Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon had a pajama party with Dem Babies recently.  See the adorable photos inside and find out about an "alleged" plot to replace Mariah on "American Idol" with Jennifer Lopez.  

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon tweeted some adorable pics from their recent pajama party with their twins Monroe and Moroccan.  The family wore matching blue and pink pajama sets and spent the evening eating popcorn and watching movies.  Mariah tweeted , "Hurry up Daddy!" (Ms Monroe, Roc Starr & Mommy Mimi wait patiently watching Shrek Box Set)

And proving that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, Mariah tweeted about Monroe's love of nice shoes, "Ms. Monroe raids mommy's shoe closet, slippers by agent provocateur (not yet 2 years old!)"

But outside of the safety her home provides, Mariah Carey and her job as a judge on "American Idol" has reportedly been under attack due to a secret plot by the show's producers to replace her with former "AI" judge Jennifer Lopez.  According to a scandalous article by The Hollywood Reporter, sources told THR that Idol producers hoped for a mid-season rating jaunt by replacing Mimi with J Lo.

The plot was reportedly foiled when Mimi's high powered legal team threatened to sue if she was replaced.  Now that the -ish has hit the fan, denials are coming from everywhere.  A Fox spokeswoman told THR "This is just another ridiculous Idol judge rumor, likely started by talks of Jennifer performing on the finale."  Meanwhile, "AI" producer Nigel Lythgoe told THR: "I have not been included in any conversation regarding replacing Mariah with Jen this season."  

So for now....Mimi is safe.  But do you think she's a good judge on "AI"?
