I absolutely adore our next guest.
He's the host of America's Got Talent
and the permanent co-host of a Mariah Carey.
Please welcome Nick Cannon.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
Look at you.
Always dapper.
Always.
You're ready for-- you're like a James Bond.
You're like a--
I like that.
Double O Cannon.
You stay ready, you never have to get ready.
Yeah.
Is that your motto?
That's my motto.
Always in a tux.
In the swimming pool, whatever, forget it.
Yeah.
You probably have little tux Speedos or something.
Yeah.
Like a little bow tie right there or something like that.
Bow tie right there.
You've seen them.
Uh-huh.
I have.
I've not seen you since you were our DJ.
Thank you for being kind enough to be
our DJ for our TBS special.
I think we have a picture.
Towards the end, we got up there,
and we're dancing a little bit together.
And--
In the tux.
There you are, in a tux.
We had fun.
That was grea-- oh--
Yeah, we were rocking it.
We were getting it low.
There we were.
It's going on.
Now, that was a lot of fun.
You did a great job.
That was fun.
And then you started hosting America's Got
Talent, which I love.
Thank you.
And you're doing such a great job.
You're so just lovable.
Aw.
I'm so glad people get to see more of you--
Thank you so much.
--and more of your personality.
And people are getting to see more of you now, too.
Congratulations on--
Thank you.
[INAUDIBLE]
Thank you very much.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
We're representing America well.
We are.
Yes.
Yes, we are.
And how is Mariah doing?
You just celebrated your one-year anniversary, too.
Congratulations.
Yes.
As well to you.
[CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
She's doing amazing.
Look at you two.
She's my wife.
I love her.
She's actually doing shows.
She has a few shows to launch her album in Vegas.
So she's doing that whole thing.
So she's in rehearsal and getting that going.
Yeah.
And where did you all meet?
We met-- I always say this.
I spoke our relationship into existence
because every time someone would ask me,
who's your celebrity crush or who do you love?
I was like, Mariah Carey.
Mariah Carey.
So one day, backstage at--
I think it was, like, the Teen Choice Awards--
she came along.
She's like, I heard all those really nice things that you've
been saying about me.
I was like, give me a chance.
I mean it.
And the entourage just escorted her off.
And I didn't see her again for, like, three more years.
But then after that, she requested
me to be in one of her videos.
And then it was one of--
we shot the video for a whole weekend
and haven't left each other's arms since.
And you just knew-- before you even met her,
you just could tell her personality and everything was
going to be what--
That was Mariah Carey.
Right.
Absolutely.
Yeah. you knew.
Everything, yeah.
Yeah.
[APPLAUSE]
I was like, that's my destiny right there.
And obviously, she feels the same way.
Do you just adore her?
Do you look at yourself and go, that's who
I kept dreaming about that I'm going to be with?
Absolutely.
I wake up and feel like the luckiest man every morning.
And it's just one of those things
where it's almost surreal.
I don't know.
People probably get sick of it.
Like, oh, whatever.
He can't be that in love.
But it's like, to live with someone that you have
the same personality, you have the same likes,
you have the same spirituality-- it just clicks.
It just works.
That's great.
Well, yeah, I--
You got that.
I got that, too.
Absolutely.
So I know.
But it feels good.
And you all should get it, too, if you don't have it.
Yeah, if you don't have it, go get it.
Go get some of that.
Don't settle for less, because it's out there.
And are you all going to have kids?
We want to.
Absolutely.
I want to be a father.
I think that's the whole purpose of marriage and stuff,
is to start a family.
So once we get our schedules in order,
once we get past all of the promotion and the albums
and the shows and stuff, that's a main priority.
So you've got to really focus on it and get it done.
But you don't want, like, the Brad and Angelina type.
You don't want that many kids.
The Rainbow Coalition kids?
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
I love that.
Everybody has a name, the Grand Theft Auto.
[APPLAUSE]
Yeah.
But I think we want to focus on obviously having our kids.
And then we'll add to it.
It'll be--
Yeah.
You'd make beautiful little children-- the two of you.
Thank you.
All right.
You and I are both--
I know that you're a huge game person.
Yes.
You love games.
I love games.
So we're going to play one of my favorite games
when we come back called Last Word.
You have to be quick with your mind on this game called
Last Word.
Uh-oh.
Have you seen the game before?
Do you know what it is?
I've played the game before, with--
OK.
--improv and all of that stuff.
All right.
So it's a subject matter.
And it's called Last Word because you
want to get your last word in before time runs out.
And you can't repeat, OK?
Right.
Massaging my brain.
I'm getting ready.
OK, good.
