Mr. Mariah Carey talks twins, hình xăm and making the wife laugh
So what if he's married to one of the most famous, five-octave-range-singing, Hello Kitty-loving superstar artists on the planet? For comedian Nick Cannon, 30, being Mariah Carey's baby daddy means keeping it real.
We got him to dish on his own day-to-day craziness.
New York Post: Holy cow, Nick – twins! Are bạn exhausted?
Nick Cannon: Nah, I don't get tired (laughs).
bạn guys described the birthing process as an "I tình yêu Lucy" episode – including how bạn got Mất tích on your way to the maternity ward. What went down?
bạn know how we guys don't like to take directions. We'd been to the hospital a couple of times before and I was like, "I know where I'm going." I was trying to be Super Dad, carrying all the bags, and I went in through the wrong entrance. The hospital is hard to navigate – it's a big place!
Before the big day, bạn tweeted about being afraid you'd faint in the delivery room. Did bạn keep cool?
Yeah, I had the camera, so that helped me maintain my emotions. There was definitely a lot of blood, and I don't really like hospitals that much, but I was just like, "Focus on the camera."
What makes Mariah laugh?
Being silly. My characters. She actually loves talking in characters and stuff. We're always around the house talking in different accents.
Have bạn gotten any crazy baby gifts from celebrity friends?
Sharon and Ozzy [Osbourne] bought us this life-sized stuffed giraffe. And some Gô tích thrones for the babies. That was a little... different.
You've already got "Mariah" tattooed across your entire back – will bạn get "Monroe" and "Moroccan" tattoos?
I don't know. I think I might be tattooed out. I was the person who đã đưa ý kiến I would never get tattoos. So even to have that on my back is a big ordeal.
bạn recently gave out your real trang chủ phone number on your New York morning radio show. What were bạn thinking?
Well, luckily, we have thêm than one line, so now the line in the phòng bếp, nhà bếp is designated for people to leave messages.
Have people been calling?
Oh, like crazy. It's mostly people calling to tell my wife how great she is, hoặc to sing for her. The people who call to tell me how much they tình yêu my radio hiển thị are few and far between. One dude called and blatantly just said, "Hey, I need $5,000." bạn gotta respect that – he came out and asked for what he wanted.
