The father of 12 just cleared up the biggest holiday misconception. Nick Cannon Mother’s Day plan is not what anyone expected. While fans assumed he’d be juggling breakfast in bed across six different houses, the Wild ’N Out star told The TMZ Podcast that people have it completely twisted. His multi-baby mama holiday schedule is actually very simple: he doesn’t celebrate them at all on this particular Sunday.
“The holiday is called Mother’s Day, not Baby Mama Day,” Cannon explained plainly. His Mother’s Day plan revolves around one woman only: his own mother, Beth Gardner. The father of 12 made it clear that spoiling his children’s mothers is not his responsibility on the second Sunday of May. That job, he says, belongs to the kids.
“It’s up to all my kids to handle spoiling the moms themselves,” Cannon reiterated. “Absolutely not me.”
So which holiday actually gives the entertainer stress? Valentine’s Day, he admitted, is far more complicated. But Father’s Day is the real chaos. That’s when all 12 kids want his attention simultaneously. One day. Multiple locations. Every child expecting face time with dad.
The interview also featured Cannon’s Wild ’N Out co-host Rip Michaels, who shared his own eyebrow-raising Mother’s Day plans. His comments got so wild that even Cannon had to check him mid-sentence.
Cannon shares his 12 children with six different women, including Mariah Carey (twins Monroe and Moroccan), Brittany Bell (three sons), Abby De La Rosa (three sons), Alyssa Scott (two children including late son Zen), Bre Tiesi (one son), and LaNisha Cole (one daughter). Despite the sprawling family tree, his Mother’s Day position is firm: that Sunday belongs to mom. The other 364 days? That’s apparently a different conversation.
Fans remain divided. Some call it honest. Others call it cold. Either way, Nick Cannon isn’t bending on this one.
