Nick Cannon Claims 'God Decides' When He'll Stop Having More Kids

Nick Cannon recently welcomed baby number 12, and now he's saying, "God decides" when he'll stop having more kids. He had his 12th child after Alyssa Scott gave birth to a baby girl in December, who they named Halo Marie. 

Cannon welcomed three kids with three women in 2022 and already had five kids from two women before that. He became a father in 2011 when ex-wife Mariah Carey gave birth to their twins, Monroe and Moroccan. 

The actor recently spoke about his upcoming "Future Superstar" tour, which begins on February 25th in Los Angeles. The tour spans 24 cities and features rising tours like DW Flame, Hitman Holla, Klondike Blonde, and JD McCrary.

During a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Nick Cannon spoke about his plans to have more children in the future. Cannon has been at the center of controversies concerning his multitude of kids over the past few years. 

However, it seems the TV personality is finally ready to slow down. He said, "God decides when we're done, but I believe I definitely got my hands full. And I'm so focused. I'm locked in. But when I'm 85, you never know. I might [decide to have more]." 

Cannon had his 12th child in December 2022, after Alyssa Scott gave birth to their second child, a girl they named Halo Marie. Cannon and Scott previously had a son, Zen, in April 2021. However, the baby boy was soon diagnosed with brain cancer and passed when he was just five months old. 

In 2022 alone, Cannon welcomed three kids from three different women. He had a son Legendary, with Bre Tiesi, a daughter Onyx, with Lanisha Cole, and another son Rise, with Brittany Bell. Bell already had two kids for Cannon, five-year-old Golden, and one-year-old Powerful. 

Cannon also has three kids with Abby De La Rosa, including their one-year-old twins, Zion and Zillion, and a baby girl they named Beautiful Zeppelin. The "Drum Line" actor first became a father when he and ex-wife Mariah Carey had twins, Monroe and Moroccan, in 2011. Cannon and Carey eventually separated in 2014 and made their divorce official in 2016. 

During the interview with Entertainment Tonight, Cannon also spoke about the viral TikTok video Carey and Monroe made with Kim Kardashian and her daughter, North. The "Masked Singer" host said the video was an unexpected collaboration, considering he's previously dated Kardashian, but it was "epic."

The video featured North and Monroe singing and dancing to one of Carey's hit songs as their moms appeared on the screen. The two girls then pushed Kardashian and Carey out of the video's frame, and they all laughed. Cannon said, "That song that they were doing [the] TikTok to is a song that I produced and worked on with Mariah, so even that made it special."

Cannon also stated that Monroe clearly has the "entertainment bug" from her parents and might be following in her mother's footsteps. He added, "You can definitely see that connection between her and her mom. It's beautiful, the fact that they get to have fun with each other."

The "Wild 'n Out" host also spoke about his "Future Superstar" music tour, which kicks off on February 25th at the popular Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles. The tour spans 24 cities and features ten upcoming musicians that want to display their talent. 

However, Cannon said the tour isn't an avenue for him to become a talent scout for the upcoming artists but a way to pave the road for them. He said, "I don't have the credibility to deem anyone a superstar. To be a star, it goes back to you gotta have that superstar energy; it's already within you. It comes from within."

Cannon added that he really "just wanted to put all those people together on a tour bus, old school Berry Gordy style." Some of the talents the actor featured in the tour include Big Boss Vette, Symba, DW Flame, 24kGoldn, Klondike Blonde, and Hitman Holla.
