

Yet others couldn't move past one major kitchen no-no: her loose, flowing hair. "Get your hair tied back," one unimpressed commenter scolded. Another took it further, writing, "Where's the hairnet? I am not eating anything because it will have her hair in it! 😂"

And with daughter Monroe recently making headlines, it's clear the Carey household isn't just cooking food this holiday season — they're cooking up headlines.

As we previously reported, Monroe Cannon, Mariah's daughter with Nick Cannon, recently stunned the public with her beauty in recent photos she shared on Instagram.

Aside from her twin brother, Moroccan Cannon, Monroe has many half-siblings fathered by Nick, including one who tragically passed away a few years ago.

Mariah Carey's Mini-Me Stuns in New Selfies

Monroe's new Instagram carousel was short on words but packed with presence. In a series of glowing snapshots, the 14-year-old posed confidently in a bold red graphic tee layered over a long-sleeved black shirt — a styling choice that struck a balance between playful and edgy.

Her signature curls framed her face as she worked the camera from different angles, puckering her lips in one shot and flashing a wink and cheekily poking out her tongue in others.

In a short boomerang nestled among the photos, Monroe turned up the charm, going from hands-on-hips to a spirited double thumbs-up, radiating self-assurance with a touch of humor.

Her post, captioned simply, "🎬🎸," seemed to nod subtly at both performance and artistry, fitting for the daughter of two entertainers.

'OMG She Looks like Mariah': The Internet Explodes with Resemblance Remarks

The reactions in the comment section of the post rolled in quickly, with fans and followers alike marveling at Monroe's striking features — many unable to ignore just how much she channels her superstar mom. "OMG SHE LOOKS LIKE MARIAH WHEN SHE FIRST CAME OUT!!! So pretty!!" gushed one admirer.

Similarly, another fan swooned, "Girl 😍you got beauty like MaMa diva Mariah ❤️ [sic]," while someone else simply declared "the prettiest cannon [sic]."

The mother-daughter resemblance was a recurring theme, with yet another supporter pointing out, "You look just like your mum, you have the same curls 😍." Meanwhile, a fellow fan admired her standout features, writing, "Adore the hair and eyebrows. Those eyebrows are divine ✨."

The Teen's Blunt Family Tree Clarification Sets Internet Ablaze

Aside from the compliments, one follower took a more personal tone, referencing Monroe's recent commentary about her family dynamic, "Roe I complete agree with what you said about your siblings. Don't feel bad about having your own opinions [sic]."

Amid the wave of admiration, this aforementioned comment from a netizen voicing their agreement with a statement Monroe had previously made about her siblings stood out.

Earlier this month (November 2025), Monroe addressed the curiosity surrounding her family tree in a since-expired Instagram Story that stirred up considerable attention online.

She made an abundantly clear distinction between her twin brother, Moroccan, and her other siblings. The teen emphasized that she has "ONE brother" — a reference to Moroccan — while clarifying that the other kids on her father's side are half-siblings who are significantly younger than she is.

The post appeared to be her way of setting the record straight — calmly, but firmly. Following Monroe's statement, social media lit up. Many netizens interpreted her words as both revealing and reflective of a broader family dynamic.

"All I saw was: 'I have ONE brother. My daddy got a lot of kids tho [sic].' 🥴🥴😭," penned one commenter, while another offered a more pointed take, "This translates to 'I don't have a relationship with my siblings bc my dad has 30 kids and can't be in multiple places at once.' 🙄 being [sic] rich doesn't mean you can be present! Poor babies."

Others rallied behind Monroe, voicing their support for her honesty. "She's not wrong though [sic]. Also shows that his other children are not close to each other at all," observed one person.

Another defended the teen's right to speak her truth, stating, "Leave her alone. She is a child and it's not her responsibility to claim them. She told no lie. They are her half siblings. That's not her problem that her father had all those children [sic]."

Twelve Children. Six Mothers. One Complicated Legacy.

Monroe's candid take on her family dynamics resonated with many — especially those who've followed the ever-expanding Cannon family tree. Her words offered a rare glimpse into what life might feel like from the perspective of one of Nick's oldest children, a position that comes with both visibility and complexity.

Nick, known for his high-profile relationships and prolific parenting, shares a total of 12 children with six different women.

In addition to twins Monroe and Moroccan, whom he shares with ex-wife Mariah, he is also father to sons Rise Messiah and Golden Sagon Cannon, as well as daughter Powerful Queen Cannon, all with model Brittany Bell. With Abby De La Rosa, he welcomed daughter Beautiful Zeppelin Cannon and twins Zion and Zillion Cannon.

He also shares son Legendary Love Cannon with Bre Tiesi and daughter Onyx Ice Cole with former "Price Is Right" model LaNisha Cole.

Two of his children — Zen Cannon, who passed away at just five months old, and his youngest, Halo Cannon — were born to model Alyssa Scott. The wide age gaps and diverse maternal households have often drawn public scrutiny.

'My Heart Is Shattered': Zen Cannon's Death and His Father's Pain

Despite the complexities of his family life, Nick has often emphasized that his love for his children runs deep — a sentiment that was heartbreakingly evident following the loss of his son, Zen, in 2021. On December 5 of that year, Zen passed away in the arms of both his parents.

"I see it as a blessing that I got to be there. Alyssa says, 'I think he was just waiting for you.' My heart is shattered. I wish I could have done more, spent more time with him, taken more pictures," Nick reflected.

The television host first opened up about the tragedy two days later on his daytime show, "Nick Cannon," where he reflected on the fleeting but meaningful time he had with his son.

"We had a short time with a true angel," he said, sharing his regrets about the time they didn't get and the moments he wished he could've prolonged. "I wish I could have hugged him longer," the bereaved father added.

Monroe Cannon: The Daughter Who Grounds Her Dad

Through all the heartbreak, one person played an important supportive role — Monroe. He has often credited his daughter for helping him remain centered through emotional storms.

"She's probably my best therapist," he once revealed. "She keeps me in check. She's so pure and so honest." Despite being just ten years old at the time, Monroe's emotional wisdom left a lasting mark on her father.

While public discourse has often focused on Nick's unconventional lifestyle and the sheer size of his family, he remains steadfast in his own perspective. "I'm a father, first and foremost," he said, while openly acknowledging the guilt he carries for not having enough time to go around.

Work, he admitted, is his coping mechanism — but no amount of success can replace the irreplaceable. "One thing no [sic] matter how much money I generate, one thing I can't generate is time," he admitted. "It's not about quantity, it's about quality."

The media mogul continued, "And it's really just having quality moments with my children, quality moments with my family. Had a lot of quality moments with Zen in his short time here. I always say time is a manmade thing, but love and energy is [sic] a godsend."

Zen's passing left a void that words can't fill, but it also illuminated the profound connections Nick shares with his children — and the grounding presence Monroe continues to be within a family dynamic that, while unconventional, is bound together by love and loss alike.
