The Masked Singer host Nick Cannon is completely cool with Jimmy Kimmel’s recent joke about his unusually many children. According to the TV personality, he didn’t hold any hard feelings against Kimmel.


Nick Cannon is Okay with Jokes About His Having Many Children

Amid the 95th Academy Awards back on Sunday, returning host Jimmy Kimmel took the time to deliver an entertaining opening monologue. During this moment though, Kimmel didn’t shy away from poking fun of Cannon’s fertility quotient.

“Disney spent $2 billion on this movie, and just to break even, all of Nick Cannon’s kids had to see Avatar four times,” Kimmel said.

Soon after the awards show concluded, Cannon himself reacted to the unsolicited statement. Fortunately, the former America’s Got Talent host wasn’t at all hurt, saying that he’s too used to hearing jokes.


“I heard about that,” Cannon told TMZ. “It’s hilarious. I created Wild N’ Out — I can hear jokes all day long.”

For those who may not know, Cannon currently has 12 kids. He first became a father when pop star ex-wife Mariah Carey gave birth to twins in 2011. In the following years, he had 10 more babies with five other women. These are Brittany Bell, Abby De La Rosa, Bre Tiesi, LaNisha Cole and Alyssa Scott.

“Kimmel’s my man,” he said.


Yet, while the public believes that Cannon should already stop with 12 children, the comedian doesn’t leave any absolute answer.

He, Kevin Hart to Co-Host Celebrity Prank Wars

A week ago, Cannon teased a photo on Instagram which seemed to hint about his 13th baby. The host then revealed that he is set to partner with comedian Kevin Hart for Who’s Having My Baby? With Nick Cannon.

“We’re expecting…a new show on E,” he wrote.

Apparently, this post turned out to be a joke. Later, Cannon announced that Who’s Having My Baby? With Nick Cannon wasn’t their real show. Rather, they are producing and hosting Celebrity Prank Wars, an all-out war where celebrities would perform some of “wildest and most viral pranks” on each other.

Some of the celebrities set to join the fun are Brie Bella, Nikki Bella, Lil Duval, Chance The Rapper, T-Pain, Robin Thicke, T.I. and Xavier Woods.
