Speaking of the video, she filmed Nick and Onyx in a colorful classroom with several multicolored play objects, contrasting with the clear white ceiling and bright lights. In addition, Stevie Wonder's tune could be heard in the background, prompting Nick to note that that was the song Onyx was born to and leading the teacher to increase its volume.

Meanwhile, LaNisha, whose face did not appear in the clip, giggled and said, "How cute," while "The Nick Cannon Show" host sang along in a low voice to their daughter. Amid filming, bubbles floated around the classroom, which the teacher explained helped the child's eyesight as she tracked the movement.

Onyx is clearly a significant source of the parents' joy, as evidenced in the video as well as their announcement, particularly Nick's, of her birth back in September. Per The Blast, the media personality shared the exciting news on Instagram with a lengthy message of love and promise and with a tribute to LaNisha for her impressive qualities.

Beginning the tribute, he wrote his ninth child's full name and added, "Once again, Today I am in Awe of the Devine Feminine! God has given me and @MissLanishaCole the privilege of hosting an Angel on earth."

Nick vowed to love and protect Onyx as much as possible before sending a message to critics, expressing his intention to "mute any low vibrational frequencies" amid the celebration. He further conveyed his desire to only "rejoice with the Highest Class of Civilization who are truly aligned with our purpose here in this dimension."

Elaborating more on children he called "angels," he pointed out that people learned from them, and he understood that the little love a parent showed was not the problem but the limited time spent on earth.

The 'Love Don't Cost A Thing' Actor Talks About The Difficulties Of Fathering Many Children

Not long ago, Nick opened up on "The Checkup with Dr. David Agus" about the struggles of fatherhood, particularly not spending enough time with his eleven children.

The Blast reported the interview, noting that as a man constantly swamped with work and fathering many kids, time was a luxury the actor could often not afford. Speaking candidly, he said:

"Being a father of multiple kids, it's always the biggest guilt on me is that I don't get to spend enough time with all my children. One 'cause I'm constantly working and two because I'm just spread thin."

It is no news that Nick has nearly a dozen children, including twins with his former spouse, Mariah Carey, three kids with Brittany Bell, another three with Abby De La Risa, and one each with LaNisha and Bre Tiesi.
