Nick Cannon made sure he was seen out, on his own, in the wake of news that Mariah Carey was expecting. So he wouldn’t be left out of today’s reporting altogether. That’s smart. Dude seems confident in his own skin, but he must know he’s going to be overlooked. No womb? No deal. Seriously. We’re not interested. Swell up like Moo Moo has over the last few months, and you’ll get more of your own posts. The singer, 41, alongside her husband, confirmed on The Today Show that she was expecting. The interview was preview to a three-part exclusive coming up on Access Hollywood. She would not reveal a due date, saying only that it was ‘early’. The baby, according to reports and my own sources, is going to be a boy. Cannon, according to those in the know who were kind enough to email me the tip, revealed the news by accident during his recent 30th birthday party. Since Carey’s having a boy, not a girl, from what I gather, it’s the saddest thing in the world. It’ll be all the weirder when Carey ploughs on regardless with her plans to name her baby ‘Glitter Lollipop Bling Unicorn Canon’.
Back in June, Cannon joked about them already choosing baby names. And naming their kids something weird and feminine no matter the gender. ‘We’re gonna do it like George Foreman,’ Cannon, now 30, joked on his radio show. ‘We’re gonna name all of our kids Mariah no matter if they’re boys or girls. Mariah No. 1, Boy Mariah, Man Mariah, Tall Mariah. It’s gonna be a house full of people named Mariah.’ Foreman, the former world-champion boxer, 61, who has 11 children, named five of his sons George; George Jr., George III, George IV, George V, and George VI; distinguished from one another by nicknames.
