Mariah Carey shared a hilarious text exchange with Shawn Mendes after mistaking his contact information for that of her cousin, whose name is also Shawn.
The "Fantasy" singer posted a screenshot of their conversation to Twitter on Friday, in which she accidentally wished Mendes a "Happy Thanksgiving" on St. Patrick's Day.
"My cousin Shawn M and I have this silly joke where we tell each other Happy Thanksgiving on St. Patrick's Day," Carey tweeted. "@ShawnMendes found out about it today.. sorry Shawn!!"

When Carey realized her mistake, she followed up with Mendes, texting him: "Wrong Shawn. Sorry. Also, I do realize it is NOT Thanksgiving. Haha."
The "Wonder" singer graciously replied: "hahahaha that's okay I figured it was an inside joke," followed by two heart emojis.
Last year, the two stars shared another playful exchange on social media, after Mendes posted a shirtless selfie along with a list of things he felt grateful for — including "old Mariah Carey songs."
Carey recreated the image and duplicated his caption, swapping the mention of her own
