Nick Cannon Reveals Mariah Carey’s “Big Surprise”

Mariah CareyMariah Carey sure knows how to stir the pot.

The 39-year-old diva sent bloggers into a frenzy when she teased on the Oscars red carpet that she has “something special on the way.” Of course that means she’s preggers, right?

We caught up with Carey’s other half, Nick Cannon, who let us in on a little secret…

“It’s funny because the big surprise has to do with Home Shopping Network or something like that,” Cannon revealed at the Stars & Strikes Fundraiser supporting APCH at PINZ in Studio City. “She has a new product coming out. It has nothing to do with kids.”

Mimi may not have a bun in the oven just yet, but that doesn’t mean it won’t happen soon. “We would have a beautiful baby, wouldn’t we?” Cannon said. “We’re laying the foundation right now. We just got a home out here and all that stuff, and Mariah just came off tour, so we’ll see what happens.”

In the meantime, the sexy songbird and her hubby are just enjoying married life. “What people don’t understand is Mariah has the funniest sense of humor ever,” Cannon gushed. “She’s hilarious. We always have a good time.”

We can only assume Cannon supports his “hilarious” wife’s dream to star in a Woody Allen film.

Nick Cannon: Mariah And I ‘Plan On Having Kids!’

Mariah CareyWhen do YOU think these two lovebirds should start building their family nest?

While Mariah Carey may not be pregnant YET, she and hubby Nick Cannon are definitely talking kids!

“Family is important to us. We plan on having kids in the future,” the 29-year-producer raved of his wife of nearly two years at the APCH Stars & Strikes celebrity bowling and poker tournament in Los Angeles March 10.

Children seem like an excellent idea for these two, especially as they seem to be so completely in love. While Nick simply smiled when we asked if babies were on their way ASAP, he did gush how beautiful his wife is.

Although he joked that Mariah, 39, would need two weeks to prepare for the Oscars, he told us it actually took the songbird “twenty minutes” to get ready because, “she’s so beautiful, that’s all she needs.”

Everyone altogether now: awwwwwwwww.

But just how has this A-list couple managed to have such a successful union? “Marry your best friend,” Nick advised us.

Hey Nick, you didn’t mention in order to have a happy marriage, you also have to carry your wife’s mints (and pocketbooks) as we’ve seen you do on several occasions now. That helps too. Just sayin’.

Q&A: Nick Cannon

Saturday, February 13, 2010

Mr. Multitasking talks about his DJ gig at Underground and V-Day plans with wife Mariah Carey.

Nick Cannon is a busy man. To say the least.
 
The actor-producer-record exec-TV star-you-name-it not only hosts “America’s Got Talent” and a morning radio show in New York, he’s chairman of the Teen Nick network; is CEO of his production company, Ncredible, and his own record label, Can I Ball Records; produces about eight TV shows; and owns high school magazine Celebrity High. Oh yeah, and he’s married to Mariah Carey.
 
Cannon, who lives in New York and L.A., estimates that he sleeps two hours a night. Three on a good night.
 
At 10 p.m. Saturday Cannon will DJ–name: DJ Sexyfingerz–for the third time at Underground ($20 cover; RSVP to rsvp@rockitranch.com). On his way from the Def Jam offices to the MTV building in Times Square, Cannon, 29, talked about his DJ skills and his Valentine’s Day weekend plans with his wife, who performs Saturday and Sunday at Chicago Theatre.
 
I’ll name a list of elements in a possible Valentine’s Day celebration. You tell me what you will or won’t be including: Fireplace. Bearskin rug. Chocolate sauce. Edible underwear. A donkey.
 
Wow. None of those except maybe the chocolate sauce. [Laughs]
 
That’s the only one? No chance of the others?
 
No donkeys! Unless we’re putting luggage on his back to walk to the cars with. But the donkey cannot be in the room.
 
What do you really have planned for Valentine’s Day this weekend? I saw you were shopping for sweets.
 
Just really hangin’ out. Obviously we gonna be in the Chi. Just spending time with each other, spending that whole day just havin’ fun. We kind of cherish that time when we don’t have to do anything and don’t have to work, so that’s probably what it’ll be about.
 
What are some spots in Chicago you’re hoping to check out?
 
I mean, probably mostly the hotel room. The Pier’s always a great place to go, so if it’s not too cold we might venture down there.
 
Last Valentine’s Day you guys started a fire in your hotel room.
 
Yeah, she saved my life.
 
How did she put it out?
 
There was a bunch of vases with water in it and roses and she just thought extremely fast, ripped all the roses out of the vases and just started throwing the water on the fire.
 
That must’ve been surreal.
 
Yeah, I was just screamin’ like a little bitch while she was being the hero.
 
What did she say to you afterwards?
 
I mean, nothin’. I was too busy giving her props for saving my life that she was just like, “I had to think fast.”
 
What can people expect from your DJ set at Underground Saturday?
 
I like to bring the fun, you know what I mean. The hottest new records. I like to throw some stuff in there that’ll make people smile or giggle and stuff like that. It’ll be some throwback stuff, just keeping the BPM’s goin’, keeping people dancing.
 
Be honest: How many Mariah Carey songs do you put into a set?
 
At least three. [Laughs] If she shows up it’ll probably be more. But she’s got some bangers. “Obsessed” is a smash, the new “Up Out My Face” is a smash, and then the classic “Fantasy.” So I always gotta play that. I think every DJ plays those.
 
Do you expect that she’ll swing by after the show?
 
You never know. It always depends how she’s feeling after the show. The most important thing is her voice, so we never going to jeopardize that. But sometimes if she knows I’m going to DJ she come in there and keep an eye on me.
 
I hear you and your wife are trying to conceive, which is awesome. Do you have any suggestions for setting the mood?
 
[Laughs] Uh, not really. That’s funny that people just make stuff up like say we’re trying to conceive. That was news to me. I also heard I was adopting a Haitian kid too. Stuff like that is funny. We just leaving that type of stuff up to God and when the time is right.
 
Some articles are, like, you guys are hiding in a bunker just getting down to it.
 
[Laughs] Yeah, that’s definitely buggin’ me out. People just make up stuff like that.
 
So that’s not the goal.
 
Yeah, nah. We don’t need to try. When it’s right, it’ll be right.
 
What advice do you have for guys who are dating older women?
 
Uh, don’t think about it. I’ve kind of always been a dude that was just attracted to people more mature than I was. You gotta be a person who understands a female if you goin’ to venture to someone who’s probably a little more mature than you. Guys already got so much goin’ up against us with women being smarter than us. So you gotta be ready for it.
 
So when you say “don’t think about it,” you mean most people shouldn’t do it?
 
No, if you put too much thought into it you’re going to screw it up.
 
Because women are already five steps ahead of us.
 
Exactly. So if you try to analyze it then you’re really going to set yourself up. So go with the flow, enjoy yourself. Age ain’t nothin’ but a number.
 
What’s been the most surreal moment on “America’s Got Talent” so far?
 
Probably somebody eating light bulbs and blood gushing out of their mouth. That was disgusting; I don’t ever need to experience that again.
 
What’s going through your head when that happens and you have to comment?
 
Usually if it’s going through my head I say it, but it’s like, “What the hell is wrong with these people?”
 
Is that still an example of a talent?
 
It’s something! It’s entertaining to some people. [Laughs] So I can’t knock their hustle. If they want to eat light bulbs and make themselves bleed, hats off to ‘em. Bite away.

nick-cannon-valentine.jpgLooks like Feb. 14 is shaping up to be one sweet day for Mariah Carey!

During a recent visit to New York, her husband Nick Cannon got a jumpstart on his Valentine’s Day shopping, stopping by the Renaissance Hotel’s “Sweetest Suite,” where he picked up some edible gifts for the two to enjoy together. The room was packed with more than 300 lbs. of treats provided by Dylan’s Candy Bar, and Cannon indulged— dipping pretzel sticks into a white chocolate fountain.

While there, Cannon also stocked up on giant Rice Krispie treats, gummi worms, Runts, and Now and Laters, which he told people he was planning to take home to Mariah.

Nick Cannon Reveals His Smokin’ Valentine’s Day Memories With Mariah Carey

Mariah CareyIt’s Valentine’s Day Week here on Hollywood Crush, so stay with us as we celebrate the titular movie and the national holiday over the next five days with celebrities’ personal V-Day stories, romance tips and interviews with the “Valentine’s Day” cast!

Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey certainly know how to keep it hot when they are alone. And, as it turns out, when these two plan out a Valentine’s Day they also know how to make it memorable. The only problem is: how they will they ever follow up last year’s scorcher?

“Last Valentine’s Day my wife and I …it was our first Valentine’s Day, so we were trying to outdo each other,” Nick told MTV News. “We were in a hotel room and I decided we were going to fill it up with balloons and all this fun tissue paper and stuff and she had the same idea.”

He recalled that although they had similar thought processes, it turns out that both of their decorations led to quite a mess in the hotel room. “So her balloons had a light show and [there were’ candles everywhere, so I guess our two ideas didn’t mesh together well,” he continued. “So you walk into this room and all you see is red and lights and candles. We were opening gifts and I smell smoke… the whole room was on fire and I screamed like a little b****. Mariah, being a hero that she is, put the fire out. She’s my hero. She’s my valentine hero, so hopefully this year we won’t set nothing on fire.”

EW Exclusive: Nick Cannon on his busy career, his goals for the future, and his life with wife Mariah Carey

Thursday, February 4, 2010

Mariah CareyNick Cannon firmly believes in the power of positive thinking. Ask the 29-year-old how his various achievements came about—successful stand-up comic at 15 years old, staff writer for Nickelodeon’s All That and Kenan & Kel at 17, CEO of his own production company Ncredible, chairman of the TeenNick cable network, host of NBC’s hit America’s Got Talent and a daily radio show, and loving husband to Mariah Carey—and he’ll tell you that he willed them to happen by telling the universe what he wanted. “I truly believe in speaking things into existence,” says Cannon. “Not to get all Tony Robbins, but you speak it, and it can definitely happen to you.” Cannon sat down with EW for an exclusive interview on his growing career and his high-profile marriage to superstar Mariah Carey.On his film career: “They started throwing every movie [at me] and I chose bad. I didn’t understand that you had to be strategic. I was like, ‘A couple million dollars?! I get to shoot a gun?! Let’s go!’”

On his marriage to Mariah: “There were people who were for it and there were more people who were against. You have to ask the question: Is your heart more important than your career? Absolutely. I was like, If I don’t do anything else ever again in the entertainment industry, I’m in love with this woman.”

On his five-year plan: “First and foremost, to have a happy family and have some little Cannons running around. And then career-wise, I feel like I’m in that stage where people are taking me serious as a man right now. I wanna be a billionaire in five years. It can happen! I’m speaking it into existence!”

On raising children in Hollywood: “Me and my wife talk about it all the time. As much as there are private jets and champagne everywhere, I want them to understand that’s not what life is about. I’ve met quite a few grounded people who were born into situations like this. We look at those type of examples. I always admired the Kardashian family. They are normal. They’re a family that really loves each other. Or the Osbournes.”

On Mariah’s pet peeves: “She hates when I’m messy when it has to do with her nice stuff. Like, I can’t throw my jacket on the Marilyn Monroe piano—but I do. She hates that I wear suits. She likes me in, like, Timberlands with the fitted cap and T-shirts.”

For more from Nick Cannon, including how he and Mariah spend a typical night at home, pick up the new issue of Entertainment Weekly on stands Friday.

Mariah CareyMariah Carey can’t stand it when husband Nick Cannon is a slob. “She hates when I’m messy when it has to do with her nice stuff. Like, I can’t throw my jacket on the Marilyn Monroe piano — but I do,” Cannon tells Entertainment Weekly. The chairman of Nickelodeon’s “TeenNick” says dressing up for his first meeting with Carey helped propel her into his arms: “I wore my good cologne. Did some push-ups. Tried to get my grown-man look on.”

Nick Cannon: Starting family with wife Mariah Carey is the ‘only priority in life’

Tuesday, February 2, 2010

4 Comments

Mariah CareyHappy couple Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey are planning on starting a family — just not for a while.

Cannon revealed this week that he and his songbird spouse are just too busy to have a baby right now.

“We absolutely plan to have a family,” Cannon told MTV.com. “But we gotta prioritize, because that’s a major, major priority.

“That’s like the only priority in life, when you think about it, is starting and raising a family. We want to make sure everything is out of the way and that we don’t have any distractions.”

While Carey, 40, is touring the country promoting her latest CD, “Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel,” the 29-year-old Cannon is busy hosting “America’s Got Talent” and his new morning radio show.

That leaves the couple, who celebrates their second anniversary in May, little time to spend together, said Cannon.

“She’s on tour right now, I’m doing a bunch of stuff, so eventually we want to be able to say it’s time to have a kid, and set everything up,” he said.

“But we’re definitely moving toward [it]. We got our house in L.A., and we got a house [in New York City], established and close to schools,” he added. “So we take all of that stuff into consideration.”

Nick Cannon Planning Valentine’s Day Surprise for Mariah

Monday, February 1, 2010

1 Comment

mariah-carey-012310-4.jpgNick Cannon is 100% head over heels in love with his wife Mariah Carey. The two are inseparable, and he talked with Hollyscoop about what he does to keep her happy.

Despite all the rumors, the couple is not expecting a baby, though they both have expressed that they’d like to start trying. Nick told Hollyscoop he would keep us in the loop when it comes to any stork news. “I’ll let you know,” he assured us. “I’ll let Hollyscoop know the scoop when I’m scooping it.”

One thing Nick is sure about is Valentine’s Day. “That is one of my favorite days,” he confessed on the red carpet at the Grammy awards. “I’m a hopeless romantic. I have to shower my wife with something amazing.”

So what do you get the woman who seems to have it all…more bling bling? Nick refused to tell us, insisting his wife is an avid Hollyscoop reader, and didn’t want to ruin the surprise. “I’m not telling you my secret but I will let you know that is has to do with a getaway,” Nick dished.

Hmm, they just came back from Aspen, so it can’t be there. Perhaps Nick is planning a romantic getaway to the Jersey Shore? He is a fan after all. He told us, “Absolutely, that is MTV that is how I get down.”

For Mariah’s sake, we hope Nick opts for someplace a little more tropical! We can’t see Mariah dancing the night away at Karma!
