Despite COVID-19 dashing her plans for a massive and lavish birthday party for her twins, Mariah Carey made sure Monroe and Moroccan celebrated their 9th birthday in style with a virtual dance party with all their friends.

"Happy Birthday Roc & Roe!!!!," Carey shouted out on Thursday. "My babies are 9, love you so much."

Social distancing was no issue for the five-time Grammy winner, who got her hands on a massive projector that showed off everyone joining in on a video chat to celebrate alongside Roc and Monroe.

Carey even decorated the room with balloons, a Roblox-themed table full of snacks and another one for the twins to sit at in front of their friends.

She also grabbed a life-sized giraffe plush for the event. And, to go one step beyond to make her kids feel special, she made them special T-shirts and hats that read "Roc & Roe's Virtual Birthday!"

The "Always Be My Baby" singer made herself a shirt to match so all three could coordinate their outfits, complete with identical black pants. The twins appeared to love the party their mom threw them, as seen by the wide smiles the two flash in both photos.
