Haters gonna hate. Nick Cannon is done being the butt of everyone’s jokes while raising 11 children — and fathering 12 — with six different women.“Right now the narrative is, ‘He has a bunch of kids,’” Cannon, 42, told the Los Angeles Times in an interview published on Sunday, May 7. “But I’m really at a place now where I don’t care what people know.

I’d rather just operate. It’s more about really being a good person instead of telling people you’re a good person.”The Masked Singer host revealed he’s “been villainized” for his choice to continue to grow his family with several different partners. “I hear all the time: ‘You can’t be present for all those children,’” he said. “So, therefore, I get this deadbeat dad title.”Cannon shares twins Moroccan and Monroe, 12, with ex-wife Mariah Carey.

He and Brittany Bell have welcomed three kids: Golden, 6, Powerful, 2, and Rise, 7 months.
