Sometimes, when you believe hard enough (or when you get famous enough, at least), a lot of your dreams can come true. Moreover, that's what Nick Cannon expressed gratitude for, as he recently told The Shade Room during an interview that he used to have posters of Mariah Carey on his wall as a teen. Not only that, but the "Wild 'N Out" host also gushed about how special that particular relationship was to him. Of course, he went on to praise all the mothers of his children, but couldn't help but gush about his first.
Furthermore, he recounted the tale in quite a candid manner, and with the charisma and humor he's known for. "Like the greatest?" Cannon replied to a question about whether the singer is still the love of his life. "I mean, I always talk about that, then it goes viral and our fans get mad at me. But I was 12 years old with Mariah Carey pictures on my wall and that becomes my wife. And the fact that she’s the coolest person I ever met."

"I get a lot of this delightful disposition from her,” he continued. “She’s just always happy, always doing for others. No matter what’s happening in life. I’m like, ‘Wow, a person can really operate like that and don’t allow negative energy into they space.’ When I found that out about how remarkable she was, that woman is not human. She’s a gift from God." However, he also made sure to spread that positivity and love forward to the rest of his baby mamas.
"I love them,” the 42-year-old responded when asked whether he sees a future with his entire family. “They’re amazing!” referring to his partners. Right after, the interviewer asks whether he wants to maintain a strong relationship with them. “Yeah, they’re the mothers of my children!” he remarked. “But that’s a disservice to the other ones. I’ll be over here! And if you wanna see me, I’ll be at the house. How could I be lonely, I got 12 kids!"
