Queen diva Mariah Carey says that her “47-week” pregnancy with twins Moroccan and Monroe was extremely difficult. According to Mariah, she was basically knocked up for a year, but I digress.

Mrs. Nick Cannon appeared on HSN last night. It was her very first public appearance since giving birth. Carey, 41, and Nick, 30, had their twins on April 30, which is the couple’s third wedding anniversary.

“I was so uncomfortable. I’m kind of proud of myself. I really am — sorry, pregnant with twins is different than anything!”

Carey is convinced that the drama is two fold when you have two buns in the oven.

“[People] were always saying to me, ‘Oh, but it’s all worth it!’ Yeah, but it’s easy to say when you’re not the one whose feet are this big! It turned into like a really difficult time.”

Mariah said that her body went through “so much” because you have to keep twins in “for as long as possible.” She added, “It’s a sacrifice you make for them. Literally I was like, 47-weeks pregnant. And anybody pregnant right now, there’s push gifts here. Tell your baby-father.”

I can appreciate that Mimi’s being real. Pregnancy and child birth is easy for some and more difficult for others, especially the headcases that refuse to have an epidural yet complain about the pain! It’s nice to know that Mariah hasn’t sold her kids out yet. We still don’t even know what they look like! I think she’s going to be an amazing mother.
