Friday was one sweet day when Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon finally let the world see their twin six-month-old bundles of joy on 20/20.

Moroccan and Monroe made their primetime debut when their beaming parents introduced them to Barbara Walters, who bonds with the cuties in an ABC interview.

"My family gives me everything," Cannon, 31, told Walters. “Unconditional love means...the world to me. I mean, it's completion."

"It's just love," Carey, 41, added. "It's a beautiful place to be."

In addition to their own website DemBabies.com, named after what their parents referred to them as on Twitter for the nine months leading up to their birth, the kids already have nicknames, naturally: Roc and Roe.

"My son is laid back like me," Cannon told Us Weekly in June. "My daughter's a diva like her mom!"

The multiplatinum singer and TV personality welcomed their new additions into the world on their fourth wedding anniversary in L.A. on April 30.

    I made a comment earlier that lil missy Roe kinda seems like she has an attitude and probably more so with strangers. But she is still adorable and Roc is precious too. Yes, Roe has Nick features and Roc's eyes are just like Mariah. Mariah, you are my favorite artist and will always be!! J. B R. etc. can't touch you with their singing and that's why you're on the top,top,top. They have a lot to catching up to do and I doubt iif they ever will.!! Keep steady with you family and career until u retire and do something else so don't try to keep up with them you're over the top already. Love Dembabies, you and Nick. More power to YOU. GED BLESS!!!!!!!!!

    Mariah performed lived a little late in the pregnancy, and should have been on bed rest much sooner. It is much harder to go full term with twins and when a woman is in her 40's. Mariah said a couple of things about Nick that bothers me and I hope that she is not being abused, verbally or physically. I do believe that these two should have dated longer before getting married. Woman should be much smarter about marriage the second time around.

    Some of yall who don't know are just plain silly!!! My mom was light skinned but she was a shade darker than Mariah...My dad was about Nicks complexion... and black is on mine and my sisters my birth certificates... meanwhile when I show people pictures of my sister people think she is a white girl! My sister just recently had a child by a dark skinned african man about two years ago and when her son was first born he looked the same complexion as roc and roe! Now he is about my complexion. It takes time for a biracial child mixed with a light and dark pigmintation to surface. And sometimes if you have a lighter parent it never will! You can clearly tell that Roe has Nick's features and Mariah's personality where's Roc has Mariah's features and Nick's personality! Congradulations couple because their about the only couple in hollywood who portray real love to me...no matter how ackward it seemed at first!

    Beautiful family.

    They're adorable! I am white-- much lighter than the bi-racial Mariah-- and my son born last year is half Puerto Rican and several shades darker than Mariah's babies. My son's biological father wasn't really any darker than he is-- my son inherited his skin color (a beautiful mocha brown) from the dad, while right now at least, Mariah's babies look lighter than she does. You just never know how those genes are going to mix. Plus with mixed babies, their skin color can change from day to day. Also, I have curly blond hair and my son's father has dark hair-- my son was born with very straight dark brown hair, but it's gotten kinkier and kinkier over time, and now he's rocking a mini (and adorable) afro. Her babies' hair is cut short (probably because they went through a phase of it falling out in the back and sides like my son) but that doesn't mean both of them have straight hair or that it's going to stay that way.
