Mariah Carey's babies worth $200,000?

Mariah Carey is shopping shots of her newborn twins, Moroccan Scott and Monroe, but the pop star will have trouble getting the millions she initially wanted for them, sources say. Multiple

mags including People and OK! are jockeying for the photos of the 7-week-old twin boy and girl, which will likely fetch a more modest $200,000.
But sources close to Carey and husband, “America’s Got Talent” host Nick Cannon, say the couple is more concerned with how tastefully the shots are presented than any giant price tag. “Mariah and Nick are more concerned with doing the right thing than going to the highest bidder,” said a source close to the couple. “They’re talking to a number of publications about doing it in the best and most tasteful way. Nick has said on radio he doesn’t feel entirely comfortable selling pictures of his children. But the first picture remains very valuable to the paparazzi.”
The twins were born in an LA hospital on April 30 but have not yet been seen in public. “She is still deciding when and if she’s going to [do the pictures],” said a rep for Carey. “She is enjoying being a mom, and there’s no rush. It’s not about the money.” Sources say Carey had hoped at first to get much more for the photos, possibly rivaling the most expensive of all time. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got a reported $14 million for Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline in 2008, although it went to charity.
But, “There’s not much movement going on right now,” said a source. “Everyone wants them, and everyone is putting in offers. But times and budgets have changed from the Brangie baby years.”
