Pregnancy announcement 'restores' Carey's faith in humanity

Mariah Carey's faith in humanity has been "restored" thanks to the good wishes of the general public about her pregnancy.

Mariah Carey's faith in humanity has been "restored" thanks to the good wishes of the general public about her pregnancy.

The 'Hero' hitmaker - who is expecting twins with TV presenter Nick Cannon - had been reluctant to announce her happy news but is glad she received a positive response from fans.

She said: "Obviously I'm very thankful for this moment. Since Nick and I made our announcement, people have been very congratulatory.

"We didn't really want to talk about this yet, but I'm in the public eye and really didn't have a choice.

"So I'm just thankful I can go through this time and feel a lot of warmth. It's restored my faith in people a bit."

Nick revealed the pair are expecting twins earlier this month, joking he would probably get "yelled" at for letting the information go public, despite weeks of speculation.

He said: "In order for my wife and I to have our life, we need to be up front and I need to be able to share things with you and be real.

"I didn't even tell my wife I was gonna do this. I'm probably gonna get yelled at for not getting permission... We are having twins."
