In recent days, Cannon made headlines after rumors that he was expecting his 11th child made the rounds. Those speculations, which were later confirmed to be accurate, revealed that the unborn child was the result of an affair he had with Scott.

While Cannon seems to have no qualms with expanding his family anytime he wishes, the news of the baby shocked fans who feel that having eleven children was a big deal.

Cannon's friend, Reynolds, was apparently one of those who was taken aback by the news as he took to Twitter to troll the TV host.

"We're gonna need a bigger bottle," he wrote on his page, quoting a post from People magazine that announced the baby news.

Reynolds's comment about needing "a bigger bottle" most likely draws its context from a hilarious ad for his Aviation Gin brand. The ad was shot in celebration of father's day and featured Cannon making what was dubbed 'The Vasectomy" – "the mother of all cocktails."

Cannon can be seen in the video listing the cocktail's ingredients, which include 1 oz. Cranberry juice, 3 oz. Tonic, a splash of lemon juice, ice cubes, and 1.5 oz. Aviation Gin, mixed and topped with an orange-rind twist.

The former "America's Got Talent" host talked about the delights of parenthood while mixing the cocktail, citing all the "full night's sleep" he's enjoying as if the cocktail had made his life much simpler.

Just as he finished up, Reynolds stepped into the scene, quickly taking the drink from Cannon. "I'll take it from here, Nick. I have three kids," Reynolds said, to which the Tv host replied, "I have eight."

The response stunned the "Deadpool" actor, leading him to spit up his drink. He then gave Cannon a reassuring hug as the camera panned into black.
