Mariah Carey, 51, styles mini-me daughter Monroe, 10, to look like the young version of herself from the 1990 music video Someday as the child makes modeling debut: 'It's about empowering kids'
Mariah Carey's daughter Monroe Cannon was the spitting image of her superstar mother in her first-ever modeling gig for OshKosh B'gosh.
While participating in the back-to-school campaign, Today is Someday, the 10-year-old portrayed a young version of her mom from the 1990 music video Someday.
'As a little girl, I was determined to realize my dreams. Now as a mother, it brings me so much joy to see my children visualize and develop the dreams they hold in their own hearts,' Carey, 51, said in a statement.
