"When Do The Bells Ring For Me" Out Today!

"When Do The Bells Ring For Me," Mariah's timeless duet with timeless singer Tony Bennett, is now available! The pairing of two music legends from two generations is being celebrated:

"When Do The Bells Ring For Me" is... a light, romantic ballad which perfectly caters to both Mariah and Tony's vocal strengths... We can assume that the light and airy tone we get on this record was a conscious effort to match Tony's classic croon... Mariah sounds like a classically trained Broadway vocalist on the track." -MTV

Mariah Carey's part on "When Do the Bells Ring For Me" should make the new mother of twins want to record her own album of standards and get away from hip-hop for good. -Showbiz 411

"She's just so talented... During the session, recorded when she was close to giving birth to a set of twins, I kept kidding her that our record was more than just a duet because I was actually recording with three people! And let me just say that she knocked that performance right out of ballpark. She was sensational." -Tony Bennett

First Moroccan Baby Pic on Twitter!

Mariah Carey twins photos have been in hot demand, but so far, we’ve just seen little girl Monroe’s hand in the camera, without a glimpse of much else.

Now Mariah Carey’s husband, Nick Cannon has tweeted the first baby pic of little Moroccan.

But don’t get too excited… it’s just his cute baby hand and a glimpse of jammies!

Nick Cannon took to Twitter to write: “Watching the fight with my family and my son is so focused! ROCKY CANNON future champ!”

Nick later tweeted Roc’s hand in a fist: “That’s a mean right!”

Mariah Carey retweeted the photo this morning for her adoring fans.

Mariah Carey, diet and exercise to lose weight

Mariah Carey has always displayed her voluptuous curves, and has often been criticized for the extra pounds. It did not help her pregnancy, which ended April 30 with the joy of the birth of her twins Moroccan and Monroe. Since then, Mariah Carey is working hard to lose weight.

The birth of a child is often a time of joy for young mothers, which results quickly in the hard to lose extra pounds due to the pregnancy. This is what the diva is currently enduring, after struggling for several years with the extra pounds, even though she displayed a perfect line at the beginning of her musical career in the 90s.

In order to be on top for her return on the red carpet on September 21, to mark the launch of the new season of the X Factor show, she’s exercising and controls her diet to get her old shape back. She’s doing a lot of swimming and water aerobics to tone up.

A source close to the star said: “She works a minimum of two hours a day, seven days a week, and follows a Spartan regime, which excludes sugar, white flour and most meats. It makes her grumpy, but it leaves nothing to chance”.

Nick Cannon, her husband, has disclosed that the birth of their twins was “over the top”, with perfect lighting, her “Fantasy” 1995 live performance as a music background, and applause.

Nick was the production manager of the show, the D.J. and the cameraman. The “Fantasy” live performance from Madison Square Garden was played so the twins could come out on a round of applause.
