On Good Terms
- For most people, co-parenting isn’t the easiest thing for exes to do—especially when the divorce ended badly—but for the Wild ‘N’ Out star, it’s the exact opposite.
- “The common denominator is we both want what’s best for our children,” the former America’s Got Talent host, 37, told Us Weekly. “You put them first and you step back and become selfless in making decisions and it’s pretty easy.”
- “That’s my homegirl. Always will be,” he continued. “Whatever she does, that’s Mariah Carey. She can do no wrong in my book.”
- Cannon’s 11-month-old son, Golden, (with Brittany Bell) is also a priority in his life but that hasn’t stopped him from being a father equally to all of his kids.
- “ I love being a father,” he told Us in November. “A father is the greatest blessing and greatest responsibility that can ever be bestowed on you. So hopefully I can do it again too.”
- Whether it’s Nick Cannon’s songs and albums or Nick Cannon’s movies and TV shows, the TV host still supports his ex-wife, whenever she’s being portrayed negatively in the press.
- “Always, I feel like it’s unfair and the press can just mistreat someone for headlines because they spin the story the way they want to spin it,” said Cannon. “The people who are my loved ones, I’m always concerned for them.”
- He added, “I’ll always stand up for anybody that’s being mistreated, misquoted.”
Instead of Nick Cannon’s tour, fans can look forward to seeing the father of three play on Team Lakers, during the NBA All-Star Celebrity game on Friday, February 16 at 7:00 p.m. EST at the Los Angeles Convention Center! The real question; will he be hitting the court in his infamous turban?
