The 44-year-old 'You're Mine (Eternal)' singer, who has three-year-old twins with husband Nick Cannon, said she has changed her TV viewing habits, reported Hello! Magazine.
"Now I only watch animation with the children because babies are very picky and like to watch cartoons until they go to sleep," she said.
Carey said that motherhood has changed her and now she bases her music career around kids, whom she affectionately calls 'Dem Babies'.
"Becoming a mommy has certainly changed me, both professionally and personally. Now it's not about me, it's all about them and I just want to do the right things so their childhood can be as beautiful and happy as possible," she said.
