Mariah Carey makes ‘Touch My Body’ TikTok with her twins

Carey's twins, Monroe and Moroccan, join her for the TikTok dance challenge.

Mariah Carey jumped on her own bandwagon, joining a TikTok dance challenge using her song “Touch My Body.” In a video clip, her twins, Monroe and Moroccan, make cameo appearances.

On July 19, Carey posted a video on her Instagram page with the caption, “Why not? Jumping on the trend of my own song lol.” Dressed in an all-denim outfit, the five-time Grammy Award winner is being tended to by a make-up artist and hairdresser. 

As the song plays, the make-up artist and hairdresser begins to dance to the music while Moroccan and Monroe come into the frame and join the fun.

Meanwhile, Carey is lip-syncing to her song while waving herself with a fan as her kids pop in and out of frame.

Although this is the first time Carey posted a video for the TikTok challenge, it wasn’t the first for the twins. Monroe and Moroccan previously did a “Touch My Body” dance challenge video dancing next to their father, Carey’s ex-husband and “Masked Singer” host Nick Cannon.

“Touch My Body” reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 upon its 2008 release from the “E=MC²” album.

“Touch My Body” helped Carey reach 18 No. 1 singles on that chart, surpassing Elvis Presley. Since then, her 1994 hit, “All I Want For Christmas is You,” reentered the charts at No. 1 in 2019, bringing her 19 total Billboard Hot 100 chart toppers, only one behind The Beatles.
