Drake may have had relations with Kanye West's wife - according to Kim's ex Nick Cannon. Nick gave an interview on Everyday Struggle, and he spilled tea on Kim Kardashian. He also gave his views on whether he believes Drake slept with Kim.
Nick told the interviewer that Kim is the brains of the family, "not Kris Jenner" Nick says (from his experience dealing with Kim) from the beginning Kim has always had a master plan and has sought out and executed it from the beginning. Kim started as a stylist/Paris Hilton's homegirl to finessing the family into a couple of billionaires. Nick says people who know how to manipulate the media will always win.
Akademiks says he thinks Drake smashed Kim K. Nick starts cheesing and says "that's not far out of a concept." Nick says there is something really personal going on. Nick says knowing Drake, Drake is the most calculated dude ever. Nick says there is something Drake holds over the whole family that they don't want out.
Here's the interview - the good part starts around 31:00.
Nick Cannon threatens to sue over claims of mental breakdown
Tyra Banks will be taking over the hosting duties for America’s Got Talent after Nick Cannon abruptly left the show last month.
The former supermodel turned media mogul confirmed the new gig in a statement:
Since I was a little girl, I’ve been obsessed with grandiose acts and performers who make the seemingly impossible possible. I love how AGT brings that feeling into everyone’s home, capturing the best of people who come out and give it their all to make those big, fierce and outrageous dreams come true. I look forward to connecting with the dreamers, having fun and giving hugs and words of encouragement when needed. And maybe I’ll get one or two performers to smize for the audience!
“Tyra is the complete package: Out-of-this-world talented, funny, brilliant and all heart. In whatever she has done, she has always connected with audiences around the world. Her vivacious spirit will infuse AGT in a big way,” said Paul Telegdy, president of alternative and reality group at NBC Entertainment.
“Not only is Tyra smart and beautiful, she’s also warm, compassionate and a lot of fun,” added Trish Kinane, president of entertainment programming at Fremantle North America. “She will fit right into the crazy world of AGT.”
Just a month ago, Cannon announced that he would be leaving the show, claiming that he would not return after executives punished him for a racial joke.
“I was to be punished for a joke. This has weighed heavy on my spirit. It was brought to my attention by my ‘team’ that NBC believed that I was in breach of contract because I had disparaged their brand,” he wrote on Facebook. “I find myself in a dark place having to make a decision that I wish I didn’t have to, but as a man, an artist, and a voice for my community I will not be silenced, controlled or treated like a piece of property. There is no amount of money worth my dignity or my integrity.”
“I wish AGT and NBC the best in its upcoming season but I cannot see myself returning,” Cannon later said. “Most of us don’t realize that there are 6 major corporations that control 90 percent of media in America and the amount of minority executives is dismal. With this being the case, true equality in our industry is impossible. There will always be a ‘do as I say’ mentality that mirrors society’s perception of women and minorities, and only a few will stand up against it. I proudly stand as one of those few, and will gladly take on whatever repercussions that come with it.”
Insiders reportedly fear for Nick Cannon’s mental health
Recently, The National Enquirer ran a story about Nick Cannon, claiming that he had suffered a mental breakdown and that his ex-wife, Mariah Carey, was trying to get sole custody of their children. Now, Cannon is threatening to sue the outlet over the story. “MORE LIES!!! So the @enquirer wants to play around with my children. Only Evil operates in this manner. What is the purpose? Except to exemplify pure immoral wickedness. If you report these lies expect a slander and defamation lawsuit. Look everyone, see how the media is trying to break a King?” he wrote on Instagram. “It’s all good though, I’m a warrior! I was built for this! Me and my family, my mindset, and my spirit are all stronger than ever. I felt like releasing this so called ‘journalist’ info to the public so you all can get at them, but instead I release nothing but positive energy into the Universe. No weapon formed against me shall prosper! I receive help through prayer and patience! #Blessed #Awakened.”

Nick Cannon just quit his job hosting America’s Got Talent, and he has also fired his advisers, including ID-PR publicist Alla Plotkin and ICM Patners agent Chris Smith.
Moves like that, apparently, have insiders concerned.
Sources tell Page Six that people close to the comedian and media personality say they are concerned about his state of mind. What’s more, they say, Cannon “got really into religion” lately and has been wearing robes and a turban. He reportedly refers to himself as “Reverend Dr. Cannon,” though he is not necessarily attached to a specific religion.
Cannon, who was recently hospitalized due to lupus complications, has also been posting this weekend on social media about depression and “pain.”
Cannon wrote on Monday that he would not be returning to America’s Got Talent because “NBC believed that I was in breach of contract because I had disparaged their brand” after he made a joke about his “black card” being revoked for hosting that show.
Nick Cannon on Celebrities Gang Banging: "It's a Source of Insecurity...." [Video]
You will soon be able to watch Nick Cannon‘s new film King of the Dancehallon YouTube Red. Last year during an interview, Cannon revealed that the film will be available to the public at the top of the new year. Seems he is making good on his promise because The Hollywood Reporter reported on Monday that YouTube Red has acquired the rights to the film from the actor. Susanne Daniels, global head of original content at YouTube, confirmed the acquisition while noting that dance films perform very well on the video-sharing social media site. This would not be surprising given that YouTube is a haven for music videos and dance classics. “We are excited to be in business with a multi-talented creative force like Nick Cannon,” Daniels said. “Whether he’s acting, producing or hosting, he has an undeniable ability to make a connection with the audience and keep them captivated. We know our audience, especially the millions of music and dance fans, will be excited to see him back in a lead role. This drama has all the right elements to be incredibly popular on YouTube.”
King of the Dancehall is starred by Nick Cannon himself along with plenty other big names like Whoopi Goldberg, Beenie Man, Ky-Mani Marley, Louis Gossett Jr., Busta Rhymes, Kreesha Turner, Kimberly Patterson, and many other dancehall personalities making cameos in the film including Sean Paul.
In 2015, Cannon and his team traveled to Kingston Jamaica at the heart of Jamaican dancehall culture to shoot the film. That was the first time the actor/rapper was visiting the island and he said he immediately fell in love with the people and the culture. He played a man from Brooklyn who ran away to Jamaica and fell in love with a beautiful island girl who then introduces him to dancehall culture. The rest as the saying goes is history.
Nick Cannon also revealed that Vybz Kartel helped him to craft the script for the movie although he is behind bars for murder. The film was premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival last year where it received raved reviews.

"I'm on the ground level," he said, "I do so much that people don't know about...to make sure these young people have opportunities." From there, Nick describes his career arc, from growing up in a rough neighborhood, to breaking onto Nickelodeon, to making money and gratifying his ego, and now to giving back to his community. He also states that while a lot of celebrities claim gangs, it's a source of insecurity and that he "never wants to glorify it."

Nearly four months after separating, Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey's marriage is officially over.
TMZ reports that Nick filed for for divorce on December 12. After a whirlwind romance the soon-to-be ex-couple got married in The Bahamas on April 30, 2008.

AMERICAN actor/television personality Nick Cannon is currently in Jamaica trying get a first-hand taste and feel of the island as he seeks to promote his latest charge Kreesha Turner.
The Wild 'N Out personality, who is on his first trip to the island, is here to soak in the sights, sounds, and tastes of the island in order to inform himself as he works with Turner, who was born in Canada and raised in Jamaica. She fuses reggae and dancehall music with other influences to arrive at her sound.
"From the moment I met Kreesha, she kept telling me about Jamaica... I had been to some of the other islands, but not Jamaica... so I had to come see what it's all about," Cannon told the media.
"We are here supporting Kreesha's project, exploring the culture to make sure I touch the people in a real way," he added.
Cannon and Turner are in the island promoting her single Sexy Gal, which also features dancehall quartet T.O.K. Turner is signed to his Ncredible Entertainment label.
Cannon disclosed that he would like to work with local acts, but is new to the culture and therefore is taking it slow.
"Right now, I'm paying attention to who's picking up in the clubs and dances because I always want to get it right. However, right now, my focus is to get Kreesha popping here in Jamaica. I believe in authenticity and being organic so I'm just paying attention and getting more engulfed in the culture before making any move like that," he stated.
He is committed to getting Turner to mainstream and, therefore, is not looking to sign another female act from Jamaica at this time in order to prevent conflicts of interest.
Cannon's Jamaican recce has seen him enjoying lobster on the beach at Hellshire in Portmore.

In an interview with another station a week later, he tried to backtrack over his comments and praised his wife's sex skills.

Goes to show how organized big Corp owners inflict pain towards everyone who refuses to do what their rich affiliated business partners tells them what to do. What they are telling Nick in so many words is that we are affiliated against you now,,, on all aspects of the board. Nick has to be very careful now especially when attending doctors, hospitals, public settings and so much more due to these organized terrorist who control the entertainment world. Elvis, Whitney, Bruce Lee and so many others entertainers have been victims to these mentally ill employers of the wicked entertainment business.

Comment by Wycliff on February 17, 2017 at 11:30pm
I noticed a long time ago that Nick Cannon is a very serious person don't let the smile fool you. Since NBC put itself first and try to disrespect him, I am not surprise that he terminate his contract with them and tell everyone around him to go to hell. If you research and see some of Nick Cannon's works, you will get a sense of who he really is; if you miss his militarism that's your problem. Thanks to Jah he has talent and he knows it so he does not have to be a Coon for NBC or anyone else. Caribbean Fever watch yourselves, I heard funny things about y'all over there.
Didn't Nick say that Mariah was having mental problems. Is this catching or something?
