Don’t worry y’all. Nick Cannon is not having another kid…YET.
The N’Credible seed-spreading mogul had Twitter buzzing, thinking another kid who would get a ridiculous name was on the way. “EXPECT some big news tomorrow,” along with eyes and a baby bottle emojis he wrote in the cryptic tweet that had users screaming another one like they were DJ Khaled.
He followed that tweet with a viral clip claiming he is “expecting a new show on E!” called “Whos Having My Baby” along with Kevin Hart as a host.
In the clip, Hart tells Cannon, “You’re gonna get some contestants that want to have your baby.”
Nick Cannon & Kevin Hart Got Us Good
The clip immediately sparked confusion among people and even news outlets, with the Today Show reporting on it as if this was an actual show coming to E!
Welp, it was an elaborate prank and a genius way to promote Kevin Hart’s new show Celebrity Prank Wars, coming to E! on April 6. The show will see the duo take their “friendly feud” to another comical level, including their famous friends.
This will be the second gameshow Hart has with the network. He is currently the host of Celebrity Game Face, a job he has held since 2020.
Per The Hollywood Reporter:
Episodes will see stars “planning and perpetrating some of the wildest and most viral pranks on each other,” according to the network, with co-hosts Cannon and Hart selecting the winner of each prank war. Each prank is expected to be more elaborate than the next. The show’s celebrity participants will include Anthony Anderson, Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Lil Duval, Big E, Fantasia, Tiffany Haddish, Taraji P. Henson, Lil Jon, Kofi Kingston, Ludacris, Joel McHale, Killer Mike, Chance the Rapper, T-Pain, Robin Thicke, T.I. and Xavier Woods.
No More Babies At The Moment
So breathe a sigh of relief, Nick Cannon is not procreating at the moment, but there is still a chance as he awaits a message from God telling him to chill.
Will you be tuning into Celebrity Prank Wars? It sounds like it could be a hilarious watch.

Lucky number 13? Nick Cannon took to Twitter on Monday (March 6) to tease what seems like another baby announcement.
“EXPECT some big news tomorrow,” he wrote along with eyes and a baby bottle emoji.
If he is indeed announcing another bundle of joy on the way, the child will be Cannon’s 13th kid. He shares twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-wife Mariah Carey, and twins Zion and Zillion with Abby De La Rosa, who gave birth to her third baby with Cannon, Beautiful Zeppelin, less than two months prior to his youngest child, daughter Halo’s birth. He shares the 3-month-old with model Alyssa Scott.
He is also dad to Golden Sagon, Powerful Queen and Rise Messiah, whom he shares with Brittany Bell; Legendary Love, whose mom is Bre Tiesi; and Onyx Ice Cole with LaNisha Cole.
Cannon’s headline-making fertility is so unorthodox it’s become a bit of a joke for his friends. Shortly after the Drumline star welcomed four children in the span of about six months starting in December 2020, Kevin Hart posted a massive billboard in Los Angeles revealing Cannon’s actual phone number.
“For any advice on fatherhood ? Call my best friend Nick Cannon,” the billboard read.
“It’s not about what society deems is right,” Cannon told Men’s Health in 2022 about having kids with multiple women. “It’s like, what makes it right for you? What brings your happiness? What allows you to have joy and how you define family? We all define family in so many different ways.”
“People even often ask, ‘Are you gonna have more? You gonna stop?’” he continued. “I’m like, those are questions that I don’t really even sit around and think about. I’m just walking in my purpose and trying to be the best father and best provider I could possibly be.”

In 2022, Nick Cannon could not stop making kids. Now, we have to hope the one above is just as tired as we are about him making babies.
The entertainment mogul can stop his N’Credible seed spreading ways when he wants to, but instead, he’s leaving that decision up to God.
Speaking with Entertainment Tonight, Cannon said, “God decides when we’re done, but I definitely got my hands full.” He even hints at continuing his child-conceiving ways well into life, adding, “And I’m so focused. I’m locked in. But, when I’m 85, you never know, I might [have more].”
We hope he’s joking, but there is a good chance he is not.
The last child Cannon welcomed into the world was Halo Marie, with Alyssa Scott.
Halo joins the long ever-growing list of siblings with interesting names, including Legendary, Rise, Onyx, Golden, Powerful, Zion, Zillion, Beautiful Zeppelin and Monroe.
Whew, that’s a lot of kids.
Cannon’s penchant for making children was all the talk of 2022, where it seemed he was taking and dropping maternity photos every week.
He was even subjected to jokes on his popular variety show Nick Cannon Presents: Wild ‘n Out. The regulars jokingly take swipes at him about constantly knocking his love interests up.
Hopefully, God speaks to Nick Cannon in his dreams or during a prayer session and introduces him to a procedure called a vasectomy if Mr. Cannon needs any ideas on how to pause his child-making.

Bre Tiesi Defends ‘Happy’ Nick Cannon After LaNisha Cole Shade Bre Tiesi, the mother of Nick Cannon’s baby boy Legendary Love, is defending him as a parent just one day after his baby’s mother LaNisha Cole seemingly threw shade his way.

Nick Cannon sat down for a new interview Wednesday (Dec. 14) to discuss his late son Zen’s battle with a rare form of brain cancer.
Speaking to Dr. David Agus, the Masked Singer host shared that, initially, he brought Zen for a checkup when the baby started breathing abnormally. “But when we took him to the doctor, they noticed that his head was larger than it should’ve been at 2 months. And then that was the first sign that there was something occurring,” he explained in the new episode of The Checkup With Dr. Agus.
“They did a lot of tests; they didn’t let him leave the hospital,” Cannon continued. “And so you can imagine, you think you’re taking your son in to get a checkup for, at the worst I was thinking asthma, you know? And to know that he gets diagnosed with brain cancer, that was a shock.”
Cannon further explained that his and mom Alyssa Scott’s primary focus from then on was the 2-month-old’s quality of life, from letting the doctors put a shunt in to drain the fluid from his brain to deciding to forgo further, more aggressive treatment like chemotherapy.
“They pretty much told me that, ‘Best-case scenario, your son could live to 3 or 4 years old,’” he said. “And so instantly when I heard that, I was like, ‘OK, quality of life. I want him to have the best existence that he could possibly have.’”
Sadly, Zen died in December 2021 at just 5 months old. Since then, Cannon has welcomed four more children with four other women, and Scott announced last month that her second baby with the star is on the way — bringing his ever-growing brood to a full dozen.
Cannon’s episode of The Checkup is now streaming on Paramount+. Additional episodes feature interviews with Oprah Winfrey and Maria Shriver, Amy Schumer, Ashton Kutcher and his twin brother Michael and more.
Watch a preview of Cannon’s discussion with Dr. Agus below.
Nick Cannon is Hollywood’s most famous baby daddy, which is all fun and games until it comes to shopping for Christmas presents. The star shared a hilarious video to his YouTube channel this week, in which he details the stress of buying gifts for his 11 children.
“It’s almost the holidays and, thanks to me, the world now has 8 billion people,” Cannon joked while wearing a Santa hat and Christmas pajamas, amid a cozy holiday background. “But my job’s not done. It’s time to do some online Christmas shopping and based off the baby mama to kid ratio, we got a whole hell of a lot of gifts to buy.”
Chaos then ensues, as Cannon struggles to check off the items on his kids’ wishlists, from a dolphin and a Playstation 5 to the Los Angeles Lakers. “No, I can’t afford the whole Lakers,” Cannon says on the phone to presumably one of his children. “Maybe one of them. I could probably purchase one Laker.”
“All these damn gifts, y’all just don’t want to go to college, huh?” Cannon says in a panic as all his credit cards decline. “You said it’s unlimited! There’s a limit to this s—,” he shouts on the phone with the credit card company.
The two-minute clip wraps up with Cannon wishing fans a happy holidays “from my big a– family to yours,” as well as a sponsored clip from “Baby Daddy Financial.”
The Masked Singer host first became a father to twins with Mariah Carey in 2011 and most recently made an announcement in November 2022 that model Alyssa Scott was pregnant with his 12th baby. In the time between those two events, he also welcomed children with four other ladies: Brittany Bell, Abby De La Rosa, Bre Tiesi and LaNisha Cole.

Nick Cannon swears that he’s “good right now” with the amount of children he has — but he’s also unsure if he has any more on the way.
Speaking with Billboard News at the Billboard Live: R&B/Hip-Hop Power Players event, Cannon caught up with Tetris Kelly on the red carpet, who asked him about his musical endeavors and what he had in the works for the future. “I got a record with Chris Brown out now called ‘I Do,’” the multi-hyphenate explained. “It’s always working, more on the executive side, we got a lot of hot young artists coming up, so we’re excited about next year.”
And when asked about his brood — which currently consists of 11 kids and one on the way — the former talk show host said, “That’s my number one priority obviously. I wake up being a father thinking about my kids and everything else comes after that.”
Cannon also expressed his gratitude for his children being the driving force behind his many projects. “My kids are definitely the creative force in all that I do,” he gushed. “They’re the funniest, most innovative, best questions…every project I’m working on now is through their eyes.”
So are there more baby Cannons in the works? “I don’t know, man. I have no idea. I think I’m good right now!”
