Big mama Mariah is in full bloom

 

 

Intimate shoot ... Mariah Carey

HEAVILY pregnant MARIAH CAREY does a DEMI MOORE - by showing off her whopping baby bump on the front cover of a magazine.

The songbird, who is expecting twins, is now EIGHT months gone.
And she is expected to give birth to her first children - a boy and a girl - within the next few week.
Late last month the singer had a scare and was rushed to hospital after experiencing contractions, but was released later the same day.

Ready to pop ... Demi Moore

She had to delay the nude shoot for an American magazine while she sought emergency treatment. She explained: "The babies were kicking almost the entire time; It was unbelievable, especially the girl.
"Clearly she's a diva in training.
"We didn't start shooting until 1:30am because I was in the hospital from the night before until the day of the shoot with contractions five minutes apart."
Carey - who wed actor husband NICK CANNON in 2008, confessed to feeling nervous about taking part in a such an intimate naked shoot, which has clear parallels to Moore's celebrated 1991 Vanity Fair cover.

Expectant parents ... Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon

She added: "I was feeling very vulnerable about taking pictures at all right now, but then I didn't want to miss the opportunity to document this once-in-a lifetime experience. "My ultimate goal was to share this incredibly personal moment with my true fans."
