Nick Cannon is something else! During a recent appearance on the Howard Stern Show, the “Masked Singer” host attempted to list all of his kids in order of their birthdays and left out one.
“Moroccan and Monroe, which we call Roc and Roe, Golden, Powerful, and then Zion, Zillion, Zen,’ he listed. ‘And then from there, Legendary Love. Then there’s Rise.” After he reeled off his daughters Beautiful and Halo, Stern then pointed out that Cannon left out Onyx Ice Cole.

“You threw me off because I was going in order!” Cannon said while trying to take on the task of naming all his kids. The former Nickelodeon star repeated Powerful’s name before adding his daughters with De La Rosa and Scott: Beautiful, 5 months, and Halo, 3 months. Cannon has 12 children in total— eight sons and four daughters — with six different mothers.
Breaking Down The Family Tree
Cannon has 11-year-old fraternal twins, Monroe and Moroccan, with his ex-wife — Mariah Carey. He shares two sons — Golden Sagon, 6, and Rise Messiah, 6 months — and a daughter Powerful Queen, 2 — with Brittany Bell.
In addition to that, the actor has another set of twins, Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir, nearly two, and a four-month-old daughter named Beautiful Zeppelin with Abby De La Rosa.
Rounding up his family, Cannon also has a nine-month-old son, Legendary Love, with Selling Sunset star Bre Tiesi; daughter Onyx Ice, also 6 months, with LaNisha Cole. Busy Nick shares daughter Halo Marie, three months, with Alyssa Scott. As we previously reported, Cannon and the model were also parents to a son named Zen, who passed away in 2021 from a brain tumor. He was just 5 months old.
Aside from missing one of his children from the lineup while speaking with Stern, Cannon is a great and very active father. He previously spoke about why the mothers of his kid don’t
receive a monthly allowance:
“It ain’t even about a monthly allowance or amount of money because I don’t give myself that,” he explained while discussing his child support arrangement with each of the women. “What they need, they get it.”
Tiesi also seemed to confirm that when speaking to ET about how Cannon is able to be present for her and the other moms. She explained,
“He makes the schedule work. We can all go through the assistant to make sure it’s on the calendar if there’s anything important. But anything you say you need from him, this man always shows up. So, you know, we have X,Y and Z, it’s on the calendar, he’s there.”

Further into the interview with Stern, Cannon joked about the possibility of having his 13th kid… with Taylor Swift.
“I think she would relate to me very well, based off of like, yo, you’ve dated a lot of people in the public eye, so have I,” Cannon joked. “So we probably would really understand each other.”
Ultimately, Cannon said he is “happy now with the dozen that [he has] got.”
