Who is Monroe Cannon?

Monroe Cannon Carey was born under the zodiac sign of Taurus on 30 April 2011, in Santa Monica, California USA; she holds American nationality and her ethnicity is of mixed Irish, Venezuelan, and African-American descent. She – and her twin brother Moroccan – are perhaps only known as the daughter and son of Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey; Monroe got her name from her mother’s favorite actress Marylin Monroe, and her brother got his name because of the room where Nick proposed to Mariah was decorated in the Moroccan style.

Monroe is 10 years old, and is attending an elementary school; she is also known as a voice actor, having voiced the character Michelle in the 2017 animated movie “All I Want for Christmas Is You”. Monroe had already made an appearance in her mother’s show “Mariah’s World” in 2016.

Although she lives with her mother and brother, she has a special bond with her father, but sometimes Mariah thinks that he exaggerates with his gifts – for the twin’s tenth birthday he bought them IPads, even though Mariah said that they were too young to have it.

Monroe has curly brown hair and brown eyes, weighs around 60lbs (28kgs) and is 3ft 9ins (1.2m) tall.
