As a father of 12, Nick Cannon has no shame in his baby-making game.
In fact, he’s proud of being one fertile papa.

When “The Masked Singer” host was told that his “pull-out game is trash” during an interview with Audacy’s Hot 104.1, he came up with the perfect response: “Or my insert game is amazing.”
Clearly, the 42-year-old comedian has learned how to handle being the butt of jokes about having a dozen kids with six different women.
He has 11-year-old twins Monroe and Moroccan with ex-wife Mariah Carey; 21-month-old twins Zion and Zillion plus 4-month-old Beautiful Zeppelin with radio personality Abby De La Rosa; 3-month-old Halo with model Alyssa Scott; Golden Saigon, 6, Powerful Queen, 2, and Rise Messiah, 6 months, with model Brittany Bell; Legendary Love, 8 months, with model Bre Tiesi; and Onyx Ice, 6 months, with model LaNisha Cole.

Cannon added that he has “so much reverence” for the mothers of his children for putting up with his busy lifestyle between his career and baby-juggling duties.
“Anybody that could put up with me and everything from my schedule to how, you know, I gotta move and being in the media and stuff like that, like, that’s a queen,” he said. “I truly just honor everybody in my family because it ain’t easy.”
During his appearance on CNN’s “New Year’s Eve Live” special last December, Cannon was also ribbed about his large — and ever-expanding — brood.
“Nick, you are single-handedly repopulating the earth!” said co-host Andy Cohen. “Give it to you, man. What is your plan here?”

“Andy, clearly I don’t have a plan!” Cannon jokingly responded. “Honestly, man, it’s really just so much joy and elation to have the family that I have, and I embrace it and love it, but I don’t have a plan.”

And, despite having four kids in 2022 alone, Cannon may not be done yet.
“God decides when we’re done, but I believe I definitely got my hands full,” he told Entertainment Tonight. “I’m so focused. I’m locked in. But when I’m 85, you never know.”
