Mariah Carey Paints a Butterfly on Her Growing Baby Bump

 Pregnant pop diva Mariah Carey has painted a butterfly on her huge bump and posted the picture on Twitter.

The large drawing has one pink wing and one blue, to symbolise the girl and boy that are due in the next two weeks.

She says the body art is also to celebrate her 41st birthday and her anniversary with husband Nick Cannon which is next month.

Inside Mariah Carey's lavish baby shower

Mariah Carey isn't really one for subtly, so it's no surprise her baby shower was a lavish over-the-top affair.

The 41-year-old star, who is currently expecting twins with Nick Cannon, 31, has released photographs from the celebration, which was held at the Montage Beverly Hills Hotel on Sunday.

The singer, who wore a Roberto Cavalli dress for the occasion, is seen taking pride of place in a plush chair while her doting husband caresses her growing baby bump.
The venue was decked out in blue and pink balloons - she is set to give birth to a boy and a girl - and no expense was spared in food and decoration.
