Brunch just lost its cool factor after Mariah Carey decided it was so passé!

The “We Belong Together” singer shared on Saturday that brunch is not her preferred meal.

“A friend called and asked me to do brunch. Come on.. I don’t do brunch, it’s daytime!!” Carey wrote on Twitter.

“I suggested linner instead,” she added, calling linner the new brunch in a hashtag. “Definition: a late dinner!” 

A friend called and asked me to do brunch. Come on.. I don't do brunch, it's daytime!! I suggested linner instead 😂☕ (definition: a late dinner!) #linneristhenewbrunch

The internet, of course, had its thoughts. But it appears that many agreed that brunch should be dead.

Wow Mariah Carey just singlehandedly ended brunch and established linner.
