She's the daughter of a legendary singer and a television host who has 11 other children.
And on Saturday, this 13-year-old, who also has a twin brother, was pictured out with her dad in Los Angeles attending a school basketball game.
Adolescence brought a marked change for this nepo baby once known for her curly hair and eyeglasses. During the outing, her glasses were absent, and her hair was styled in long, loose locks.
The budding singer, who has performed with her five-time Grammy-winning mother a number of times, wore a trendy cammo hoodie, blue jeans, and a Prada purse with a cute stuffed animal charm.
The teenager — whose mom boasts a $350 million net worth — finalized her look with black and white sneakers.
Can you guess who this nepo baby is?
She's the 13-year-old daughter of a legendary singer and a television host who has 11 other children. Can you guess who?
That's right! It's Monroe Cannon, the daughter of Mariah Carey, 55, and Wild 'N Out host Nick Cannon, 44.
The father-daughter duo looked sweet together, with Nick's arm wrapped around her as they walked.
Monroe — whose name was inspired by Marilyn Monroe — was pictured with Nick and his other daughter Powerful Queen, four, whom he shares with Brittany Bell.
Cannon sported a white hoodie, oversized cammo pants, a green headscarf with a floral pattern and white sneakers.
Meanwhile Queen wore a white t-shirt, a matching skirt, and ruffled pink socks with white shoes.
Aside from Monroe, Nick also shares son Moroccan with the Fantasy hitmaker.
He and Carey were married from 2008 until 2016.
Monroe has followed in her mother's footsteps as a singer, performing alongside her on TikTok and onstage multiple times.
Last year, she joined her onstage at The Hollywood Bowl along with her brother.
And in 2023, Kim Kardashian captured video of the 'Queen of Christmas' singing a duet with Monroe of Jesus Born On This Day, when she took her daughters North and Chicago to the concert.

While cherishing her onstage moments with Monroe, Carey emphasized she won't force her career on her children.
In a 2022 interview with W Magazine, she said she wants her twins to know 'they can be anything they want to be.'
'I never say, "You guys gotta do this," you know? It’s whatever they want to do and they’re rehearsing for it and going for it and really working hard, so that’s impressive to me,' Carey told Access Hollywood in 2023.
In November 2021, Monroe and her brother appeared in a cameo role in Carey’s 'Fall in Love at Christmas' music video.
'I love it. I love seeing them stepping into this performance space, this music space, and the fact that they’re eager to do it, that’s on them,' Mariah said.
In 2023, Mariah said that her twins got paid for their tour appearances during an interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live!.

Aside from twins Monroe and Moroccan, and daughter Powerful, he also shares sons Golden Sagon, eight, and Rise Messiah, one, with Brittany; twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir, three, and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin, two, with Abby De La Rosa; son Legendary Love, two, with Bre Tiesi; and daughter Onyx Ice Cole, two, with LaNisha Cole. Cannon is also father to two children with Alyssa Scott — son Zen, who died at five months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer, and daughter Halo Marie, two.
During a recent episode of his and Courtney Bee's podcast We Playin' Spades, the conversation took a surprising turn when the former NFL player Ryan Clark began discussing his vasectomy.
Nick took the opportunity to say that the podcast felt like 'an intervention.'
His co-host Courtney noted that it seemed as if she had heard a lot about Black men getting vasectomies recently, and she wondered if it was a new phenomenon.
Nick had an apparent moment of clarity when he admitted — in a bashful tone — that getting a vasectomy was the 'responsible thing to do.'
'I'm just — I'm not done [having children],' he shared on a recent episode of his and Courtney Bee's podcast We Playin' Spades; pictured in November with Brittany and (L–R) sons Golden Sagon and Rise Messiah and daughter Powerful
However, even if he now acknowledged that it was the smart choice for someone in his position, he remained defiant.
'I'm just — I'm not done [having children],' he added.
Later, he was asked if he would have another child with one of the women who had already had his babies.
'I don’t know. That’s the thing. I leave it to the Lord,' he replied.
