Nick Cannon has revealed how much he spends on child support.
This comes after reports surfaced that it costs him upwards of $3 million.
But Cannon has now set the record straight.
Scroll down for the full story!
Now, Cannon is notorious for a lot of things.
Throughout his career, he’s managed to try out many different stints which have earned him a pretty impressive resume.
From hosting, to acting, to stand-up gigs… the man seems to have done it all.
But he actually began his career on the Nickelodeon sketch show All That when he was just a teenager.
After that, though, there seemed to be no stopping the star…
He went on to host his very own The Nick Cannon Show, as well as other gigs such as America’s Got Talent and Lip Sink Battle Shorties.
The California native also has a load of acting experience under his belt.
His best-known movies include Drumline and Love Don’t Cost a Thing.
He has even dipped his toe into the world of music, having released 2 albums.
But there’s something else he’s pretty well known for…
His love life has certainly been a rollercoaster.
And which partner to better to start off with than the Queen of Pop herself, Mariah Carey.
Cannon’s relationship with Carey was very public, with both of them being extremely loved-up throughout their time together.
They even have twins together, Monroe and Moroccan, aged eleven.
But in 2012, the couple called it quits in what Carey described to be a “tough” split…
Wherein both parties spent a lot of time hashing things out with divorce lawyers.
But thankfully, Cannon and Carey remained friends in the end.
However, Cannon quickly moved on, being linked with women such as Jessica White and Brittany Bell.
And the comedian went on to have 3 children with the latter.
Golden “Sagon”, born in 2017, Powerful Queen, born in 2020, and Rise Messiah born earlier this year.
But this is where things get a little sticky…
It was reported that Cannon was seeing 3 women, after stating he doesn’t believe in monogamy.
“I think I’ll never be able to be with just one woman again,” he said during an episode of the podcast ExpediTIously.
And he stayed true to his word…
He was reportedly still dating Bell alongside other women, including model Jessica White.
White even revealed that she had a miscarriage around the same time that Bell announced her second pregnancy.
Then in 2021, the star welcomed twins with Abby De La Rosa, named Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir.
The pair are also reportedly expecting a third child.
Cannon also welcomed a child with model Bre Tiesi this year.
Legendary Love was born back in June.
Model LaNisha Cole shared that she has also had a child with Cannon this year.
The pair welcomed Onyx Ice Cole in September.
However, now the star is preparing to welcome another bundle of joy into his life.
This time it’s with model Alyssa Scott.
Fans have sent their congratulations to the couple…
“I knew it! So happy for you,” one user wrote.
Another wrote: “Congrats! What a sweet blessing.”
The pair have had a child together before.
But sadly, Cannon and Scott suffered a tremendous loss…
Their 5-month-old son, Zen, passed away last year.
He opened up about the loss on The Nick Cannon Show.
Cannon explained that Zen was suffering from a brain cancer called hydrocephalus…
Zen even underwent brain surgery, but sadly the tumor “began to grow a lot faster,” and he passed away in December 2021.
Scott’s pregnancy announcement will make this Cannon’s eleventh child.
Cannon confirmed he is the father of Scott’s child this week.
In a rather raunchy bathtub photoshoot posted to Scott’s Instagram…
In the photo, Scott was seen standing nude with her baby bump prominently displayed in profile, while Cannon placed one hand over her stomach, the Daily Mail reports.
But that’s not the latest news in the drama…
Free Guy star Ryan Reynolds had chimed in and appeared to mock Cannon’s announcement.
“We’re gonna need a bigger bottle,” tweeted the star, quoting an article referring to Cannon’s latest announcement.
Reynold’s tweet was a play on words of the infamous line from Jaws: “We’re gonna need a bigger boat.”
But don’t worry, it also refers to an in-joke between Cannon and Reynolds too.
Cannon featured in an advert for Reynolds’ alcohol brand Aviation Gin, aptly titled ‘The Vasectomy’.
The ad shows Cannon creating a cocktail named after the title, because, in his own words, “Lord knows I need one.”
Then, it shows Reynolds coming on screen to “take it from here” as he has “3 kids.”
To which Cannon responds with: “I have 8.”
Upon hearing this, Reynolds spits out his drink everywhere, before it ends with the pair hugging and Reynolds saying: “It’s no wonder you have 8 kids, you smell amazing.”
And now, it looks like Cannon is going to become a father once more after Abby De La Rosa announced her third child.
Rosa revealed that she was pregnant back in June.
Sharing the news, she wrote on Instagram: “to find the best Z name I can find” for her baby.
But earlier this week, she shared a post on her Instagram story that read: “1 night with a Libra can turn into 3-4 years. Be careful.”
Rosa then added her own comment, writing: “Damn! Lol 1 night turned into 4 years and 3 kids real quick … I see no lies here smh. Y’all be safe out there.”
Cannon, who already has sixteen-month-old twins Zillion and Zion with Rosa, is a Libra.
Having, what will be, twelve kids to support can’t be easy.
He has recently announced the birth of his 11th child.
The star, 42, took to Instagram to reveal that his ex Abby De La Rose, who he also shares twin sons Zion and Zillion with, gave birth to a baby girl called Zeppelin on Friday.
And the pair have chosen a unique name for their baby girl.
Her name is Beautiful Zeppelin Cannon.
On Instagram Cannon wrote, “A BEAUTIFUL DAY for ‘BEAUTIFUL ZEPPELIN CANNON’ to arrive,” captioning a sweet photo of him, Abby and baby together.
He continued on to say, ”Mommy @hiabbydelarosa you make it ALL look so easy and effortless but I am forever indebted to your tireless work of constant dedication, diligent effort and selfless love that you give to our children and myself.”
‘Beautiful is privileged to have such a Loving and Spiritually inclined Mother. Your resilience and strength doesn’t go unnoticed. Watching you smile through the world’s madness and my constant craziness is so impressive”
It looks like congratulations are in order!

Cannon has now addressed the reports that suggested he spends upwards of $3 million on child support for his kids…
“I definitely spend a lot more than that on my children annually,” he told The Neighborhood Talk.
“I don’t plan to ever have to participate in the governmental system,” Cannon added.
